Re: Eclair ACL Burnt Out HD Motors

[Mark <super16acl@aol.com>]

I received a note from the fellow who had two HD motors go south on him, in 
reply to my e-mail asking if it was 14 volts that caused the problem. His 
reply:

"... I cannot confirm that voltage was indeed the culprit. I lost them quite 
some time ago so I cannot actually remember the cause. It would seem to me 
that if indeed the voltage was the issue I would surely have lost the fuse 
before the motor."

A good point. Does anybody know what Eclair's "official" amp rating on the 
fuse is supposed to be for the 1.5 Base, and the II Base. For those of us 
running above 12 volts, this is an important concern. I have a 1.5 with a 7 
amp fuse, and a II with an 8 amp fuse --- but for all I know someone may have 
just stuck these in 20 years ago.  Mark.
