There is no relationship between Geckodrive and Anaheim Automation,
only a geographic coincidence.

It will run 42s OK if the phase current is 7A or less, though triple-
stack 34s provide more power.

It does mean 2000 step resolution from a 200 step motor

18 watts refers to the amount of heat the drive generates, not as a
product of any particular voltage and current

Yes. We maintain a minimum stock of 1,000 drives on hand.
