I have sent a message to the seller of the used Kelly controller on
EVTrading post as that appears to be the best option available right

The Zilla 1K would be my choice for a new build, as I've heard nothing
but good things about the Zillas...
A drop in replacement 1231C would be ideal for getting back on the road
quickly, but if I'm paying new prices I may decide to go with something
else (as the 1232C blew up ;>)
I'd seen the ZEVA controller listed online, and the 600 A one is nicely
priced, so it's good to hear from Matt that it works well for him.
Random comments:
Kelly controllers seem to be of lower quality than the others.
Don't try to use regen on the ADC FB4001 motor. Arc! Zap! Bang!
The Zilla controllers are great. I've had two.
It ain't easy to fix the Curtis 1231C, but it is possible (I've done
it). A lot depends on just how much damage was done when it failed. It
might be worse opening it up to take a look. If not too badly damaged,
get it fixed.
I don't have any experience with the ZEVA controllers, good or bad.

Just imagine the chaos if they learned to think logically, plan, create,
