Re: Battery Chargers
 

Devin,
This is a common misconception. A CIM motor has a stall current of 130 amps. This is what it draws when ever you start moving. A four motor drive puts a momentary 400+ amp load on the battery. Anytime the robot runs into something or your driver changes direction or if your design uses tank with four wheels on the ground, your battery is seeing a big load. You can't help it.
