 The Internet has many new, very inexpensive "​Chinese Controllers"​ floating around, in both brushed an brushless forms. ​ They are generally designed for usage in scooters or e-bikes. ​ There are also higher-powered controllers available for golf carts, but are generally much more expensive. The Internet has many new, very inexpensive "​Chinese Controllers"​ floating around, in both brushed an brushless forms. ​ They are generally designed for usage in scooters or e-bikes. ​ There are also higher-powered controllers available for golf carts, but are generally much more expensive.
 +  * in 2018, a 48V 1500/1800 watt brushless chinese controller was available on ebay for ~$27 price point.
 +  * this family of controllers has:
 +    * low-current e-stop wire pinned out that must be tied high for the controller to be enabled.
 +    * reverse input
 +    * top speed cut-off selector (typically does not change acceleration curve)
 +    * accepts both(?) hall and resistive style throttles???​ (need to confirm)
