Thanks for all the answers on the 12 volt battery.. The Barbie rat jeep is
now cooking on 18 volts (combo of 12 and 6 volt batteries). High speed up
from 5 mph to around 8 mph Starting to wire a TURBO switch for short burst
of 24 volts.. shooting for over 10 mph (wife hates the idea but hay....
more
power)..
At 18 volts I am starting to worry about the plastic gear box holding up.
The kids are doing rev. slams to get it to pull wheelies. The power wheels
idea of a controller is an on/off switch. Is there a easy/cheap way to
build a board that would ramp up the volts when the power is sent to the
motors... Something that might start at 1/3 voltage then jump to 2/3
voltage then full power.. Just something that would ram up the power a
little instead of complete tork at once.. I said easy because I have
little
electrically experience so I need the kis approach. (keep it simple)
At this point the e12m won't keep up... Maybe... No... Still need the
old girl to mow the lawn....
