I've myself have seen up over 500W sustained for about ~1Hr .. as seen from the HV side (V x A ) for DC-DC only use .. as reported on the OBDII-C&C .. When I used it as a whole pack level discharger.

With very few loads I've also seen it go down to under 200W.

But if you are looking for more in depth information .. or absolute max / min .. Peter and Mudder are the people to ask.

PeterP (UK) .. Some is in his

Mudder (US) .. Some is in his
