yeah 15amp non-modded controllers. I have blew a relay in each, but i dont consider that bad as the controllers are over two years old and they get a hell of a thrashing!
hmmm......isnt it esier to make your own speedcontroller?
Many try .... most buy.
From what Ive read ...It aint as easy as it first appears.
Cant recommend it Joacim, based on my own experience. Unless you find making a speed controller interesting in its own right, its probably not worth it.
But whats the problem with doing your own speedcontroller? Lack of control? I´m doing it because its way cheaper then buy a new one!
Itll take a lot of time and effort to build your own speedos. Im working on a fether speedo as well. Right now, the schematic is almost done. Meaning I still have to work out some details, this can take up most of your time. Im hoping it will fit the size of the PCB I usually use (half a eurocard). The layout stage wil probably take a long time aswell.
In the end, I may see the first versions go up in smoke if I made a mistake. Im keeping my fingers crossed.
So its probably not cheaper, because youll probably blow up the fist few versions and it will take a long time to get it working properly.
The main hrudles are getting the timing of the fets right and current limiting.
But I´m gonna use a servo and another guy is doing the job for me
Yes, but he planned on using ordianary automotive relays and the PCB from a servo. So I guess there wont be much that can go wrong, but hell lack a bit of controll with only one speed.
