I've been sick for a week and have no energy to put into any projects.

There is a thread about using a Lebowski chip to build a bldc controller. Maybe look on diyelectriccar.com and you will find it, titled Honda IMA something or other. I know the Lebowski controller as is won't run an induction motor, however, the IMA controller is rated at 150V/200v and 400 Amps, so, using the power section of the IMA and coupling it with Paul's circuit board will be an inexpensive controller build, compared with the $1000.00 Curtis, that only takes 96V max from the battery.

I bought the complete Honda IMA controller, to include the charger and DC-DC converter for $120.00 shipped to Florida where I picked it up. TomDB is the op of the IMA thread and built a converter board for the joining of the Lebowski and Honda IMA power section. I believe if someone could get a copy of that board, and using paul's circuit, this project would come together.

This is where I am stuck, no electronics/ coding experience. Paul stated his board will work for the 130V that I want to use in a 30S Chevy Volt pack. I hope someone will look further into this.
