This is the enclosure.
Now, there is no info anywhere on their odd wiring.
The chargeport leads came connected to the leads1 coming from the PCB (which has a voltmeter, power button and usb output)
Because their replacement battery only has one small connector (to charge) and an XT60 (to discharge), I assume that it is expected to just connect leads2 from the PCB to the battery.
That would mean that the on button only controls the voltmeter display and the USB out. And that it charges through those tiny cables (AWG20?!).
I love this mashup and play of words and the outcome, and thanks for the skateshred link, I never knew such cheap decks exist (apart from the really pricey shipping), it’s awesome for DIY experimenters.
Skateshred is quite a gem. Though it is sometimes a miss. For example, their normal penny board deck is trash, while the just $5 more expensive bamboo version takes a beating.
See here with penny style trucks and shortened wheelbase. This is the ideal indoor cruiser IMO.
Yup, I have a build thread for the Akadi, the conclusion is its a bitch to ride even for me (body of a 16yo boy). It runs really nicely but once you hit a bump, you’er kinda in trouble
