i want to make myself an ebike but kids, mortgage and pay freezes mean i have to do it the hard way. i have no technical background apart from a bit of automotive and fabrication (precision) engineering.
the motor i stumbled across is a 240/50hz plated universal brushed motor which i think is rated at 2000w, but as yet unknown speed.
the controller wish list is 100v 30a and maybe current limit holding feature, so when the load reaches 30a it will hold that but not exceed it, and a simple thermal cut out. i dont need regen braking motor reverse or anything flash.
im after informed opinons on wether
a: i should attempt a scratch build and reccomendations on schematics and parts,
b: my favorite concept, adapt something, but what and with what parts?
c: cry at the realisation a pwm controller is not a suitable first major electronics project and save for the forseeable.
i have spent all the limited spare time i have looking into this since i priced up a proper ebike setup a month ago and tbh have no idea what route a,b,c to take.
any help gratefully appreciated thanks
