It is. Those signs have been there for as long as I can remember, Iā€™ve been riding these trails for almost 20 years.

Cops, cyclist, pedestrians, Karens etc are not educated so they go by those signs. Personally only had one cop incident in the past 6 years with PEVs, the trail runs right past a police station and I was pull aside and educated the nice cop.

I was really just pulled in by Jesus walking. Then it was that 10mph thing. Which means ALL cyclist are guilty if they want to go by those ā€œrulesā€

Power to size seems about relative.

3/4 the voltage and ~3/4 the size.

@ShutterShock but how many amps can that 3d printed stormcore handle tho? :rofl:

If those voltages are even accurate. Sometimes those are ā€œrecommended maximum operating voltageā€ and sometimes they are ā€œcomponent rated voltageā€ and, in general, trusting specifications from folks profiting from a sale is unfortunately often a folly.

@NoWind

How strong are these? Ok for a street build with a 100kg alien on top?
Iā€™m in love with them.

What do you charge for these?

So @Ricco, if Iā€™m getting this right, the bullets were compressed too much and not making proper contact thus causing the abs fault?

In my experience they work themselves loose over time. Constant vibrations are concentrated at the fixed point. This has happened to nearly every panel mounted board iā€™ve done.

If you can make it so the wires have absolutely no room to vibrate/flex/move coming up to the panel mount, you would likely negate this from happening.

I hate panel mounts :face_with_symbols_over_mouth:

Iā€™ve experienced more reliability from panel mounts personally. But I also do clamp the wires to the deck about ~4cm after the connector. So maybe that is a big factor? IDK.

ok but, whatā€™s the better alternative? grommets and glands?

panel mounts do look really niceā€¦

The term ā€˜betterā€™ is subjective to the operator.

Iā€™ve been running my phases out between enclosure and deck with EVA foam as a gasket and connecting to motors in line outside of the enclosure. Working for me so far.

ā€œBetterā€ to me means more reliable. Cost or hassle be damned.

Doing what Al said, for me, is a disaster because itā€™s nigh impossible to fully waterproof while still being servicable.
