[PSUBS-MAILIST] got motors

[hank pronk via Personal_Submersibles]

Brian,Nice, but keep it simple!  make a housing and end cap with a simple seal, either a spring seal or an o-ring.  The beauty of these motors is the low rpm.  Gamma used to have a 2 hp golf cart motor, well really a 3 hp running on 24v is 2 hp.  That was the entire drive.Hankhey why is the ground not white, it looks green?

 Hi All,              Looks like I'll be getting motors every week over the next month or so, kind of a slow dribble ( like wiki leaks ! only with motors !)  .  My new found friend over at the golf cart place is going to be ridding himself of all these carts that have been piling up.  But he has to see what is what, so at the end of every week I'll be hauling away motors !  today I got two motors (48 VDC) plus a drive shaft/ gear box.  I'm thinking that I should use the gear box as part of my drive.  One good thing about it is that it is an in-line configuration rather than a 90 degree.  Also it's a 6 to 1 reduction which is really great.  I might be able to make a custom pod to house everything.  I would like to run the whole thing in oil. Pics:  Brian
