Re: 2 Speeds

in my experience the 40 amp breakers are not the first thing to go, in a 4 cim drivetrain, 40*4 =160, so shouldn't the 120 amp main breaker pop first? in testing our drive this year we were having a little fun dragging some team members around the floor, and we never had any of the 40 amp breakers pop, the 120 amp breaker got hot enough after 5 min to pop.
