How do I get my hands on one of these decks? Iā€™m searching ā€œfathom mini drop deckā€ or so and everything is unavailable/out of stock.

@ShutterShock, that was quick. Where did you get it from? Regular shipping from China? Did you test the fast charging yet?

Its coated and Theres a fine, waterproof mesh installed above the fan

waterproof mesh? How can air go through but not water?

Its near enough a hydrophobic mesh that repels water until it gets too much pressure. Itā€™s more a just in case scenario, I donā€™t plan to ride in the rain often

Lol, well actually more of a coincidence, itā€™s not my board, I revamped it for a mate who is quite happy with these, I just fitted a fresh set :slight_smile:

Got it from ali express! I love it so far, both of them fast charge both directions. I tried using my Samsung fast charger to charge each battery and both of them fast charged through USB-C just fine. In addition, they both output fast charging capability to my S10+ just fine. I tested them with my TS-80 and both of them powered it fine. Thereā€™s a little ticking? / coil whine / buzzing sound on occassion when using the higher fast charging modes (ts-80 uses 8v), not sure what thatā€™s about but it didnā€™t seem to affect itā€™s functionality.

Downside of sealed motors I guess. 86F isnā€™t that hot outside though, what kinda amps you running?

I have problems with all types of motors in summer, also open cans. There is a magic temperature threshold of about 24-26Ā°C (75-79Ā°F). Below I have almost zero problems, above the motors overheat every ride.

100 motor amps :joy:
I could decrease to 80A but it makes no difference. Maybe 50A would work but thatā€™s lame.

Last summer I had 6384 motors with open cans (80A) and was so desperate that I built this ridiculous 12V cooling setup powered by a 3s1p.

Well it worked but only during riding in reverse (or standstill) because there was no space to mount the fans in the direction of the natural airflow :man_facepalming:
