This wire (Biometal Helix 150) eats 150 – 200 mA of current and can lift more than 30 grams. 30 grams is the recovery force, which returns the wire to extended lenght after switching-off the power.
There are also thiner wires with less power requirements and are much more faster. Of course they are also weaker.
It looks stunning! …
It looks stunning! Supersmooth action. You apply 4.8V and how much weight is on the plate?
