Actually the amperage that the fets see while on is the same at part throttle under load as it is at full thottle under load but due to the switching of the speedo the average amperage over time appears to be less on an amp meter.

EX:

At full thotttle: 30A--------------------------
At 1/2 throttle: 30A-0A-30A-0A-30A-0A-30A-0A-30A.... an amp meter would read that as 15A
