I have a wall plug that supplies 12 volts and is rated for 2 amps, and I want to use it to supply power to this DC motor.
The motor's spec sheet indicates its idle current is 0.6 amps, which is perfectly in range. However, the stall current is 14 amps. Do I have to worry about blowing any fuses if the stall current is reached (i.e. either the circuit breaker in my house is tripped or the wall plug catches on fire), or does the wall plug handle this (i.e. 2 amps is the max output, and the motor cannot draw more than that)?
For more context, in my project, the stall current should never really be reached. I plan on attaching a flywheel to the DC motor to shoot out ping pong balls periodically, so there will be brief spikes in current required by the motor.
