a little cryptic topic, so in more detail:
i have a 15s battery. from my controller the battery voltage goes to the CA. inside the CA is split the wire and connect it to a button switch that triggers the a 48v horn. as the horn is basically a coil which shorts out the supply power and draws lots of amps during "start phase" the voltage drops a lot (it's only awg20 wires). the CA detects a "low voltage cutoff" situation and turns off (-> reboots).
i guess i'd need some kind of inrush limiter. once the horn is "running" current is no big deal anymore. but the initial surge is too much.
any idea what i could do? there is only very little space inside the CA to install anything.
