About
Well there's no sense in blowing anyone's mind with the amazing feats of me. So in short I build motor controllers for DC motor systems, specifically lower voltage higher amperage (12v-90v, 300A to 800A).
I love toys but the ones I build for work cost a bit more than good 'ol petrol so I've been slowly making my 1981 XJ650 Maxim road worthy. Mostly thanks to this site.
