that is interesting. I wonder if simon and crew could help out 72v guy.

But since budget is such a concern there, and motors are plentiful and cheap (and since you put the idea in my head long ago), I do wonder if an (identical?) motor and a 6 pack igbt can make a suitable converter, maybe just the stator? locked rotor? moving rotor?!? moving rotor with flywheel?!?!? (two phases leading with one lagging?) as long as the phase leads are easy enough to get to I recon.
