Building Block Power Accessories, Motor, Infrared Remote, Receiver and AA Battery Case Options
Estimated delivery: 3–10 days
Item details Materials, dimensions, what is in the box
Building block power accessories let you choose a motor, infrared remote, infrared receiver or AA battery case for your building projects. Select the component you need rather than assuming every accessory is included. The available options support different parts of a powered, remote-controlled build.
Use the infrared receiver with the matching remote to help avoid incompatibility caused by different frequencies. The AA battery case requires six AA batteries, which are not included. If using a servo motor in your setup, do not connect it directly to the battery box, as this can burn out the motor.
Choose your option carefully before ordering and handle the small parts with care during assembly. These accessories are recommended for ages 14 and up and are not suitable for children under 3 because of small parts. Parts may have minor wear or scratches from packaging, especially on larger pieces.

What problem does it solve?
Add power or remote control to your building block projects with the individual component you need. Whether you’re choosing a motor, an infrared receiver, a remote or an AA battery case, separate options let you focus on the part your setup calls for instead of choosing a full bundle.
Pair the receiver with the matching remote to help avoid frequency mismatches, and plan for six AA batteries if you choose the AA battery case.
The problem in numbers
- US teens ages 13–18 averaged 8 hours and 39 minutes of entertainment screen media daily in 2021, excluding school and homework. (Common Sense Media, 2022)
- Entertainment screen use among US teens increased by 17% between 2019 and 2021. (Common Sense Media, 2022)
- US teens spent 23 more minutes per day watching online videos in 2021 than in 2019. (Common Sense Media, 2022)
These figures provide context for offering hands-on alternatives to screen-based entertainment, not evidence that these accessories reduce screen time. The selectable motor, infrared-control and battery-case components support building block projects for ages fourteen and up.
Why choose this one?
Choose this one for its component-by-component selection: motor, infrared receiver, infrared remote and AA battery case options let you shop for your build’s specific needs. You can select a power component or a control component without treating them as an all-in-one kit.
The AA case uses six AA batteries, giving you a clear battery requirement to plan around. For remote-controlled builds, choose the matching remote and receiver together to help avoid frequency incompatibility. Batteries are purchased separately.
What exactly do you get?
Your package depends on the option you select: M Motor, Infrared Receiver, Infrared Remote or AA Battery Case. These are separate selections, not a package containing all four components. Choose the style that matches the part you want to add to your building block project.
For an infrared setup, use the receiver alongside its matching remote. The AA battery case holds six AA batteries; you’ll need to supply those separately. If your build includes a servo motor, avoid a direct connection to the battery box to prevent motor damage.
Frequently asked questions

What are these accessories used for?
These are power and remote-control components for building block projects. Choose the component that suits your planned setup.
Which options can I choose?
The available options are M Motor, Infrared Receiver, Infrared Remote and AA Battery Case. Select the option you need when ordering.
Does one order include every accessory?
Package contents depend on your selected option. Do not assume the motor, remote, receiver and battery case all come together.
How many batteries does the AA battery case need?
The AA battery case requires six AA batteries. Batteries are not included, so purchase them separately.
Can I use the infrared receiver with any remote?
Use the receiver with its matching remote to help avoid incompatibility. Differences in frequency can prevent other remotes from working with it.
Can I connect a servo motor straight to the battery box?
Do not connect a servo motor directly to the battery box. A direct connection can burn out the servo motor.
What age are these accessories recommended for?
The recommended age is 14 years and up. Keep the small components away from children under 3.
Are these accessories suitable for toddlers?
No, these accessories are not suitable for children under 3 because they contain small parts. They are intended for builders ages 14 and older.
Could the parts arrive with scratches?
Minor wear or scratching can occur because of how the parts are packaged. Larger pieces may be particularly affected.
What is the difference between the motor and AA battery case options?
The M Motor option is the motor component, while the AA Battery Case option holds the batteries for power. Choose based on which component your build requires.
What should I check before buying these as a gift?
Check which component the recipient needs and whether they meet the recommended age of 14 and up. If you choose the AA battery case, remember to provide six AA batteries separately.
