The current for the X, Y, and Z motors are all hard coded, so you can change them in iMe source code. The E motor current is stored in the printer's EEPROM at address 0x2E8 as an unsigned 16-bit number in little-endian format as milliamps, so you can change it by changing the values in the printer's EEPROM.

Printer's with a serial number that starts with BK15033001100, BK15040201050, BK15040301050, BK15040602050, BK15040801050, BK15040802100, GR15032702100, GR15033101100, GR15040601100, GR15040701100, OR15032701100, or SL15032601050 are only designed to handle a max E motor current of 500mA, so don't go beyond that if that applies to your printer.

Unfortunately I am not strong in the 16 digit system ((((( But thanks anyway )))
