My hat's off to anybody who can and does design his own controller!  From 
what I can tell, it's far from trivial.  And of course you get exactly 
what 
you want in a controller.

That said, I know a couple of people with ample EE / EV design chops who 
have chosen to buy instead of building their controllers themselves.  From 
what they tell me, having had previous experience designing and debugging 
controllers, they decided it would actually be cheaper to buy than to 
build 
from scratch. Also, they had a working EV in much less time.
