• Motor controller capacitors are currently charged with a constant voltage source and series resistor. This is always 50% efficient. For a challenger vehicle, it might be better to have a switching circuit (buck topology) to charge with constant current (which would also be faster).

• Keep to 12V by removing DC DC inversion

• Add hall effect sensor

• Make simpler by removing irrelevant portions (e.g. fan control and thermistor may have been exclusive to MOV since shorts less of an issue?)

  • Remove all isolated 12V connection

  • Replace with VBAT

• Replace HV FET with solid-state relays [May not implement. No big advantages for changes]

  • Q1 and Q2 system to be entirely replaced with solid-state relays

  • End changes

    • One end from HV_IN

    • Other end to pre-charge

      • iso_latch_out might be removed?
