Actually, it would be a fairly tiny one by Ohm's Law, assuming we're talking 12V since its through a breaker
V = IR
12 = 10R
R = 1.2 ohms
Our pots are nearly 5000 times 'bigger'! Of course, I'm just being silly now.
Back on topic, why do you say not to connect it to a speed controller? The position control mode on Jaguars can use the potentiometers (though I don't personally find it actually works that well).
EDIT:
Actually, since you'd be dissipating about 120W, you would need a fairly large physical pot to absorb that kind of heat!
Ok, really I'm gonna put on my serious face now
