Hey Mike, welcome to the positive side! :o)
I normally will bump the throttles just off of nutraul. I also have the notch on my throttles and this is a negative draw. Play with it and see if you can get regen just a hair off neutral, don’t understand why the throttles can’t be linear and adjusted wit that position a stop. This gets the props to easy spin. I’m interested in something, didn’t the manufacture say anything about keeping the motors in the on position when sailing? I thought there could be some damage to the motors if switched off and turning the props/motor for an extended period of time.
I’m currently working on an Android application and instillation into a Xoom to remote read the PakTrakr from anywhere on the boat through a Bluetooth connection. It will also work on an Android phone.

I finally was able to observe my ASMO MARINE Thoosa 9000 system in regen mode after trying over three years. Strange thing was I was not even trying when I found it working. It was probably available all the time. I had recently started electro sailing instead of just letting the prop spin with the EP system off while under sail. One day when the boat was sailing along at 6 knots I checked the amp meter and noticed it had a positive amp flow. Did the happy dance in cockpit! You can see the regen in action here on my blog: BTW I'm using the same three bladed prop I used with the diesel . Until I can rig up another meter so I can observe the regen more easily in the cockpit I'll continue to check on it from time to time Though it's not easy to keep a constant eye on it with current meter location. I'm still happy to know that it is working. Capt. Mike |
