Hi from Joe: Your bout at Radio Shack w their qualified in house shoe salesman sounds typical.
If you carefully read the motor pkg label it will show a [very ] brief statement of rated current on the order of an amp. This is normally taken to mean full load current draw which occurs at rated load speed & sometimes isn't listed. If you use a pot to control from a 12Vdc source & no series dropping resistance, you can easily exceed the power rating at near the lower pot stop. You'll know about it when it goes SST & stinks. Can kill a supply if it is less than 1A rated; plug in the wall units have NO overload protection. Have a better day today.
