Hi Things

I am using a completely separate 12v DC supply - so that should not have dropped out,

I've taken the Chevy contactors off and after a rattle they both work - I will use them for isolation for my charger

The Device is intended for the track as well as the road - but I will be thinking about making some form of traction control

re- 3 times rated load
The actual contactors are rated at 120amps - from the Panasonic spec
The Chevy is 80kw at 360v = 220amps

I was to busy to look at the CA when I lost traction but I have Paul's controller set to 1200amps

I just may have been up around 1000amps
