Interesting. What motor controllers have you used? Every controller I've used *has* had a low-voltage cutout. That includes everything from the venerable GE EV1, Curtis, Sevcon, Zilla, DCP, etc. If the controller is sold for a specific battery voltage, the threshold is usually fixed by internal resistors. When there is a range of voltages, then there is and adjustable low-battery threshold. When you think about it, it makes sense. Without such a threshold, users would run the pack totally utterly dead, and destroy their pack! That causes customer complaints and warranty problems that the controller manufacturers don't want! -- Excellence does not require perfection. -- Henry James -- Lee A.
