Hi, Art

you will find the whole "story" here:

and

in the end ... we used a 16F872/876 @ 4Mhz ... that allows a 245 Hz HPwm ... and you can use the TWO channels of the device, if needed .

an IRLZ 44 ( do not forget the flywheel diode !!! ) was used to drive power and a simple relay used for inverting polarity ...

May be MalcC will add here some "user infos" ...
