Default Re: Conserving Run Time?

The heat would depend on the speed control device. If you have a resistor cart, then yes, heat will reach high levels. This isn't as true for controller carts.

Either way, I do not think your gains are noticable, if at all. Keep in mind, once at full speed, you do a lot of coasting. There is almost a guaranteed load on 99% of the time at half throttle.

You must also realize, that though you are using less juice, you are also going less distance due to the slower speed.
