Thoughts?
The controller will act like a speed controller but it will not be able to provide your motor with the power it will need to operate at its potential. You would be better off using a DPDT switch and servo. This combination will give your lift motor full voltage and last a very long time and not to mention that it is extremely cheap to make.
