24v Power Supply System Compatibility.

While I decide on my final battery configuration is it possible to power every thing up and bench test it used a regulated 24v power supply?

There is mention that the motors produce regenerative power. Issues?

Anyone using one?

It should be possible but it would need to be quite a beefy.

Expect 15 to 20 amps with the tank raised and everything (motors, smoke, sound) running.

I've tested single motors, with the gearboxes removed, from a 30V 3A supply without issue, but I have to wind the voltage up slowly or the current limiting kicks in.

Been there - done that using a cheap eBay 10A power supply.
