Double post, I know:o But I have a (more sensible) question this time.

Look, heat is about the only indicator we have on how our systems is actually doing. Apparently you can tell by the different temps if a system is struggling or somethings wrong.

For example, a hot motor can either be due to under- or overgearing. Agree?

Hot batteries are a sign of a too high current draw, I think.

And a hot controller means ....uhm, maybe someone can help me there.

My experience on my 9L shows that it's obviously undergeared on 16/88. When I stay in first gear, the motor gets hot, but the controller stays exceptionally cool, and vice versa in second gear. Motor stays a bit cooler, but the controller is like 80°C.
The batts always stay cool, like 30-35°C.

I have heard from other guys that their batts get hot. I only ever had hot batts on my brushed Maxx.

What do you think on this. Some input would be great. I like to understand things, and it drives me nuts when something won't make sense.

I also had a close look at the literature on NdFeB magnets, and found out about all the different grades and the maximum temperature they can handle. It's an interesting matter, and I look forward to test some other combos.

Thanks for reading
