Re: How do you wire a VEX motor to a 12 V battery?

You would use a Spike or a Jaguar or a Victor or a VEX Speed Controller (the small one that came in the KOP).

If you use a Spike, it will get full battery voltage...which may or may not be a problem, depending on how you load the motor (what the shaft is connected to)
