Thank you for the link to the instructables! That thing is awesome. I think I can do a simple, inexpensive box using their ideas. Thanks! It would be really nice to have the inside visible. Especially if you are going to show the car this summer at that alternative energy fair! I think most people have no idea how a controller is actually super simple!
