So I have had two from @martinsp that failed on me from the first generation I suppose. Well the one that came before the one he is selling now.
Luckily it only happened the first time when I was accelerating from 30 to 50 and the second time going down hill from a bridge while braking .
The first time I could roll it out to a stop, and the second time it was at the end when I was almost at a stop already where it was level.
Can someone make one that’s a lot beefier and can withstand a whole lot of amps and not be prone to failure from vibration? I run 100 amps batt and 160 amps motor total on a dual setup.
I need it to work without a button and with auto turn off.
that’s where i’m headed with the Unity. I’m going to ditch the traditional fuel guage too and use something more interesting top side. I haven’t used the power switch on my board in a long minute.
I’ve ditched ALL fuel gauges on boards. 99% of the time when I’m riding I don’t need them – because it’s a board I’ve ridden before and I know about how far it goes. And I have feet to kick-push if absolutely necessary.
And for the 1% of the time when I do need them, I just pull-over and plug these into the charge port for a second, then go again. Or use bluetooth and Android.
It could be done, but the charge rates would be slow. For me, it’d be great because I have more than 1 board, but for many folks I fear it would charge too slowly.
Someone needs to make batteries like these from Luna Cycle. It adds a lot of weight I guess, but he is submerging and throwing the packs around in his office. https://youtu.be/40FTpT6-ryc
Sorry a bit off topic but those kind of packs, a push to start which would be controllable via Bluetooth and a sealed easy to maintain geared drive train with sealed motors would be the next step.
You will need the momentary type for the unity.
I am not sure on the voltage but I guess 3-6V
