Hello,
I have a 9-inch (230mm), "2500W" 220V AC angle grinder.
The maximal wattage I measured from the wall was 900W (without any load on the grinder).
I'm toying with the idea of using this angle grinder to power a small go-kart/trike, using a chain drive and a 1:10 gear ratio. I don't want to spend too much money, just use what I have laying around.
I have at home 3 x 48V 12AH lithium-ion batteries for electric bikes, I'm wondering whether it will be enough to power the grinder with enough torque to drive the go-kart in sub 20mph (30km/h) speeds, and for how long?
I have 2 pairs of bicycles that I welded together for a frame.
If not, I think I can get a cheap truck battery (12v 220AH) from a junk yard, and connect it to a pure sine wave inverter (My father has a spare 6kW inverter at his farm).
Are any of them feasible options?
