Kodiak High Out Put Switch Silver
New from Fromeco the Kodiak switch.
Designed with the new Lithium Phosphate or (LiFePO4) batteries in mind the
Kodiak switch from Fromeco is capable of 30amps continuous
service. The Kodiak also utilizes a LED graphical read out that
counts milliamps used out of the battery that it is controlling. Kodiak
can also be used with Lithium Ion, Lithium Polymer, Nicad, and NiMH with in
appropriate voltage ranges.
The Kodiak switch in the buff to the Left. To the left you can see
the Deans female ultra plug, this is the Charging Jack. We chose a Deans
Ultra for charging to facilitate HI amperage charging through the
switch.
In the middle you see our positive feed back paddle switch,
(spring driven ball and detent) the same switch used in our line of Badger,
and Wolverine Switches.
The Switch acts as both the units power
ON/OFF, and also the mA Counter Reset. The mA counter is simple and easy
to reset, a simple ON, OFF, ON in quick succession will reset the mA counter
to 0 and your ready for a fresh battery. The Kodiak is an electrical
switch, or what many would call a "Fail Safe" switch. It does draw small
amount of energy in the OFF position.
On the right you see our mA counter
digits. Fromeco uses LED 7 segment displays for our read out, they have
proven to be robust small and very lite.
The Back of the Kodiak you can see out Deans Ultra in and our Deans Ultra
out, for power input and power output.
NOTE! The Kodiak mA counter is for indication purposes
only. It should NEVER be used to get the full capacity out of any
battery pack. Please ensure you have an understanding of how
batteries work before you use this product. Attempting to get full
capacity out of a flight pack will most certainly result in a failure of power
to your flight system. Kodiak's mA count is accurate enough for
indication purposes, however it should not be mistaken for the accuracy
of "Instruments" such as VOM's.
