I'm setting my mixer up to use 12 volts over most of 
the range with 24v kicking in at the extremes of 
stick movement.  I was going to have high speed spin 
turns available but I'm second thinking that one as 
it sounds like most maneuvering would be done using 
12v.

No-load looks to be around 2.6A and stall is anywhere 
from 100A to 200A depending on source voltage but 
what sorta currents are you guys drawing on average?

Thanks!

Ted
