[Electric Boats] Re: using dual DC motors with one controller

 

If you connect the motors in parallel they will share the current, if you have a 200 amp controller each motor will see 100 amps and full voltage. if you connect is series each motor will see all the current, 200 amps but split the voltage, so in a pm motor it would spin at 1/2 speed or you could double the voltage to get full speed back. In some cases 1/2 speed might be okay for your application. so one controller might work for you!
