I'm curious Al- what are the limitations of the Jaguars current sensing ability? I'm vaguely acquainted with standalone Hall effect current sensor IC's, and I know they can be fairly sensitive and have wicked fast response times. Do the Jaguars use something different or just operate on a different scale then the tiny applications I'm accustomed to?
