Iā€™ll take the throwaway purples on the right, seems like you need more space on your bench :innocent: what are you planning with so many batteries, a Kwh of range?

Was exploring if I could replace the steel shielded bearings for rubber sealed bearings for these 58Kv esk8shop DD motors as precaution. I wonā€™t now, not untill I am desperate.

Insert obligatory shame for lack of helmet. ā€œYou should know betterā€ yadda yadda.

Now on to what everyone is actually wondering, what are the specs on this beauty? :joy:

Yeah I deserve that. Started off just to see if it would move and ended up going to the park and back :disappointed:

Funny you should ask, this is an old scooter (like the one I showed you in the other thread) I tried to convert into an esk8 before I knew you guys existed. It has a 24v 500W brushed motor and ran on 2 12v sla batteries.

I put an aliexpress 36v ā€œlithium ionā€ battery in it and it went 50% faster and was actually somewhat fun. It has a big 12" real wheel and mtb trucks up front on a completely flat deck. Turns like a semi still. Itā€™s a chain drive and Iā€™m considering turning it into something like a snow esk8 using some cut down broken skis, a big rear tire, and my 3d printing skills.

The battery died and the speed controller was annoying that I couldnā€™t program things so I googled programmable speed controller and found out I was streets behind.

Bruh that some OG esk8 action did you get that of Craigslist. Cable throttle. I have a Revo esk8 I bought off eBay that sucker had SLA batteries and a DC motor. It still runs best downhill and brakes what brakes.
