Can get more dense than that? As seen on rally... Hammo ( I was wondering what I'd say if you called me hot).

Ok, I'd be interested to see what power, as in electrical requirements the ignition and fuel management systems use as well as a comparo with the size, type and construction of the battery system. We haven't considered double layers and its effect on the flow of electricity. This is more of a common problem in batteries that have a gel type compound, but seeing as I don't know if they are used on a 24 V system, we may as well check that too. Measuring the voltage and current output of the bus at "idle" and then compare these two when lights are on, or at least the drop in same may be better way to determine the "power" required. I am also betting that it will be considerable greater than Big's claim that it will the amount that it is rated as. Hammo (awaits Clem........)
