My spec sheets say 4C continuous, but I'd feel safe with 3C max. Then I would have true power through all my RPMs, exceeding the original gas engine torque considerably.

I need to hook up my netbook to my Zilla tomorrow, but I think I have a 65-75 A continuous cruising draw on my pack, maybe upwards of 100 A when around 45-50 MPH.
