Just curious
Why are you guys using shunts anyway? A hall effect with the feed wires passing thru them is a far more elegant solution.
Kind of like using LEDs instead of incadesent bulbs.

AFS ships their units with a shunt. One gets to a point that one just wants to get it done! And with that said, the orders to ACS just keep being placed. One or two items at a time.

Probably because their wiring diagram shows one.

I agree, but they may be more $$ than the shunt. I haven't compared prices though. I'll be using the hall effect sensor on my -10 because there's two less connections on the fat wires.

Current Shunts are considered more accurate and cheaper than Hall effect devices.

I'm sure it really is an insignificant difference and having less terminal connections is nice too.

I went with two shunts for my G3X. The manual shows both hall effect and shunts.
