I'm Otmar, your host and creator of this website. I started building electric car racing motor controllers in 1994. I designed and built a number of high power on-road EV motor controllers before I founded Cafe Electric llc in 2000.
I have been involved in at least a dozen gas to electric on road EV conversions as well as a number of electric race cars. I especially enjoy finding loop holes in common conceptions that allow designing a better / less expensive / easier-to-build device for us "little guys" to use in our custom conversions.
I created Cafe Electric llc in 2000 to design and develop the Zilla series of motor controllers.
