change the fluid again!

Definitely! Maybe even after a couple hundred, since my piece of crap is only going to go like 5 miles an hour I bet. This controller is rated at 300 amps for 2 minutes I believe. I missed out on the 400 amp controller at the last second. OOOHHH that makes me mad. Hmm... Good question about the higher voltage. I believe the cutoff is 60v, but since I'm using 12v batteries, 5 in series when fully charged will put me over the limit. OOOHHH that just makes me so mad!
