Maximum input current(amps) on Vamo V3

[DNA1000]

Does anybody know the max input current on the vamo v3?
I'm looking to increase my battery capacity and am not sure how many amps I can supply to the board without damaging it.
Any info you have--or a link to a spec sheet would be great.

Thanks and keep on vaping

Well figure max watts and max volts the Vamo V3 is rated for...that should give you a spitball range of max amps

You can stack batteries (it's not advisable) to get 7.4vdc which means it uses the "boost" function less and relies more on the "buck" side

Here's what I have come up with if I have my math right.

The vamo outputs 6 volts maximum with a minimum of 3.2 volts. Assuming that you were able to get the maximum of 15 watts output the amp draw on the output would be 2.5 amps.

The ratio of the output to input voltages is 1.88 so 2.5 * 1.88 = 4.68 amps if the boost circuit were 100% efficient which it isn't so if we multiply by 1.25 we would get 5.86 amps. (80% derate factor)

A battery that can provide a minimum of 6 amps is what you would want to use to be safe.

If someone sees a flaw in my math or assumptions regarding the boost circuit please post your corrections.
