It should have no problem running at 12 volts with not fan on.

Only the 885 is rated for 48 volts and this model is not available for use on FIRST robots. Although the controller may run at 24 volts, the internal voltage regulator may get too hot for continuous duty at this voltage. The 884 and it's predeccessor the 883, are rated for 12 volts continuous duty.
