Hello,
I have 24V - 500W Brushed DC Motor (Commonly used E-bike motor - Chinese Make - MY1016). I eventually plan to run it using Arduino PWM and 24V 30 Amps SMPS.
For Testing the motor I tried to power it directly (without the E-bike driver provided in the kit):
1) Using a 230V AC to 12V AC - 10 Amps step down transformer and a bridge rectifier - Works fine (definitely with lesser power - could stop the shaft by hand)
2) Using a 24V 10 Amps SMPS - Doesn't start at all..!
(Tested the SMPS for fault, using other stepper motors, its working fine.)
Need some help figuring out what might be the cause.
