Battery was topped up at 12.5 volts.

Wheels twitch when you add power, you can easily tell they are pushing. If you lift up one side of the bot moves merrily. I am assuming that the bot is at stall amp draw because it is hooked directly to the battery an it is not moving. Also the wires heat up, so significant amps are flowing.

I can post detailed cad models in a minute.
