Re: Car Lift for Conversion
I've just picked up a pair of these from cj autos. Easy to move about and store, and maintains access to the underside.
Will probably end up getting a second set if they work out well.

Re: 71 Super Beetle conversion
Welcome! Would love to see some pics.
Look forward to following your build. I'm still deciding between a tesla m3 & outlander motor for my vw t2.
Where are you based?

Congratulations, that's a huge step & must be a big relief.
Really appreciated how you've documented your build. Will be invaluable when I start my T2 conversion next year...

Re: Writing application for Stm32F105 @ 25 MHz
One query I have is after programming/flashing, I need to fully power cycle things before SDO/CAN come back.
Likely some Init is missing, but if anyone noticed a similar issue and has a fix, would save me some time in trial and error.
I have the same, haven't found a way around needing to power ...

Re: [WIP] Voltswagen T2 -76
I think you should be able to use one of the pins on the iBooster for brake lights.
Pin 24 is "brake sys monitor" which in my testing goes 0V-12V when pressure/movement applied to the push rod.
Loving this build. Would you be willing to share the 3d files of the motor mount?

Re: [WIP] Leaf to VW Type 2 Campervan
Have you thought about ditching the pdm and using a more compact dc-dc and charger, or does the resolve controller limit you to the pdm? Zombieverter?
