no,
this problem is more sinister,
in my experiments, I only had one unloaded motor directly connected to
the battery box.
I do not feel using this simple set up, i overloaded the limiter.
And to answer your first question YES, under normal operation, the
battery box functions as per spec.
LMK if you discover the same things.

Thanks.

PS. where is the "current limiter" I've looked at the "guts" and only
see steel bars.

| (...) Hi Chris, If you just leave the motor on without pressing the red button does it also stop? The battery boxes have a built in current limiter that will stop current flow if you are drawing too much power. Could that be the problem? Kev (19 years ago, 6-Oct-05, to lugnet.technic)
