Hi guys,

I have been lurking around for a while now and it is time for me to build a controller as well. First off, thanks for sharing your knowledge and experiences.

Since the weather is getting better, it is time to replace the fried controller in my EV. (was a 550 amp Curtis) I would like to build a 144 VDC IGBT based controller of at least 550 Amps. It appears that the way to go is to get a control board from Paul, and driver from Mr. mrbigh and a power section from ???. If anyone can help with specifics that would be great. I am especially drawn towards making a design similar to the bike controller that jackbauer recently has been posting. The less components to assemble, the better i think.
