I noticed 200 or a needle width less on the first ascent and it did hit 195+ when we looped around to confirm that. Close enough...

Not a problem. 195+ uphill - that's funny.
Let's call it 195 amps then. Benchmarked!
I've since done a bit of reading on the Citi/ComutaCar Yahoo group and the opinion there is that a 48v Curtis 225A controller such the ForkenSwift's *will* result in both slower accel and a lower top speed than those cars' original contactor controller. Bodes well for a controller bypass experiment. MORE AMPS!
And, it looks like the Kingsway broker has found us an insurer (though not Kingsway, ironically). Fingers crossed, I'll know for sure tomorrow.
