Well what I planned to do was use 4 similar motors to drive a winch of sorts, that would lift my LCD TV up and down a stationary pole that I have in my room.

I asked around and found that the CIM's would lift the appropriate 25 pounds that my TV and 4 CIM's weigh. The only problem is, I don't want to have a car battery sitting at the foot of my bed.

Is there another electric motor that I can cluster together to lift the 20 pounds of my TV and 3 others of itself just running from 120V AC current?

EDIT: I also plan to control them with DPDT switches and would like to know if this (http://www.radioshack.com/product/index.jsp?productId=2062516&numProdsPerPage=60&y=1 0&x=13&retainProdsInSession=1) is the right switch for the job.

EDIT2: I also plan to wrap the whole controller in a project box so I'll need some tips on soldering the wire to a power cord.
