Bruce, I have several as well as a couple of recycled electric lawn mower motors. The mower motors are rated at 1.1 HP and 4000 RPM. As an experiment I set one up with a light dimmer switch and it ran fine unloaded as a demo! I would however use a motor controller in a real world application.

Could you give a quick rundown on removing the motor and controller from a treadmill?
?
And how do you identify the motor controller from the rest of the p c board?

I have two of them; takes about 15 minutes of roadside surgery with a leatherman or similar tool to yank it and the controller from one on bulky trash day :-)
