The simplest of all motor controllers (besides a straight on/off switch) is the contactor controller. Aaron designed this contactor controller for use in his electric scooter project . It is based around three 12V relays, two 12V batteries, two switches and of course a motor. Having no silicon to `fry`, it is quite reliable and robust. A contactor controller works by rearranging the two (or more) supply batteries between series and parallel. This gives the motor a slow speed (batteries in parallel, current adds) and a fast speed (batteries in series, voltage adds). This assures that both batteries are discharged equally. When the circuit is `at rest`, the batteries are connected in parallel, which allows easy recharging. visit page.
