As above my project is a budget build, uses a series wound dc motor, home built controller and I’m currently upgrading to bmw phev battery modules.
I was going to post a project thread up but suddenly realised such old non inverter tech might be frowned at on an inverter website , so maybe I should ask first....

It's absolutely welcome here! We are focused on the openinverter parts but anything else is just as cool. And the upgrade to BMW packs is relevant to lots of other converters here

It’s a really simple igbt chopper based on what Damien used in his budget built e36 I’ve used his gate driver board and the pwm is generated from an arduino uno which handles the logic side of things, I will post some more details in my project thread and share the code etc when I have tested the lastest version. I’m also currently working on a single logic and gate driver board,
