could someone please explain the two currents she is speaking of?
Your electric motor will draw a set number of amps while cruising, but also under acceleration it will draw more, so you want batteries that can handle that sustained output but also something that can handle a 10 second or so peak output, that peak output can also be limited by your controller.
