DIWHY did you build this

This guy needs to come here and use his urethane casting and engineering skill for something even greater and logical. This is like one of best built weirdest builds. A lot of thought went into this even though it doesn’t follow any best practices we have set for ourselves.

“My next project: An ultra low-cost long-range esk8 build capable of 100km range. 2.4 kwh of deep-cycle lead acid batteries, 5-foot deck built out of 2x4s. Weight: 130 lsbs. (Album of the rough blocking out of the build–I promise the real build will look just as derpy) I dub it the ‘plankboard’” per the Reddit link.

Reminds me of that build with the piece of AL bar stock forming the deck: 🛹 3D design and stuff - #168 by Mr.Electronicist

You fucking lost me here. I was all with you but then you uttered a blasphemous phrase. Can’t support lead acid.

If you want a solid deep cycle cell, look into LTO or even LiFePo4. Lead batteries need to be retired as fast as possible for the sake of humanity and the rest of the planet.

Are you on an iPhone by any chance?

I’ve been meaning to get around to starting a build thread for this project, but just haven’t gotten around it it.
Till then,
