Well, if I was going to do a EV anything it would be a variable frequency drive. This way you can program curves into the way it accelerates and make it have no problems hooking up. You could even go so far as to add an encoder to the front wheel and when the back wheel spins faster then the front it backs off the power a bit. like traction control, but way better.
That has all ways been my plan if i build a EV car. then i can program in curves and go bracket racing and win every time. hell even let the car launch itself. Have a camera watching the tree and when it sees it light up, it goes at a prescribed rate and runs the quarter in whatever time I told it to do. Dont know if that's legal, even if its not I can still have the curve to run it at a precise time after launch.
Yet another new project! EV motorcycle *updated* aug 7

Years ago I built something just like what you have on that breadboard there. Mine was to control heat to a thermoplastic welder because it ran to hot. Worked great and still does. I fed the pulses to a 25 amp solid state relay to handle the load to the heating element.
Are you going to use ssr's to deliver the power or make your own? (those mosfet's you were speaking of?)
Good work SOV and keep us posted. I love this sorta stuff!

thanks kook! im going to be using mosfets, 3 of them with a very large heatsink, but i bought 8 of them because i was told they will burn easily if i rev it enoughKoo Koo Mouse wrote:Years ago I built something just like what you have on that breadboard there.

thats what i bought. i imagine 3 of those is more than adequate
they are 200v 30amp N channel mosfets.

hey its intel p4 heatsink, and no the owner wanted to ebay the tank. the rest of the bike as you can see is a wash.normalicy wrote:Hey, that heatsink looks familiar for some reason
You gonna retain the gas tank & mount a battery underneath it or did it even have one to start with?
