I'm a fan of this idea, I didn't mean to accidentally kick off a whole new topic in here

to that end I've started a new thread
here to continue this discussion.
Back on to Victors and Jaguars, I'd really like the opinion of some of the veteran EEs around here on my idea for a test rig I mentioned earlier. Essentially, I'd be alternating between a Jaguar sourcing current to a Victor and the opposite, using something with a sufficiently intelligent brain to control both and perhaps some kind of active load between them. While doing this, we can monitor all of their vitals (mostly temperature of the FETs in question) and we can do some pretty terrible things to them and see how they handle it.
A bank of FETs with beefy heat sinks combined with some smoothing LC networks off each speed controller would make a nice load I think, how about it?
