@DavidF duuuude I would buy this in a heartbeat
Do I smell a #HoseYourBoard challenge coming?
I donāt see why not.
what board?
also
lol 55 miles on 936Wh
Warboards Paladin
Yea, Iād like to know this too. I think something is being lost in the language barrier? If current and/or voltage is being regulated then so is the power level so you wonāt be able to go as fast or accelerate as hard. This is the only way to extend battery life.
But that can be done with ESC settings or by going slow so Iām not sure why they are claiming some kind of new tech at work here. Why regulate the packs output? Consistent power until the pack is empty?
LOLā¦so many questions.
āgood engineering and programmingā
bet itās a hobbywing esc
or lingyi if itās cheaper
which isnāt bad, but
Heās claiming to have made some magical regulator for his board designed and engineered in the US. It looks like it is mostly a kit from torque boards.
He makes all sorts of claims on the Facebook threads in the Electric Skateboard Club on FB
āi used a calculator with 100% efficiencyā
i donāt know where he got his info
but i donāt think any of the other boards are from japanā¦
(hurricane is also $500 cheaper )
VESC tool reported 10wh/km for the first 10 km of this ride for me, but as you can see I had to go real slow. So like, itās plausible, but definitely not real-world conditions Imo.
so i guess this is an extreme case of marketing of the performance
I want to know more about this custom onboard microprocessor regulator that puts off enough heat to need a heat sink and fan but somehow is ground breakingly efficient. His range test were based off ā50% drainā.
LOLā¦that caught my eye too. Claims what is extraordinary efficiency but talks about managing all the heat their electronics produce.
A calculated range test? Sheeshā¦.nothing like assumptions to make for an accurate range spec.
There are no miracle regulators. Adding a CC/CV regulator circuit to the pack to limit the power to the ESC is just thatā¦limiting the power that can be drawn to try to extend range at the expense of speed and/or torque. His mention of the extra heat management they needed just shows itās a conventional setup for throttling performance IMO to get more range.
A perfectly acceptable approach, if marketed appropriately.
Heat generated by āthe capacitors load on the regulatorā?
Iām no EE but isnāt that either technobabble or an allusion to a borkload of reactive power? A high power oscillator is the key to efficiency
I can get 40+ miles (65+ km) on 1kWh on 110mm 'thane while cruising and while being fat. Doing more than light cruising though will be a lot less. And on pneummies far, far less.
If I was skinny, severely restricted my top speed, and used small hard 'thane wheels, I could probably pull off 55mi (89km) but itād be a stretch.
Facebook⦠that basically explains everything⦠a hive of idiocy.
ya thatās what i was thinking
i get 30-35 on ~1.1kWh (i know itās not even close as a setup but iām also a stick so i can stretch easily)
and on my thane board i got ~10miles per 279Wh
i bet if i heavily reduce the current stuffs i could get close
but stretching it to get an extra 23 miles of range is a pretty hefty lot to ask for without also killing performance
Lmaooo 55 miles on that battery with pneumatics? I bet I could kill it in less than 30
To be fair it is an 8P pack but still
Also WOW that battery box is ugly lol
