Do you have an idea of where you went wrong? I have had to rebuild some portions of a pack after an accidental short on my esc and this scares me

May need another sign here that says “please don’t sacrifice esk8s”

If Karam doesn’t come through with a deal on that board, hit me up too, I have something similar.

I’m amazed that the white Tesla doesn’t have any scars to show for its front row seat.

Pics of your work on the battery before it blew up?

Good idea, could be useful info on to what went wrong and how to prevent that.

I came back to look at the carnage again, and I’m really surprised the belts survived. Didn’t think they were all that fireproof.

This is the original build when I did it… Sorry that this happened. I’m glad you or no one got hurt.

Why did you decide to repair the battery yourself?

I had a lot of issues with the skateboard, like extremely high voltage sag and intermittent power loss. I opened the enclosure and found that many of the p-group connectors had cells that were no longer connected - it looks like the spot welds weren’t very deep and they failed. These pics are from before I fixed it.



I re-welded everything with a spot welder.

My theory is that cells may have been at very different states of wear and charge from some being disconnected, which caused failure under load.

Next time, share what you’re doing with us on here. Someone would have told you to check the balance of the pack before continuing.

Man, how’s the burn marks on the fish paper :flushed:

Sucks that this has happened dude.

I really hope that if anyone has issues with my packs that they would contact me about it.

Could have been worse…

You would have been well cooked…

I learned my lesson on that - will certainly reach out to the seller and post on this forum if anything battery related happens again.
