Regarding the current limit setting, it's about protecting your controller. Not so much a big deal with the BBSHD, but it's a known weak spot on the BBS02. My advice would be to try it set at 18a and see how you like it/if it gets the job done for you. You may find it's just fine.....

If you have the self discipline to limit how long you're into the power, you may get away with a higher setting. It takes a few seconds to get things hot enough to let go. If those few seconds are not exceeded without a cool down period, you may get away with a higher setting. Just consider you've nobody to blame but yourself if it lets go at a higher setting.... My take anyway, FWIW.
