But it may not be as efficient as a more modern mosfet-based PWM controller (Curtis, Altrax, etc.). I won't try to explain the details (mostly because I'd only be parroting what I've read from smarter people), but it has to do with the lack of built-in capacitance in the EV-1, which is harder on a few golf cart batteries than it is on a gigantic forklift battery.ĭon't misunderstand: the EV-1 will work in a car. Mostly because I learned from the EVDL that an "old style" SCR (silicon controlled resistance) controller isn't really an ideal match for a small battery pack, such as in the ForkenSwift. Why didn't we use this controller in the car? We also still have the original General Electric EV-1 controller (not to be confused with General Motors fantastic EV1 electric car).
