Battery Amps, Motor Amps and Duty Cycle... Please Explain

[glyphiks]

@MysticalDork

Motor amps are directly proportional to how much torque the motor is putting out. Double the motor amps, double the torque (excluding losses), up until the motor starts to magnetically saturate.

The BLDC motors we use have very low electrical resistance internally, so when they’re at a standstill or low speed, it doesn’t take that much voltage across their wires to get to the maximum motor current limit. An example would be a phase resistance of 50 milliohm (0.05 ohms). Using V=I/R, for 100 amps, you only need 5 volts across

Thanks Ryan really eloquently explained.
