[quote]QUOTE: Originally posted by Don Gibson THE manufacturer determines the probable amp requirements for 'normal' useage.[/quote] Don, while I know that's true, LL obviously went overboard with the motors int he early PAs. So much so that they still offer a free replacement. My "low current" GP9 has almost exactly the same drawbar pull when the wheels slip, yet it draws half the current. My remotored 2lb Akane AC-9 outpulls both of them, and at a mere 278mA. The manufacturers may make the call, but that doesn't mean they're right. <eagerly awaiting his new motors> -dave
