Ii have a 12 volt DC gear motor that is 30 amp. I have a electro-magnetic brake set up on the end of the motor. I have a 30 amp rated toggle switch operating my unit to control forward and reverse. When I get the unit spinning it creates inertia and produces current and keeps the brake energized after the toggle is returned to off position and it does not stop until it coasts to a stop. Can someone help me with a circuit that will stop my motor faster so my brake can do its job? I have very basic electrical skills.
Is there an easy way to do this? I have seen H-Bridge type motor controls on ebay, but do not know if you need some other controls to operate them.
Thanks for any help.
