I cannibalized this rumble motor out of a cell phone,
The battery from the Phone is 3.7v. Am I right in assuming the motor is the same? Will it be a good choice in a saber with USv2.5 and seoul P4 (green)?
FYI thats a dime.

And most likely not. Use a multimeter to check the voltage on the pads for the motor if you can, or see if it has any markings and try to look up a datasheet for it.

using the knowledge of tiny rumble motors that i have, i'm guessing that your motor is actually a 1.5-2.5V 50-70mA motor. too bad the image link is broken or i would probably be able to tell you more specifically. ^_^

I decided to scrap the motor idea. I'll save it for another build. I think, the size of the counter balance is my main issue. I am looking for a slight vibration. So, a small counter balance should achieve just that.
How is a counter balance going to make vibrations?

The counter balance on a rumble motor is the half moon shaped weight spins on the spindle. The bigger the size, of the weight will off balance the motor with a more noticeable vibration.
I know how a rumble motor works.
I just misread your post, thinking you just meant using a counter balance without a motor.
