powering Banebots RS395
This is more out of curiosity than practicality.
We have an RS395 motor from Banebots this year. It's tiny. It draws 0.5A no-load, and 15A stalled. At peak power it's about 1/10 of a CIM.
So the question is, how do you power it?
If you use a Spike Relay, you can us a 5A fuse to keep the motor from burning out.
What if you use a Victor or a Jaguar? Then your protection is none whatsoever.
It seems that we don't have a variable-speed controller SMALL enough for this motor. I suppose if we could put ATC fuses in the PD board (and I mean FUSES, not auto-resetting breakers), then we could adequately protect it.
What would it be good for in the first place?
