Ok so my worries over missing parts were unfounded, as it turns out the voltage doubler board is for countries that have 110V AC mains supply, obvious really but as I am a novice at HV electronics these sorts of issues are bound to trip me up.
Thankfully Valery of Emotorwerks clarified the confusion as soon as I sent him a photo of my kit unpacked, there was 1 part missing however an output diode, Valery sent me a link to the part so I could confirm that the part was definitely missing (which it was)
In fact the service I have received so far from Valery of Emotorwerks is second to none, Thanks Valery, We shall probably be doing more business in the future (when I start my second EV build, whoa there slow down boy one at a time!)
Will get more photos uploaded soon as soon as I can find the micro usb lead for my other camera.
I am really starting to enjoy this build now.
Hi,
ReplyDeleteNice to find your blog. I also started last month with a conversion of a Austin Metro of 1988. The blog is here : http://metro-to-ev.blogspot.be
It seems like we have the same interest in choosing the components. I also ordered a K9 motor and wil be using a charger from EMotorWerks.
If you want to follow my blog, please do.
Everything is typed in dutch but with the Chrome translate I hope it possible for you to read.
