    Custom Alu Frame + Cromotor + 2kWh A123 + Kelly Controller

    I have a Zoom 1100DH Basically the upgrade to that, I got it direct from supplier for around $220 US about a year ago, so far so good.

    Good question, Im looking for a unit to convert DC to conventional AC (120V single phase, 60Hz) Im looking to be able to use the battery pack to power basic l load appliances hence a max of 1000W would be great. This inverter ideally should be pure sine wave however modified sine is ok aswell...

    Need some hardware development help

    Hmm, The current battery pack is a 60V Lifepo4 pack, which is at 73V when fully chargerd, Id need a DC controller which can atleast feed 72V to the BMS for these guys to charge. Essentially I'd love to have a BMS designed that can integrate the solarcharging for the battery.Thanks for the input tho

    That darn Aluminum Adaptor!!!

    You guys are correct its not the axel, the correct thing to call it is the cover. You say that cover is made of aluminum ?? If so I can buy one of those alumnium freewheel adapter and have a aluminum welding friend to tack it onto the cover
