Both are 570oz however one draws 5A the other 3.5A.
Why would I choose one over the other.

Hi jazz411 ,

if you wish to use an all in one stepper driver and breakout board
the 4 wire motors 3.5A current is the maximum current for the G540 for example


the 8 wire motor with the windings connected in series has the highest
inductance and a 2.5A current
for high step rates you will need a higher motor supply voltage

when connected in parallel the lowest inductance that should give you the fastest speed
but at the cost of needing a more expensive individual 5A stepper drivers
and breakout board

Oh that's easy the 5A has the potential to run faster without losing as much torque.

Thanks.
