Hi all, I'm new to this forum. I'm building an electric go kart and I have picked up a series wound Advanced DC Motor rated between 72 and 96V.
It is rated 6kW 16.5 kW peak at 72 volts and 7.3 kW 21.3 kW peak at 96V. The LiFePo4 batteries I am using come in 12S packs, so I would like to use 3 of them in series at 36S total, or 115.V
From your guy's experience, do you think I will blow out the brushes/commutator or destroy windings with this amount of overvoltage? I would like to go insanely fast, but it would really suck to lose my motor.
