Hi, I have tried to control the speed of a small DC 12 volt motor so I could vary its speed easily in the lower speed ranges.
This met with no success as the DC model train controller I used allowed the motor to creep up in speed to the point where the motor speed was more than I set it.
My next idea is to use a small single phase, single speed,shaded pole, AC motor. I just purched a new solid state AC fan motor blower speed controller on Ebay. Have not tried it out yet.
My question is this: Can someone tell me if a new solid state AC controller will allow me to dial in very low shaded pole motor speeds and keep them to whatever low speed setings I wish? Thats without the motor speed creeping up on its own for whatever reason.
