- Glyptodon 2y agoA big factor with this will be how inexpensive they are relative to something that's more maintenance friendly. If you can get five of them for the price of a similar traditional electric motor I imagine it might be worth planning to swap and never service yourself. Particularly the longer they tend to last.

Nobody fixes fractional Watt induction motors. When a coil burns out (or whatever), it goes to the landfill (perhaps along with the whole appliance).
