Considder the Automation Direct stepper

STP-MTR-34066
Stepper motor, 434 oz-in holding torque,
2.8 A/phase, 1.8 degrees /
fullstep (200 steps/revolution),
NEMA size 34.
12-inch cable contains 4 leads
terminated with a connector.

and their response on voltage rating
"Thank you for your inquiry.
The resistance of the STP-MTR-34066 motor
is 1.11 ohms. So, doing the math the
voltage is 2.8 * 1.11 = 3.108 volts"


along with a Gecko, the stepper is $99 and the Gecko is $125.

between the two that should move things around abit.
