[QUOTE="el bandido, post: 1017931, member: 316102"] 1. Here is what I found the stock ASC1 capable of: 37 volts at bridge rectifier, no load. 34 volts at .5 amps 32 volts at .8 amps 27.4 volts at 3 amps (3 minute max) 25 volts at 4 amps (1 minute max) 20 volts at 5 amps. (a few seconds) More or less, 100 watts of moving power. Much better than the Chinese junk which has 60 - 80 watts of moving power. 2. Never said I had an actuator it did not move. (If I did say this, it was in error.) Please check the dc output and see if the readings are similar. Maybe I got a defective ASC1? My c band dish is 3.6 meter commercial. While it is not nearly the biggest beast on the planet, it does have 8 dish panels that weigh about 18 kilograms a piece. So it has a bit of weight to it. The stock ASC1 moved it fine. But the stock ASC1 could not move the dish at its maximum speed, nor could it give a good burst of energy at the start of moving. We have good weather now. Winter demands a bit more energy to move the dish at times. I think overall, the ASC1 is a great unit. It just falls short of what it is advertised to have in the power department. My actuator is rated at 36 volts at 5 amps, and I wanted a dish controller capable of that. One of the cheap Chinese boxes burnt up while moving this dish system last winter. Doubt I have that happen now. [/QUOTE]
