I have a couple questions maybe someone could help me with this,this proably will fall under any dyno really,but I have the INDI Motor Dyno.So here it goes.

How much DC (Amps) should I use to power it from my power supply?
The dyno operates with 12VDC power supply with at least 10A capacity.

What output voltage should I use to dyno a stocker with? (3.0v ?)

To break in a stock motor,how long and how many output volts would I use?

Same questions as above but with a 19T motor? :cool:

How much amps? That depeands on your motors, I would say a 15amp to be safe, a 10 will work but will kick it off if a motor pulls 11 or more

What output ? I would say 3 is a good number, maybe 4 play around, anything less and it never really even spins up

to break in a stock? Try around 2v for 2 min. and cycle it twice.

Sorry i dont know much about 19T but i say it should all be the same....

I experimented with an Indi Dyno when they came out,not too much info without any motor load applied.More of a commutation gauge I thought.

All results should be relative, if you test all stocks or 19s at 3 volts, results should be comparable.

As it states, power supply of 10 amps, depending on the voltage to run the motor,stock may pull 10 amps, 19 easily will reach that mark.
Break in voltage is subject to opinion, I like to run lower voltage to decrease arcing. 1-2 volts should be fine.

Thanks for the help guys. :cool:

Hey guys
whatever you do ....do not use a power supply that puts out more than 12volts to power the Integy dyno!!!
It will blow it up.

My radio shack supply at 13.8v blew it up the first time i connected it.
I called Integy and they said, didnt you read the instructions, 12v max.
I said yeah but most power supplies are over 12 v and they told me to get a regulated 12v supply, LOL

The V2 version is supposed to be able to handle more than 12V...

Thanks. So don't give it no more than 12v?? Or bad things happen. :(
ehh!!! Is this dyno worth having? :confused:

I had the old style and ran it off my integy 16x9 charger which put out 12v, everything was fine then the one time i did hook it up to my radio shack 13.8v supply it blew

I have the V2, Hooked up to a 13.8V power supply, never had a problem,

And about the question is it worth having? For dynoing, or comparing motors...NO
but for breaking in motors and running lathes it is worth the price

I have been running it on a 12v regulated power supply and it seems to be fine.


But I have one more question,I couldn't find on askjeeves.com,:lol:

Con mode shows interference condition of your motor(lower is usually better)

What does this mean? Brushs arching,binding,what?What is the interference? Thanks
