Is this controller main board going to be used for both the DC and AC versions?
If so then some sort of unifying name might be appropriate.

One
Unity
Fusion
Fuse


Add in whatever prefix you like, ReVolt or whatever.

Found a six pack of CM600DY-12NF for about USD$584. Only one pack left though but that makes it under USD$100 per module. Not sure what the shipping is from Argentina though or even if they ship international. Google translate is good but not perfect.

I am so glad i shipped Paul the box of modules right at the beginning of starting my EV conversion. At the time i thought maybe i should hold off as most electronics get cheaper with time but not these modules. I should have bought a boatload of them.
