Re: Power issues...Electrical? Mechanical?
We have several battery chargers and batteries. They are all fully charged before we use them.

We checked the current while the base was up on blocks. Got around a 6 amp draw from one side (two motors per side) and it peaked at around 14 amps when we quickly shifted from forward to reverse.
