Im waiting for the day that castle releases a controller bassed on to-220 or to-247 sized mosfets :) then i can power my e bike reliably :)

HV ICE uses Infineon BSC031N06 (3.1 milliohm, 60V)
Mamba XL uses Infineon BSC019N04 (1.9 milliohm, 40V)

You'll be waiting a long time (forever) for TO-220 or TO-247 based controllers from Castle... They switch like crap -- too much package inductance.

There are much better MOSFET packages coming. TO-220 and TO-247 were designed in the 1970s, and just don't handle high dV/dT well.
