Jan 5, 2020 at 8:58 comment added Nizam mulk @Peter Paul Kiefer thanks for replying! well that sucks lol I am thinking of using these batteries but i dont know how to connect them the 9v block battery is only for powering the uno device but I still haven't figured out how to connect the lion or lipo to the motor is there a way I could use rechargeable batteries and plug the uno directly into a dc power source without the use of any batteries. Or if you can help with a new circuit diagram and codes? I would appreciate it. Note all of the products I bought are Chinese apart from the uno.

Jan 4, 2020 at 17:59 comment added Peter Paul Kiefer @EdgarBonet Yes, that's right. That's why I wrote "Check the current consumption of the relay." I don't know whether it is a MOSFET or a NPN, so the impedence might not be enough for a PIN13 that has to drive the on board LED also. And you are complete right: If it is a MOSFET even PIN13 would work.
