This was my point. it is unfair to test one mill at 30 volts and
another at 70 volts and then point to the drivers as the difference.

if the playing field is level, in this senario, 2 amps as 30 volts,
how do the contenders stack up ?

the Gecko being a 10x microstepping and the Xylotex being a 8x
