My controller went up in smoke, but tractor is going pretty well still
A controller priced at several 100$ is beyond my budget, so what do I do?
The tractor starts and works without controller, but Im afraid it wont last, because
1) Inrush current is tough and
2) It will be used by "unauthorised personel", so Im afraid Amps during operation may climb too high...
Motor is 24 V 80A cont. I want to limit it to 100A max. Could be done with a fuse... Easy to replace in the field. I guess people will learn not to set the hoe too deep ;-)
Would it be possible to use something like Lee Harts Zener or light bulb plans, for no 1 or for both?
I have bulbs for 230V AC 500, 1000 or 2000W...
Any ideas anyone. As you may have guessed, Im quite new at this, so please bear with me. Regards John in Denmark.
