« on: April 22, 2007, 02:19:08 pm »
Hi Guys
So as you all know Scharnhorst over the last few weeks has had difficulties shall we say .
But now He is OK,anyway last week He sailed and was very slow, scale speed i would think now i did not charge the main power last week, today He went like a bat out of hell.
Any ideas
cheers

A battery that works better if you dont charge it. You gotta market it Gary.
Ask Bob [Shipmate60] he'll probably know.

Gary,
Wasnt your model blowing fuses last time?
It could be that you were discharging at a high rate and pulling battery voltage down.
Now everything is ok you are getting full battery voltage to the motors.

Guys
the fuse blowing was before. Now we have all new wiring fuse'e & smaller motors and the performance difference between this week & last week is from different ends of the scale but nothing has changed.
confused
cheers

Gary,
Must admit that is a new one on me, a Fast Breeder SLA battery.
Patent it and make a fortune   :)

Looks like you've been out in the sun too long Bob judging by the photo.
