I Understand
Ryan,
Believe me, I understand your question. Many teams during those stalemates are spinning their tires, many teams are at stall under VERY LOW voltage which WILL NOT trip breakers, many teams apply a brake on their wheels when in position. What you were seeing at IRI was a combination of those things. I was very close to the action at IRI and saw the stalemates you were talking about. Some teams were tripping their 40 amp breakers and some teams were spinning their tires. The bottom line is that current draw at stall is directly proportional to voltage input and at around 4 volts input, the drill motor can be at stall without tripping the 40 amp breaker. -Paul
