Thanks Lutach, I didn't know you were so connected. BTW, it's
Automotive division... ;)
BRUSA is a joke if you ask me, for SURE they have the best components out there as far as quality and compactness (inverters are small), but the price....
$22,000 for a 100hp motor?! Come on, and $9000 for there 50kW inverter! How do they expect that to be feasible? If they are going to charge that much, then at least make some high powered units, something around 250Kw+.
Saminco, there inverter is not powerful enough. Aveox doesn't have anything. Semikron, nor Sevcon, I couldn't find any inverter at MS Kennedy, it think you were looking at an IGBT pack, the powre stage of an inverter.
AC Propulsion, I would love to use there system, $22,000 for motor/controller package, with built in 20kw battery charger, 220hp. They designed the power propulsion for the Tesla Roadster.
The best motors though, are made by UQM, they have a 125kw (167hp) motor system which weights 90lbs! $22,000 for motor/controller package. If i had the money, I would use it in my other EV project (light weight, high performance car) targeting 1000lbs curb weight, with at least 120hp, should get you from 0-60mph in < 4 secs, I'm aiming for 3 seconds. Won't be too hard with such a light weight. I'm also thinking of implementing a 10kw generator for long trips, with 200+mpg.
