How should I create additional load in a repeatable way?
What would this tell me?
EDIT:
Are you saying the motor speed isn't repeatable?
Based on the first graph, we saw that the speed is directly proportional to current, with fairly tight control. It's only the current that is doing funny things.
I can tell you that at full voltage, it's operating pretty close to no load, under peak efficiency. Below that speed, I have no data. That's why I'm doing this test.
