Fried Eggs and Ham ...

Short story:
Friday, 9/9/2022: Warm day 90+, pulling max power, up a fairly long grade on Hwy 195. At the top of the hill, I let up on the accelerator pedal and the power immediately dropped to zero. I pushed the pedal back in a bit and "whamo" it went to full 100% power. Let off and zero power. Using FULL ON/FULL OFF, I ratcheted into the Pullman Building Supply parking lot. The good people there helped push me into a suitable parking spot whereby I called a tow truck. Controller fried!

I have been looking for an excuse to upgrade from the current 500 Amp controller to a 1000 Amp controller. I think I just found one! <smile>
