Hi gurus,
    many thanks for your suggestions about driving a motor from PIC's 
pin. Now I have another question about electric motors and
PIC. Now that I can drive a motor by the PIC, I want to watch the status 
of the motor (is running? or the Is it powered?) by another PIC:
in short, I want a kind of telemetry control about the motors.

I was thinking to connect a transistor on the line that power the motor 
and to put the output straight to the PIC, but I do not know if
this solution is correct and which transistor can I use.

Thanks,
    Max.
