Was the original fuse 10amp or 20amp?

Post by wibblywobbly »

Does anyone have the old style board who can tell me whether they were fitted with a 10 or 20 amp fuse?

A track jammed today and blew the fuse, at which point I noticed that mine was a 10amp. For some reason I thought that they originally came with a 20amp.

If it was 20amps, then Elmod have downgraded the fuse on the new board, and that may explain why my esc's melted prior to me sending it back for repair. On the other hand I could be a senile old fool... :-\

Are we talking about the "Big Booster" and a "car type" fuse?

From: http://www.el-mod.de/pdf/OLD_PDFs/bigbo ... nglish.pdf

"Warning! Consider to use a appropriate main switch with can handle at least loads of 10 Amps!"

Yup, the car type fuse, was it 10 or 20 amps on the Big Booster type system? Just curious.
