Re: GECKOS 201

Hi Raul,

yes, it is that simple, or even simplier.

you only need to meet 66% of the total amps. Check out the tech
sheets at geckodrive.com. There is one on steppers and power
supplies. pretty much says it all.

but, to check your capacitor selection, I think you need more like
40,000uF for the total motors. (OK, 35,566uF)

From the geckodrive site and posted on this list a few times;
"(C= (80,000 * I) / V)). C is the value in microfarads."
