Just an update - my 24V pack has started the same problem (cutting out after turning on). I opened the controller and note there is a 12V relay within that is not holding open. I'm a bit confused as to how this actually works (why 12V?) unless there is a voltage splitter somewhere on the circuit...

thanks for the reply. i ran mine for a few days - i only travel about 10min at a time though this might not always be the case. i might have to look into that cooling option... and nice to know that the 48v might not work! do you recall the model number you got from TNC? i too was planning to...
