Coolhandcountry You say the titan is rated for 175 watts? On Kershaw Designs he says the Titan puts out 129 watts on 14.4 volts. That might explain why i am able to get to 50 mph on "750watts", so maybe the dewalt setup is putting out something more like 1100 watts or more? Maybe his testing rig is messed, or he just doesn't know what he is doing...
Also, he says 80% peak efficiency, but i don't know what power output that is at? (seems reasonable)

And ppl DO under estimate the 820 motors, they capable of very high power. Apparently you can run them on 18 cells no problem. "600 watts" from one motor... in his watt ratings.
