Does anyone have any info or pictures of the drivers controls on a small battery electric loco? Something like Greenbat for example.

Do you mean on the 12inch/foot locos?
We have a Greenbat at Ravenglass (which has been out of use for many years after its batteries stopped holding charge), I seem to remember that its controls were rather simple, what was basically a large switch for forwards/reverse and a power control handle, which was brass. The loco also has a handbrake. There was probably a switch for the lights as well.
