Well, I’m up to 180miles on the V3 now. The noise from the motor is still there but its still going strong, but I developed a charging issue. I always charge before heading to work(about 25% up to 100%), every workday. But on Tuesday the board and charger showed 100% and I set off, but right away I got a vibration from the remote, showing the board battery flashing. I had to manual push halfway to work, not bad but tiring lol!. I couldn’t test with my Wowgo charger because the plugs aren’t the same, so I opened the battery cover on the V3…

Yeah that might need some help
So After seeing the corrosion and the broken wire, I cleaned everything and then used a small heat-shrink connector to fix the wire. Tested that it now charges again, and then started sealing and securing the connectors with butyl.

I opened the ESC cover to check the connectors as well, but they looked good. I used the rest of the butyl to create a gasket around the battery and ESC cover. I have continued my normal use of the V3 and am happy to report no other issues since the repair.
Learning leason here, seal up your board properly if you regularly ride in ALL types of weather. lol

Meepo’s newest ESC i think the V6 does anyone know how many battery amps it pulls max? is it 30?

I got new one v6 installed, i really don’t know how to check but calculate 540w/36v=15a per side?
Correct me if wrong.

I thought these were supposed to be 36 or 40.

I am not sure, but I am thinking of offering a 10s3p 50e battery upgrade service. 5ah cells. 15ah is almost double of even the meepo ER battery which is made of 40t cells. Just want to make sure 50e can handle the current they are rated at 9.8 continues and close to 15amp for short pulses. I guess best way to find out is to get a meepo and test out the 10s3p 50e in one.

Check out meepos battery for classic 2.
It’s rated cont. 24a in 10s3p so 8a per cell?
But i assume its hobbywing esc so different play?
the latest hobbywing esc is rated for 60 cont. i think.
Ecomobl also uses this esc now, with the exact remote. What are the custom light functions if i may ask?
i dont use a meepo but this is the lights feature he was talking about

Better off with hobbywing imo, lingyi is death
why ask if you just gonna shit on it
wdym by death? Dangerous?
Hobbywing is pretty slow and sloppy esc and gets boring after couple of days, lingyi on other hand delivers lot of power and torque with reasonable efficiency. Once youve tried lingyi it’s hard to go back, all meepo 2’s are unridable to me, the acceleration is none existent and speed is lackluster. Only issue lingyi has is random cutout that happens if you don’t give it enough time to establish connection at the start, and safety mode that disables motors if you bail out of board at full speed. A restart fixes it easily.
Also many mentioned adjustable breaking speed of lingyi, lots of sites lie that you need ‘‘v3 remote’’ or something to get 3 breaking speeds. The V2 remote supports that aswell but youll quickly see that without full breaking enabled it gets dangerous quickly:

This used to be true. The old LingYi ESC’s were dangerous. Now, their most recent version is punchier than Hobbywing, still a little bit less predictable, but better in some people’s eyes.
They aren’t death traps anymore but still don’t compare to the power output capability of a proper VESC.
I wouldn’t want to ride anything that has this possibility lol
