(ET) lift motor currents

[Jim Coate <jbc coate org>]

With temps all the way into the 40's today I did a quick test and found 
that the front lift motor (on 18 volts) was taking 15 amps just reeling 
in the strap. As soon as it started lifting the deck, it went up to 25 
amps - at which point the test was aborted until I have a higher 
capacity meter on hand. The 30 amp slo-blow fuse seems to be sized for a 
reason.

And for kicks measured the headlights: ~3.3 amps
