Re: (ET) Recommendations for modern replacements for the electronics?

[Jim Coate <jbc_lists_NO_REPLY coate org>]

Disclosure:  I am a reseller of Alltrax controllers, Lester chargers, 
and all things Elec-Trak :-)

The Alltrax DCX300-ET controller for the Elec-Trak is here:
http://electrictractorstore.com/index.php?main_page=product_info&products_id=41
The Electric Tractor Store is the only Alltrax dealer carrying this 
special version of the controller.

HOWEVER, first you need to know what version of the E12 you have! The 
later versions (E12JA, I believe) used a permanent magnet drive motor 
which will *not* work with this controller. I can sell you a different 
Alltrax controller to match, but you will need to add a reversing 
contactor which increases the complexity. If you want to do so, we'll talk.

I have battery boxes in production, although shipping from the US:

I have to go house hunting; more on chargers later!
