Re: [EVDL] Controller hunt: In the market for a Curtis 1231C-860 replacement
A ZEVA 1000A controller is around USD$1300 if you get a display as well: http://www.zeva.com.au/index.php?product=121 That's the one I use on my conversion, after my 1231C died The 600A controller is cheaper, I just prefer the additional power -Original Message- From: EV [mailto:ev-boun...@lists.evdl.org] On Behalf Of John Lussmyer via EV Sent: Monday,02 January, 2017 7:29 AM To: brucedp5; Electric Vehicle Discussion List Subject: [EVDL] Controller hunt: In the market for a Curtis 1231C-860 replacement On Sun Jan 01 15:01:31 PST 2017 ev@lists.evdl.org said: >Any EV parts company I mention, I am not recommending, just using their >site as an example. > >New Curtis controller will be in the $2000 price range. >The evwest site shows a Soliton Jr controller $1900 >http://www.evwest.com/catalog/product_info.php?cPath=1_id=48 And a Z1K from Manzanita is $2000. http://manzanitamicro.com/products?page=shop.browse_id=33=1 -- Bobcats and Cougars, oh my! http://john.casadelgato.com/Pets ___ UNSUBSCRIBE: http://www.evdl.org/help/index.html#usub http://lists.evdl.org/listinfo.cgi/ev-evdl.org Read EVAngel's EV News at http://evdl.org/evln/ Please discuss EV drag racing at NEDRA (http://groups.yahoo.com/group/NEDRA) ___ UNSUBSCRIBE: http://www.evdl.org/help/index.html#usub http://lists.evdl.org/listinfo.cgi/ev-evdl.org Read EVAngel's EV News at http://evdl.org/evln/ Please discuss EV drag racing at NEDRA (http://groups.yahoo.com/group/NEDRA)

[EVDL] Controller hunt: In the market for a Curtis 1231C-860 replacement
Jay's conversion http://www.evalbum.com/3693 is about the same weight as my former S-10 Blazer EV. Over time I blew two Curtis (1221x vintage) controllers. I wanted a more robust controller, one that would not burn up, and catch fire (Curtis controllers had a nickname of cursit because of their nasty habit of dying). Any EV parts company I mention, I am not recommending, just using their site as an example. New Curtis controller will be in the $2000 price range. The evwest site shows a Soliton Jr controller $1900 http://www.evwest.com/catalog/product_info.php?cPath=1_id=48 Here is the company's spec page: http://www.evnetics.com/evnetics-products/soliton-jr/ Usually it is our sys admin that recommends that people look at: evtradinpost.com specifically their controller section: http://www.evtradinpost.com/list/30 which shows: Kelly KDH14801E -- price reduced$ 600.00 Kelly KDH14801E motor controller w/regenerative braking. Designed for permanent magnet DC motor, nominally 144 V, but due to regen can handle up to 180 V on the battery side. Essentially new, briefly wired in to my car but never permanently mounted. Didn't physically fit well, and my motor then failed. Accepts separate 0-5 V input signals for throttle and regen control. I can supply one or two Hall-effect throttle units for additional cost. Includes connectors, precharge resistor. See Kelly site for specs. The owner was using it on a permanent magnet motor. So a search https://www.google.com/search?q=Kelly+KDH14801E I found a page that states the same controller will work on Jay's 9" ADC motor: http://kellycontroller.com/high-efficient-kdh14801e24-144v800a-pm-with-regen-p-746.html For EVLN EV-newswire posts use: http://evdl.org/evln/ {brucedp.neocities.org} -- View this message in context: http://electric-vehicle-discussion-list.413529.n4.nabble.com/In-the-market-for-a-Curtis-1231C-860-replacement-tp4685179p4685189.html Sent from the Electric Vehicle Discussion List mailing list archive at Nabble.com. ___ UNSUBSCRIBE: http://www.evdl.org/help/index.html#usub http://lists.evdl.org/listinfo.cgi/ev-evdl.org Read EVAngel's EV News at http://evdl.org/evln/ Please discuss EV drag racing at NEDRA (http://groups.yahoo.com/group/NEDRA)
