Dear boaters! Your answer will help me to plan building starters in 2015. Perhaps next year will end my production. BorisWhat starter are you using for motors over 15 cc? 1.0 Boris
What you can not start with 3 cell battery? Why you need 4 cells? BorisI use your starter! On a 3S battery at the moment but considering using a 4S
Do you sure 3 cells is not enough for bigger 90 size motors? BorisAnything smaller than 90 size engines its fine, but I need a "run up" with the bigger engines. Ive used your starter on 4s and its great
Are you talking about 1.2 size motors? BorisSome are using 6 S with the Sullivan dynatron . Stupid power that lasts forever . I use two 12 V gel batteries with the dynatron . works great but you do have to charge if running 6 boats at the races .
The higher voltage means less current draw needed.I use 6S with a Sullivan Dynatron. Starts a Mod K30 with ease. The higher voltage means less current draw needed. I run 4000 mah 25C Traxxas batteries and have never had to put more than 1300 mah back in them running 3 boats for a weekend and starting the occasional friend's boat.
The Solenoid is only one solution to save switch from arc damage!I run a solonoid to take the current draw.
Power = voltage x current.
You are lucky! I have seen 70 A switch completely burned out! BorisBoris the Cole Herse momentary contact start switch is rate for 30 amps if I am not mistaken . I have used them for at least 10 years of intermittent use and carry a spare but have never had to use it ( 24 V ) . Very durable !
