Tinker, I can't argue with what you said.
As I'm getting ready to take my Warpverter to it's new home so I can do proper load testing, I've already designed my next 3 phase 100 volt warpVerter, which I hope to start building soon. A thought crossed my mind this afternoon, could I design a "little 2 kW" Warpverter as a backup. I would look to using a professional toroid winder for the two small transformers. Yes, a small Oz-inverter may be the more appropriate choice, we'll see.
Mark, 1000Ah @ 48volt, awesome
Mark, between, firstly Tony, Tinker and myself, you'll get your big FET boards going. You need to settle on a mechanical design and go from there. Some points I have are:
1. Using Heatsink as the Battery bus and or Transformer outputs. I have done this in my first, 26V warpverter but I'm leaning to NOT doing so in future. No big reason as yet, I'm just coming around to liking the idea isolating the FETs onto one big HEATsink.
2. Terminal blocks for FET connection. I'm not doing this, and the higher currents at 26volts makes this prudent I believe. I am attracted to the idea. Can make assembly a whole lot easier.
Cheers
