Firstly I love this system, but I also think I have a beautiful example of a 4-5 :fire: pack sitting on a shelf here. When I get the balls to take it apart I’ll show you folks

So I’m building a new battery for someone’s Prototipo. They bought it, it showed up, and didn’t work properly. They reached out in the DIY NYC Eboarding chat and a few guys chimed in with things to check. After some back and forth, the person brought the board over, opened up, and I checked around with a meter. One of the groups was dead, reading 67 millivolts.

After talking about it, they opted not to only replace the dead P group, since he wasn’t thrilled with the condition of the battery build itself after looking at it.

Anyway, I’m making a new battery for it, and I’ll set it up and balance the wheels so it rides well enough.

Below is what I’m disassembling.

I rate it:

I lifted the last of the groups out, and oddly enough, the series connecting folded nickel popped right off.

I’m lifting the rating to:

The new adaptive 3 wheel drive. If the load is to high it automatically deploys a third wheel for more traction. Only available on crappy mounts that don’t quite fit mbs trucks.

This literally made my day. I got an honest laugh out of it. Thanks for sharing!

I also laughed a lot but my friend complaining about his back slowly got annoying.

Going for a patent or is he selling the manufacturing rights off immediately? :crazy_face:

Aha…this is that new, state-of-the-art, zero-joule welding technique I have heard about!

It’s supposed to save a lot of energy versus using all those pesky joules with a standard spot-welding setup. Verrry advanced stuff!
