how is the splash up going through that? would love a vid
Funny; the video I almost took was me hosing off the skate when I got home. I didn’t want the salt eating it alive in the closet.
Nah it doesn’t affect it at alll.
Mostly the steel bolts (truck hardware) and wheel and motor bearings. If you built it well, everything else is mostly inert.
An update: the Unity has blown its antispark already after just shy of two months and probably 60 power cycles -ish. (I usually turn it on about once per day, because I have the shutdown timeout set at 5 hours)
Luckily, I wired it with a loopkey from the get-go so there is no repair needed. The power button changed to a power light is the only difference now.
nothing to do with the water right>
Honestly, I didn’t open it.
It works now so it’s not getting opened unless/until it ceases to work safely.
I was thinking water on the power button
hmm rubber cap over power switch seems like a good idea. Can just print it.
Yeah this thought I had also but I don’t know if that would cause this failure mode.
But I don’t know.
It also did something really weird right at that moment, so IDK
right shorting it out should be ok
but fucin no way I’d figure it out.
If the board works, it’s staying together
I’ve learned my lessons. I have other boards that don’t work that need the attention.
Nope; the board works right now.
Loopkey for the win
Have you just had the metroboard enclosures around for a while? or do you reach out to metroboard for old unlisted stock?
Checked out metros site, but they don’t even have them in their legacy parts section
I bought old stock. They don’t carry the clamps anymore though, I manufactured those from welded aluminum and cork.
It’s Bioboards.
So… your sayin they’re gonna be $250 a pop
Not a bad deal if they are really good
