In this video, we delve into how a DC motor works! For this project, we used a series-wound DC motor originally salvaged from an electric forklift.

This video is one segment of an instructional video I created in 2010 from a home-built electric car I made in 2008. Of course, battery and motor technology has advanced quickly since then, and affordable, commercially-built, Electric Vehicles are now a reality.
This video series covers ONE low-tech and simple way of converting a car to electric. Many of these same ideas and techniques still apply to go-karts, motorcycles, boats, and lots of other projects. We hope that you enjoy watching these videos and learn a little something from them.
A simple electric car conversion project like this one uses
A 0-5k ohm potentiometer throttle: [ Ссылка ]
A motor controller up to 144V: [ Ссылка ]
A DC Series-Wound motor (9-inch diameter typical): [ Ссылка ]
Battery Charger to match your pack voltage: [ Ссылка ]
On this car, we used a simple power inlet: [ Ссылка ]
But that also meant we needed to design a separate circuit to disable the ability to drive while plugged-in. That's a built in feature of the now standard J1772 connection used in modern commercially-built cars.

You would then pair that with a standard J1772 EVSE: [ Ссылка ]
I show the internal connections you need for the J1772 communications at: [ Ссылка ]
