Re: CIM's Over loaded/Heated

15 minutes is a loooong time to be running them under load......


ours' never got as hot as you mentioned..but they do get hot....to the point of the PWM's therming out and shutting the off untill they cool down....

and your running them direct drive too...thats probobly most of the cause....
