    Testing with Eagle Tree data logger

    I got to do a bit of testing today with my new Data logger, what an absolutely brilliant tool.

    Sorry I didn't record the graph, but data as follows -

    The Triton with 8XL,4S and X442
    Peak amps 90
    Average amps 75
    Peak watts 1000
    Top speed 45 mph

    Twin Jolly with 2 x Ammos, 2 x 4S, and 2 x K40s
    Peak amps 65 X 2
    Average amps 50 X 2
    Peak watts 700 X 2
    Top speed - guess about 45 - 50 mph.

    Both of these are pretty much where I was hoping they would be so it was good to prove my guestimations were close.

    Following discusions on a previous thread I had set the low voltage cut out to a conservative 3.4 volts per cell ( 13.6 total ) but I found a bit of 'stuttering' now and then which the data logger confirmed was being caused by the voltage dipping down to 12.9 volts now and then tripping the cut out.
    I have reset this to 3.2 volts ( 12.8 total).

    Bingo - No more guesswork or fried electronics ( touch wood ).
