Looks like you are kinda on the same track that I am.
I already have LOTS more money into this project than you.
$500 for entire forklift and charger
$180 to move it.
I decided that I need to get rid of the rest of the forklift before doing anything else. Get one wreck out of the driveway before bringing another one in.
I pulled the controller off the forklift, although it doesn't make any sense to me.
I just got a book from the Library called "How to convert to an electric car" by Ted Lucas and Fred Riess. It was copyrighted in 1980, so it uses some older technology in the book. This includes showing an "SCR Controller", which I believe is what the forklift has.
I may be able to use the forklift controller - at least for some early tests, until finding a really good deal on a PWM controller.
