ok, so it does say "and everything else" so heres my off topic project
I bought this 1970 Bonanza lawnmower body at the Denton threshers reunion auction in 2023 for 12 dollars. It had no engine,no deck,no wheels half the trans was gone,and no seat, and was rusted to high heaven.
PERFECT specimen for my project idea. I have wanted a restore able unit like this for years, as in original equipment but this is the first 1 i have ever come across for sale and it was to far gone to do a decent restore on. So it got the drive system from a electric mobility scooter with 2 4 lug hubs added and a go cart brake system. 36 volts from 3 35 amp hour agm batterys, 200 amp peak, 100 amp continuous controller from Aliexspress, with a knob for speed control. the "safety" includes the throttle assembly from a ez-go marathon using the micro switch to turn on a 36 volt solenoid to activate. The first controller i had in it was to light duty and fried, it was able to use the ez-go pot for foot speed control but this new controller won't work with it. it is a bit awkward if you need to "creep" like into the shed or something. i think this controller is more for a lathe motor or something instead of a "vehicle" speed controller. |
