Finished building my 25mph Ebike

I wasn't having issues when I was running lower voltages. It's when I started going up in voltage that I was having throttle issues. I had to gradually increase my throttle to get up to speed. Not an issue in zero traffic, but kinda annoying in heavy traffic. Happens with both lipo and A123 power source.

I always wondered what the ampacity of solder wick was.

I wondered that a while back when I was using it to beef up some PCB traces. So, I "rolled" it so it was more the shape of typical wire and estimate it to be roughly equivalent to 16GA wire. As for the exact ampacity, do the math (how much v drop do you find acceptable for a given length).

Brian,

It was more of a joke between me and Romano.
