Re: Victor 888: Upgrade to the Victor 884

Our lead Mentor picked up a cut sheet on the Talon at IRI. Info that was listed.
15khz switching frequency, 100 amp max, 60 amp continuous, 800 micro- ohm per leg, lock anti-phase rectification.
The Talon departs from the Victor and Jag by using a heat sink and optional fan.
I would suggest that they not say anything about a fan being optional and just put a fan on it powered all the time. There are some graphs of time, current and temperature. No info on the specifics of the test set up for the graphs. They also show a linear response. IFI has modified the Victor to have a linear response. I understand they are doing it in software. Is the Talon linear because off the 15khz switching frequency? Can the Talon hold up to First abuse? Time will tell. Whats the price? Will the Talon because of the switching frequency have problems with the window motors like the jag? If Cross the road would get some to us we would being willing to beat the hell out of them this fall.
