Motoron M2S24v16 Dual High-Power Motor Controller Shield for Arduino (w/ Connectors)
Description
- Motoron M2S24v16 Dual High-Power Motor Controller Shield for Arduino (w/ Connectors)
- Enables control of two high-power DC motors via an I²C interface
- Compatible with motor supply voltages from 6.5V to 40V
The Motoron M2S24v16 Dual High-Power Motor Controller Shield for Arduino (w/ Connectors) is a meticulously designed device that enables the control of two high-power DC motors from an Arduino or Arduino-compatible board via an I²C interface. It is compatible with motor supply voltages ranging from 6.5 V to 40 V and is capable of delivering continuous output currents of up to 16 A per motor. This particular model is equipped with soldered stackable headers and terminal blocks.
The Motoron M2S series of dual high-power motor controller shields are designed to facilitate the independent control of two bidirectional, brushed DC motors with an Arduino or a compatible board. What sets the Motoron apart from most motor drivers and motor driver shields is that it does not necessitate any PWM outputs or timers on your Arduino. Instead, the Arduino communicates with the Motoron via I²C, requiring only two I/O lines.
The M2S24v16 shield is compatible with motor supply voltages from 6.5 V to 40 V and can deliver continuous output currents of up to 16 A per motor. This shield can be identified from other M2S shields by its larger discrete MOSFETs and the number 100 on top of the tall silver electrolytic capacitors.

The terminal blocks on the Motoron M2S high-power motor drivers are taller than the headers, hence they should only be installed on the top Motoron in the stack. The 5mm blue terminal blocks are rated for up to 16 A. For higher-current applications, it is advisable to procure an unsoldered version and then solder thick wires directly to the board.
The Motoron M2S24v16 Dual High-Power Motor Controller Shield is equipped with two motor control channels for independent control of up to two bidirectional brushed DC motors, reverse-voltage protection on motor power supply, and a logic voltage range of 3.0 V to 5 V. It also features a control interface: I²C clock speed of up to 400 kHz, configurable motion parameters, current sensing, configurable hardware current limiting, command timeout feature, motor power supply (VIN) voltage measurement, two status LEDs, and motor direction indicator LEDs. It also includes a Motoron Arduino library and a comprehensive user’s guide.

Refund Policy
If you are not satisfied with a product purchased from the Site, you may request a return within 30 days from the delivery date, unless the product is listed under the Return Exceptions below or is subject to specific return conditions noted on the product page.
This return policy also applies, as a minimum standard, to products sold and fulfilled by third-party vendors through the Marketplace.
Please review the Return Conditions, Return Exceptions and the process on How to Request a Return Authorisation (RA) before initiating a return request.
United Kingdom consumers exercising their statutory Right of Cancellation are subject to different conditions. See the Statutory Right of Cancellation.
Returns under this policy concern non-defective products. In the case of a confirmed manufacturing defect, remedies are handled under the Warranty terms, at the Vendor's discretion. See the Warranty section.
Return Conditions
To qualify for a refund under the 30-day return policy, all of the following conditions must be met:
- A valid Return Authorisation (RA) number must be obtained prior to returning the product. Returns without an RA number will be refused.
- The RA number is valid for 30 days. The returned item must be received within that period.
- The RA number must be included with the return.
- Products must be returned in unused, unmodified condition (e.g., no scratches, alterations, missing parts, or signs of installation/use) and in their original packaging, suitable for resale.
- Shipping fees are non-refundable. Return shipping costs are the responsibility of the customer, except in cases of a product confirmed defective through RobotShop's troubleshooting process or of a verified shipping error by RobotShop.
- Refunds are processed within 7 days after receipt and inspection of the returned item.
- A £100 cleaning fee may apply to domestic robots returned in used or unclean condition.
- A 20% restocking fee may apply to large-quantity returns of items ordered specifically for the customer from the manufacturer or not part of RobotShop's standard inventory.
Return Exceptions
The following products are not eligible for return or refund under this policy:
- Used, damaged, or modified products — Items that show signs of use, wear, or alteration, making them unsuitable for resale.
- Consumables * — Use and wear-and-tear components, altered or depleted through use (e.g., batteries, belts, brushes, gears, filament, tyres, disposable bags, lubricants, greases, waxes, etc.). Not eligible for return once opened or used.
- Perishables — Goods liable to deteriorate or expire rapidly. Not eligible for return.
- Sealed goods (health or hygiene) — Items sealed for health-protection or hygiene reasons (e.g., masks, gloves, odour-absorbing products). Not eligible for return once unsealed.
- Build-it-yourself products and items requiring customer assembly * — Including robots & kits, robot parts, and other products requiring assembly or soldering. Not eligible for return once assembled, soldered, or installed.
- Digital Goods, Software, and Apps * — Final sale only, due to licensing restrictions.
- Clearance Items * — Products identified as clearance or final sale, including end-of-life or discontinued items.
- Custom-made, personalized, or special-order items — Products manufactured, configured, adapted, or built to the customer's own specifications and requirements.
- On-Demand Items * — Standard catalogue products not stocked by RobotShop and ordered specifically to fulfil a customer request.
- Professional & Specialized Equipment — See the Professional & Specialized Equipment Warranty page and Professional & Institutional Buyers (B2B) section in the Terms & Conditions.
* United-Kingdom consumers retain their statutory Right of Cancellation on these items. Its exercise is subject to the conditions and exclusions set out in the Statutory Right of Cancellation, and any reimbursement may be reduced to reflect a loss in value resulting from handling beyond inspection.
How to Request a Return Authorisation (RA)
While the same return policy applies, these orders require a separate contact process for returns.
- RobotShop Fulfilled Orders → submit a support ticket from your account under My Support Tickets.
- Marketplace Vendor Orders → submit a ticket from your account under My Marketplace Tickets to contact the vendor directly.
Note: Marketplace vendor products are normally labelled with SKUs starting with RM, and identified on the product page with the mention "Sold and fulfilled by [Vendor Name]".
