maybe you can consider digital potentiometer instead ?

Subject: What is the estimated torque ?


Hi all,

Just received a sample for a low torque potentiometer. As i checked it, I
found that it is not suitable for my application. The torque is not low
enough eventhough the potentiometer is classified as low torque. As such I
would like to enquire, what is the estimated torque such that I can turn the
shaft of a potentiometer using only one finger? Or maybe in another way...
what is the torque for a normal desktop fan? Is such a potentiometer (with
that level of torque) available?

Thanks..

Best rgds,
Pang
