I just picked up one of these controls & want to convert it to run off my 12 volt lawn tractor battery. The control has connections for two seperate 7.2 volt ni-cad battery packs, & will run on "low"(7.2 volts) power with only one, or "high"(14.4volts) with two battery packs.
The connecters for the battery packs are just a two wire plug. My question for you electrical engineers is do I need to run my battery leads to the plugs for both battery packs to get the full voltage from my 12V battery, or can I just run to one connecter in the control box. I'm thinking I could just run to one battery connector & I should still get my full voltage at the controls, but I don't want to miss something .
Anyone else made this conversion?
