Hi all
Apologies if this has answered/in the wrong place or been covered before.
Question - Has anyone worked a way of powering the inverter from a 3 phase plug until I get a battery
Short introduction Trying to convert a Peugeot on a budget while leaving room to explain if I don't blow myself up. The project has a budget of 4k but it also has to be fun so it will have FWD and RWD. The most costly part of the project will be the battery pack, I could bore you with the spreadsheets and costing I have to date. I haven't made a selection yet but want to test what I have done to date.
I'm running an Auris inverter with a 2 motor chip from Damien to run the following for a start (cheaper than the Prius one ) - Prius gen2 gearbox at the front and an MGR in the rear
Yes, that is three motors and only 2 ways of control - The thinking is, use MG2 and MGR to start movement then turn off MGR and turn MG1 on at a set speed. This may be changed out for a rav4 inverter when I get my hands on one cheaply or another solution.
Let me know if I'm missing any info

I mean you could “possibly “ supply power to mg2 and rectify it to the dc bus.
or just wire 4 12v car batteries in series

Three phase is 400+ volt between phases, rather too high once rectified and smoothed.
For no load running, single phase will do;

Ok single phase the way to go for now - thank you
and a great video series I haven't come across yet
Have 2 ordered now - because it's me

Do you think that we can do this with Damien's board too? Hopefully one of the guy's will jump in here and give some thoughts on this.SciroccoEV wrote: ↑Thu Nov 19, 2020 7:33 pm Three phase is 400+ volt between phases, rather too high once rectified and smoothed.
