Just because Lonex makes good parts, doesn't mean they make EVERYTHING good, it's all but impossible in airsoft for one company to do everything right.
Sure, they've got a good motor, it just occasionally munches through brushes like the cookie monster though mrs.fields cookies.
Systema made an amazing motor too, it just shorted through it's own end bell cause they didn't assemble it right lol

eagle force and tienly motors are hand made, I assume they mean hand wound and balanced.
Either way, both my M4 and 249 were experts at motor munching, they ate two G&P M120s, a G&P M140 and almost killed a marui EG1000, each of those motor were serviced by an RC tech, comms were cut, armatures rebalanced and spring tensions adjusted to give optimal performance and they still all got killed.
Stock eagle force EF1300, lasted 3 years and the comm turned pitch black, cleaned it, still works fine. Been overheated just about every time I've used the 249, it is one tough ass motor.
The only downside is it's a bit on the slow side being wound as a torque motor, my G&P M140 gives an extra 200rpm, but I'm pretty darn certain it's because I'm using triple torque gears. If I was running high speed gears that required more torque than speed, I believe the eagle force would win out, or at the very least consume significantly less amperage.

Is there a place in the GTA where I can buy locally or do I have to order from triggerairsoft or the states? My CA motor works but has a fairly high number of TPA so the speed is quite low.

I told him what happened to the first motor, and he gave me the second one free. He said he doesn't have the time to go around figuring out what's wrong with everything. I don't really want to spend $20 on gas to bother him with more motor problems just to have another motor that lasts a week.
