12s8p top box enclosure

Thanks man! It’s an MBS Pro 97 deck

It had some cosmetic damage on the nose but needed cut anyway so I sent it to Mike and Tim to work their magic. Certainly won’t get any bite on my gear drives now.

I thought it might be. Looks sharp as hell (no pun)! I’m gonna use a comp 95. Hopefully it’ll be a solid deck to build upon. Hadn’t considered needing to modify to prevent bite. Not using gears tho, so might help to make a difference… excited to see this whip in all its glory!! Any recommendations for the hubs? Mine came with twistars which I likely won’t implement. They have the pro version of the rockstar or 5star which I’m considering, but not sure if it’s necessary.
Sorry to derail the thread people!!

I built a Comp 95 for my GF and it works worth the 72T pulleys MBS makes, running Matrix II and 5 Stars

Looks awesome man!

Haha it’s really rough up close, we built that thing in a single night

Hell of a tight squeeze

Pelican storm iM2050 fits an 18650 12s8p NESE Pack and BMS perfectly

@Flasher I love that sticker

Take the rubber out… Just cut the edge of the seal off where the box sandwiches and you’ll love that extra space.

ZachTetra · July 13, 2020, 4:58pm

It’s already sealed up so we are leaving it as is, so far there is nothing concerning…it was just a pain to get everything to fir the first time

12s13p 20700 and 2 unities in the box on the left

10s6p 18650 with smart bms in the middle on the right, 2 x makerx sv6 in the rear box on the right.

All custom made fibreglass

Can you send me a picture of the space you have inside? I would like to fit my escs in the case aswell

ApexBoards · July 14, 2020, 11:45am

We just got this finished last night, 12S8P, Smart BMS and decent charge port in a pelican 1200 case

JoeyZ5 · July 14, 2020, 1:06pm

There is pretty much no extra space in the case, there is around 6mm between the top of the battery and the case. I posted it here:

I can’t bump this because I don’t have a pic handy… but this thread has a lot of good stuff and could use more!

Cheap pelican style case that can hold you over till you want something more sleek! https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B013Z7474O/ref=ya_aw_od_pi?ie=UTF8&psc=1

At that point you just entered the big box territory.

drone001 · July 8, 2021, 1:21am

Did you wire the Neg(-) of the buck converter to the P- of the BMS?

Flasher · July 8, 2021, 2:08am

If I remember that build well, the buck was connected to the secondary battery ( a drill pack) through its normal outputs

drone001 · July 8, 2021, 2:10am

ohh ok cool, thx

I just picked up a vault and a seahorse… both really great boxes. Gonna be designing a quick swap system… maybe not ha I really wanna ride it.
