Basics only, because I don't know much more than that!
1. A stock motor draws the same amperage on either 1 or 5. The speed control is nothing more than a reostat. It dissipates the same amperage into heat instead of speed.
2. Voltage is always 12 volts.
3. A PWM cycles between 15,000 to 60,000 times a second! Higher the cycles costs more. No wasted amperage. Basically turns the motor on/off that many times a second.
4. A WT Pro will slow down the revolutions of the prop to where you can almost count them. No wasted amps. I know I tripled... probably more...how long my 40 amp AGM battery lasts.
5. The best benefit for a pram or pontoon is being able to slow down for trolling and having precise speed control depending on the wind. They really work.
6. Electrical geniuses are welcome to jump in. Always room to learn more!!
