... but if it has the kind of forced cooling you talk about then it might be a higher output...

As I mentioned, I have not confirmed that one as yet. The information on the motor appears to be paper-based and so a bit more challenging to locate. I may have to look at old catalogs in the library!

Bottom line of course is that under sizing your controller will be a bad idea and that higher voltage with a controller/battery pack is better then lower

I'd like to throttle the controller to avoid melting the motor. Do any of the controllers have RTD or thermocouple inputs?
Lead-acid will be used for testing. Likely LiFePO4 (CALBs) if it appears to be workable after testing.
