I was told by Damon that it has 1200 electronics, but set to 600A limiting.
I don't quite understand why, if it's limiting itself to 600A in the 600
model that it needs beefier electronics to keep from blowing up, but that's
what I was told (actually, it's not too hard to believe it).  But those are
motor amps; the emeter reading is battery amps.  The most I ever saw in the
emeter was about 350 just as I blew the first motor on the dragstrip.  On
the road I kept it to 200-250A (climbing the hill out of Portland).
