    Very nice.

    Make a nice Easter Present for someone. Imagine cracking open a chocolate egg to find that inside. Hmmmmmmm.

    lol sure will post it today for you simon.

    turns out after the meet nothing was wrong with it, i didnt kill anything.

    i was rushing to get it up and running for the meet and used some insulating tape as a quick fix, a resistor pearced it touched metal and tripped the driver out. so i was very lucky and in future i wont be rushing to get stuff done and cutting corners

    no idea on power as i dont have a power meter that can go that high
    You could turn on 1 driver at a time and measure the powers separately. Add the two results to get total power
