Re: Monitoring Current During Competition
I'd favor one of the honeywell "pass through" current sensors that works like a clamp-on current sensor over one of the allegro ones - they have ones rated up to 950A (rather than the 150 or 200A the Allegro's max out at), and don't require any physical connection (its just a circle you can run your main 6GA power wire through. Should be able to get them from Newark for around $40 or so.
