Ernest,

This is exactly what I was looking for and for the same reasons you
defined. Now is this at 12V or 10V :)

Subject: [FlyRotary] Re: EC2 Current Requirements

There are two important issues being mixed together here.  One is the
max current, which is important for sizing wires and fuses.  The second
is typical running current, which is important for sizing alternators,
batteries for alternator-out running time.  I think we have it all, but
let's see:

                    Running@6000RPM        Surge
EC2                 .25A                   .25A
EM2                 .25A                   .25A
Each Injector       2A                     5A
Each Coil           2A                     5A

I've designed in quite a bit of electrical dependancy, so the
alternator-out running time has me concerned.  With all injectors and
coils on seperate switches, it should be possible to extend the range by
switching off a set of injectors and the trailing coils, and accepting
reduced power.  Does that sound viable?
