very impressive. looks like youve got a nice electric tractor there. like how many batteries ? and what kind of motor? im sure there is some kind of controler also. any info would be appreciated. thanks and keep up the good work!!!

there is no controller, just a switch and 80v of batteries hooked up to a treadmill motor which i hooked up to the transaxle belt

I know this is a re-post but how is it coming along? Are you cutting grass with it yet?

[JHx86]

it doesnt have enough hp to cut grass and i dont have a deck for it and the motor is burnt out. i got another motor and im going to put it on a small go-cart, i just need to get a sprocket from an old gocart clutch and get it welded to the motor and get the motor mounted before i can start test driving it.

what's with all the noise though

[JHx86]

i forgot to take the visegrip off the bolt holding the motor so the pulley was rubbing against it making all that noise.
