I like your solution better than Dr. Joe's. But please tell: Are you proposing a EE solution that steps down the voltage outboard of the Victor, or a software solution where the PWM signal is limited to a precalculated value, so that the effective voltage at the motor is 9.6v? (Or something else? Will the Victors work properly if you limit their input voltage?)
