Can you advise us of a reasonable motor limit (number of turns) when using the Sidewinder SCT in brushed reversing mode?

The original Sidewinder was 19T in Brushed reversing and 8T in Brushed high power.

Based solely on the amp draw capabilities of the SWD V2/SCT, I would estimate 12-13T in Brushed reversing and no motor limit in Brushed high power.
