    More than likely it's a transformer or type of relay . I just put them in with elec.motors , as seperating the wire from the tape is not cost effective how ever if it is a solid coil of wire just cut some of the wire and it should begin to unravel with out to much problem. I still put those kind in the elec. motor bucket. Hope this helps. wb

    I can definitely understand your reasoning on the VERY SMALL ones, but the ones that are not small, are worth the time and effort. Copper is the most expensive thing, and I am sure anyone would rather get paid more for than, then electric motors.

    What I do with the very small ones, is put them in a 5 gallon bucket, wait till I have 2 or 3 buckets and sell them.
