How much load can a 10 amp cc bec take?

[xgerstandtx]

Hey guys, i am working on my wraith finishing this stage of wiring. My set up:
Sidewinder
Hitec 7950th
Cc bec set to 7.4
3 racing winch( stock controller)
Axial simple light set(6 light)
Spektrum reciever
11.1 v 2200 battery

Ok for the question i have used various splitter to wire this all together. I want to use the bec to provide the 7.4 v to the winch and lights using a servo splitter. Will that work? I believe it will just want some reinforcement on this. I dont want to overload anything and i am hoping that this will be ok with the winch recieveing power there vs directly from the battery.

Might need to power the lights of the ESC along with the rx, not sure the LED controller can take 7.4. Winch will be fine that way.

The lights use 7.4v.

Just to clear up, The biggest issue is running the feed power to the winch off of a splitter off of a ESC.

I don't think the 3Racing winch uses much, probably no more than 2A under full load, probably less than 1A under normal load, please someone correct me if I'm wrong. I've been meaning to measure mine, maybe I'll do that tonight.

And LEDs use almost nothing (10mA to 20mA per serial path) so don't worry about that.

To answer your question, don't worry about the splitter or the BEC, they'll be fine.

Thank you, That is what i was looking for. I didn't think that the winch draws much but with that said I don't want to over tax any one item in the package. I won't be using this winch to pull much but it's still cool to have it in there. 2A is not much and I am glad that is all it pulls. Thank you. Anyone else?

I just plugged my 3Racing winch to a 7.4V Lipo and it drew 50mA with no load, and the most I got with a heavy load was 370mA. I didn't stall it, but I doubt it would even get to 1A.

I'm using a ccbec as the power source for a small 10amp brushed esc being used as a winch controller for a servo winch. Hasn't failed me yet and will dead lift the truck while binding up the steering (my possible max load on the bec).
