I recently bought two used Jazzy Wheelchair motors, and I am not willing to spend 200-ish dollars on a suitable motor controller. What I wonder is how to use a scooter motor controller? Has anyone interfaced them before? What was your outcome? Thanks!
EDIT: I want speed control so PWM is a must (so relays are out of the question)
EDIT: Also does a springed DC Motor require PWM, or can I just connect it to a regular output and send high and low commands?
EDIT: I found this: http://www.diverseelectronicservices.com/html/mc7_motor_controller.html
is it suitable?
And I dont know the wheelchair motors stall current, but the voltage is 24v each, and I am purchasing two 12v Sealed Lead Acid Batts rated at 18aH
