I also configured the K&W BC-20 for 96 volts and tried it out. So far so good, but I need to make a water proof box because this charger is setup to be on off board charger. It was setup this way when I bought it, and I decided to keep it that way.
I also installed the PakTrakr into the dash. It previous sat on the passenger's seat, and it was always in the way when I took someone for a ride, or picked up someone.
I redid my battery pack wiring with the new 2/0 gauge cables I got with the lot I purchased that included the charger, motor, meters, etc. I cleaned up the connections and they fit perfectly. The battery pack is much cleaner now and is presentable.
The last thing I did was work on the FB1-4001A. I had to adjust the timing from CCW to CW. I also greased up the bearings and the next thing I need to do is check the brushes and use the brush stone to reseat them.
I haven't driven the EV this past weekend because of all the work I was doing on it. I probably won't be able to work on it until Friday or this weekend, but I intend to contact the machine shop about getting the new plates made for this motor.

You really-really need to work on that sticker inside the gas cap.
Anyone following those instructions is going to be in deep trouble!! :)
Something like "Electrons Only" ???
Seriously though, that's looking great. The PakTrakr looks nice and professional there on the dash.
You know I didn't even notice that stupid sticker? It's snowing now, but once it stops I am tearing that thing off!
I took the EV for a drive today and notice my PakTrakr is going all over the place, so I need to get EMI Chokes to help with interference. I made an extension cable and placed the remotes closer to the batteries.
What did you use for your blower? It looks a bit like a hair dryer but is it something I can buy off the shelf? Are they supplied my the motor manufacturer?
I'm thinking of putting a bonnet scoop on my Pulsar and linking up the silver hose from that to the blower and into the motor.
It's a 3"x3" 12 volt blower I got off eBay. It was designed to cool braking system for NASCAR, but does wonder to little series wound motors.
I needed it to keep the little sucker cool, but the 9" shouldn't need one since it's designed for the AMPs.
