    I thought that's what you were going to post.....
    I actually got the paralell version from you a while back. The problem for me is, all my batts have females on the positive(I thought that was what most people do...?), and capacitors are polarity specific(ask me how I know... ) It also is a bit awkward for most of my applications, seemed like a short circuit waiting to happen being that it would most likely be floating around mostly uncovered, also it only has a total of 940uf, where I was really looking for a lot more.........

    I may just desolder and reverse the capacitors on mine so I can try it out on something eventually......

      Calibrate the Swordfish 300 at 100% or maybe a little less, then turn the radio up.

        Calibrated at 100% travel, made a pass, went to 110%, 120%,130%,140%, 150%. Logging had throttle input at 84%, then 91%, then 99%, the 100%. Looks like I need to be at 125% to get full throttle. 65 mph on the gps now:), MUCH better!
        Aside from wiring logistics, so far this thing seems great. Was pulling a max of 238 amps and data logging read 70 deg C, external meter said 124 deg F I think......
