I still have a boat load of older amps still to this day, but only have a Kicker L5 and a Soundstream Reference 500SX, and an older Sony cd player with some Boston 1" added to the rest of the stock system.

Heck I don't even think the industrial stuff is ready yet. I just checked into a system for a small conveyor we build and there aren't really any options, the only option I was given was PWM signal in just like a hobby system (Who uses that?); a switch that would activate the motor or the motor would run on applied power. Controlling speed was a problem and there isn't a way to communicate to it. The speed control had a great price and I was told for an engineering fee I could get it configured “anyway I like” Which I was perfectly fine for a custom, but the motor price was ludicrous, and apparently nobody wants to make you a custom motor unless you are buying 10K units. I could spend less on a VFD and a standard 3 phase motor for cheaper, but it wouldn't be as small. So I’ll stick with what we have until I find a better answer.

I know the industrial line has a larger heatsinks but unless they have a way to mount a larger heatsink I doubt they ones can handle it. I got a million questions about what kind of transient voltages I see and all these battery related questions. It’s an industrial application how many run on batteries everybody uses power supplies.

Ever see a 16 HP VFD? They are much larger and are not passively cooled, and they start out with 230V-480V so the current is much lower.

I guess I am just used to stuff running continuously, like 24/7, maybe a few days a year off, but all the time is what I am saying.

I know my MM will handle a lot I have run the 7700 combo bashing on grass on NiMH and never had a problem. I run A123 now and see spikes as high as 178 amps on my Elogger, and have run more than 10 minutes on 3S2P on a Fagieo 4436KV with spikes in the 140A range I have no doubt in a car it’s not a big deal but a loaded industrial application.

So what is continuous? Is there any standardization in RC?
