I get what you are saying. I just took an average amp draw by measuring the mah used over a timed run and did the math to calculate the average amp draw. You are right, this is not a conntinuous draw, but if i am averaging 60-65Apms and peaking as high as 115A, wouldnt that really be pushing the limits of a 72 A battery?

I would love to get one of those really nice data recorders, but all I have is a Watts Up meter. It records Peak Amps, mah used, peak low voltage, and peak watts. So I am working with what I have. Average Amps is the best measurement I can make.
