Just need to keep the rpm of the motor(s) below 5000 rpm and keep them cool.Revolt that runs at 192v with a z1 , we cap the max voltage at 110 volts and pray. Brian

Brian,

On that subject, will I fry the Eteks at 96V and factory timing? I
know you've done it, and from what recon photos I've acquired, you
don't appear to have been running advanced timing?
The new brushes that I've run a few times have alot of pitting
already. Doubling the voltage and halving the amperage might just do
the trick.....
