1KW of loss to eddy and hysteresis loss is just terrible.

If you think thats bad you should read the reviews on most of their HV controllers. A lot of people drop a couple hundred bucks on something that lasts no more than 1 minute. Needless to say I didnt see one good review.
When I get a chance I'm going to test my turnigy 85A vs the Castle 75 Ice and record some temps. The turnigy got to about 155 deg F in less than 45 seconds on a 40A load. I'm actually afraid to use it on my airplanes.
