turns the rotor and magnets. Using 100ma say at 100volts= 10watts
BUT each coil should have 3 channels of around 1000ft so 3X10watts=
30watts per coil at best case. This would require you have coils to
reach the break even point.
Chart showing current handling AWG wire for 1000ft and over.
Using 25awg I am targeting 333ma per strand X channels=1000ma
per coil so only 2 coil packs are needed to reach the break even point.
