Motor "Sweet Spot"

CHC: Sorry, it's hard for me to explain things sometimes. I either go too deep into detail and ramble on and one, or not deep enough. :dft001: The explanation was greatly simplified for the sake of simply explaining the voltage drop under load. Batteries generate their power via chemical reaction so there are other factors that come into play. The discharge curves are not linear, so the voltage drop will vary more or less than a simple resistor equivalent would show. The best way to see how a specific battery will react is to look at the specific spec sheet with various plots and graphs.

neweuser: LOL, I would NOT be a good teacher - I have far too little patience/tolerance. Plus, I don't know enough. I'm glad if it helped you at all though. :027:
