What! Cheap EV Conversion? Not Cheap Motor Controller??? haha!

I just added an emergency disconnect. A 175amp Anderson Connector. It's sort of crappy, but it works really well, so back off! Geeze! I took really good pictures of it, and the batteries are dead again on the camera. I bought the rechargeable batteries from Harbor Freight. hmm... Well, I put in the emergency disconnect because... hmm... well, maybe because I'm going to put the controller in the car! haha! And then test it out a bit at 72v, and then Ben's going to do the big time stuff (144v)! ya!
