One small point.  If you have access to a volt meter, could you check if
your wall transformer really is putting out 12Vdc.  Many of those
adjustable transformers are notorious for being more then they are
rated.  I'm curious how much voltage you are really driving that motor
with.

i'll check but i'm almost sure about that


Also you might be able to have a "more lego" solution in terms of power,
if you build a battery box adder. as seen here:

i saw that
that's why i tied more voltage :)


Dave Koudys has a post about voltage starting here
