Micro metal gearmotor @ 9V?

hi there,
sorry i couldn’t the clear answer elsewhere : is it fine for the motor if i use the micro metal gearmotor with a 9V tension ??
i understand the standard tension is supposed to be 6V, but i’d like a little more speed without having to re-order a different gear ratio motor : so how bad would it be for the motors to have a 9V tension ?
thanks
raphael.

Hi there, my very bad!
The information is given on the very first lines of the article description : "should be working fine from 3 to 9 v"
sorry…

Hello, Raphael.

I am glad you were able to find the information that you were looking for. In general, using a brushed DC motor at higher voltages does increase speed and torque but also decreases the over all lifetime of the motor.
