haha. They had some IGBTs on Ebay. Tesseract (the guy that makes the Soliton1) was selling a bunch of 600v 600amp igbts in groups of 6 and 24, and I got 6 of them. They were like $65 each or something like that. The ring capacitor was like $150 or so from Future Electronics. I'm going to use 3 of them in the 3 phase controller that I need to just finish. They supposedly will do 400 amps at 400 volts continuously with good cooling.
