That's great. I hope wiper motors can take that kind of continuous actuation -- it's not really what they're designed for. I'm sure they'll stress test the hell

- gpm 7y agoDriving for hours in heavy rain results in pretty continuous actuation of wiper motors. I'm far from a mechanic but I can't say I've ever heard of a wiper motor failing either. I'm sure they have real data on it instead of this handwaving, but as an outsider I would be surprised if it was an issue.
- Frondo 7y agoNot a comment on the ventilator made from a wiper motor, but I have had one fail, and had to have it replaced for something like $255. All mechanical parts will fail (the antikythera device isn't still operational, but that's a pretty long-lived device!), it's just a matter of when and why.
