That's a nice guard, I've only seen the half open crescent that is supposed to protect the user from sticking their finger into the wheel.

That's not a bad idea. For this kind of amperage you would need a beefy fuse. Assuming a 58v 500w motor something like this.

58v x 7.5a = 435w, so this would blow before full power. A 10a fuse wouldn't blow until 580w which would probably be a better option.

The other comments are right, using good components and wires rated for the load, and ensure connections are tight and soldered where possible.

I'm glad to be living in our modern age. Worst case scenario, l have a one bedroom apartment and a gaming computer playing solitaire while being high AF listening to music on Spotify.

I'm tired of hearing that housing the disenfranchised is a large complex problem. This has been going on for the past decade at least, and there are still huge problems with finding affordable housing.

The news last week was corporate pricing is raising costs, and interest rates were not having the desired effect. However this week we see interest rates going up, along the corporate price gouging.

Alberta grain farmers work hard for their money and are vital to food security and I believe they are struggling under corporate influence and government management. I hope this brings sustainable change for grain producers.
