Pretty cool. How much does it cost to build something like this?

The load bank itself maybe cost me $250-$275ish. The case was free, the paint I had laying around from an enclosure build. So I just had to buy the dummy loads, the Arduino, and the mosfets, etc.

I didnt mention inthe video, but with this setup, I should actually be able to do about 10,000W @ 1-ohm safely for the duration of the test tracks on the AD-1 disc. The resistors can handle a lot more than rated for short periods.

Hell yeah, nice work!

:good:

Love this kind of DIY stuff.

I'm trying to incorporate an Arduino in my build as well but haven't had enough time to mess with it recently.

This motivates me to get back at it.
