“Sooooo when you getting a EUC” says every EUC rider in San Diego -nope I’m a skater 
Wowzers. The addiction is real! Two years in Esk8 already and onto my fourth board. Exway Flex, Ownbard Zeus, Stooge V5 and now Tomiboi Odachi, the Zeus was really doing the job for me until I built a race board. Since then noticed the lack of power and desire for more speed on the cruiser board. My second diy, first one done solely on my own.
Goals for this build:
-better performance
-big range, ride to and from group rides, maybe join faster longer EUC rides (Also have some super ambitious skate packing trips)
-fast charging 40A capable (3 hours sitting in a parking lot charging on a trip gets old quick, especially if more than one charge needed in a day) ** I understand fast charging results in faster battery degradation, would be used sparingly even though 40A into a 10p group is less than 1C charge rate. Plan to regularly charge to 4.1v per cell and charge at much more conservative current…
Parts Breakdown:
Tomiboi Odachi V2 20mm drop
240mm Tito Duality Trucks
6485 173kv Reacher motors
My own BAK 45D 16s10p battery build
D100
GB lite remote (appears to be lost in mail). Will use flipsky vx4 pro in the meantime
175mm Mboard nova tires on Tomiboi hubba-hubs
67t/18t SRB open gear drives
Daly BMS 40A
Battery Build
16S10P BAK 45D
That’s a whole lot of cells! Quick back of the napkin math the p groups are so large that the cells shouldn’t be stressed hard at all. 75 battery amps per side for 150A total battery amps / 10p group is 15A draw per cell. I can pull that battery current on my raceboard and probably won’t be pushing this board that hard. Peace of mind.
All ready for series connections, which I’ll wait for esc and heatsink to arrive first to make sure clearances are good.
Plan on using 4 12AWG wires per series connection. Unsure if I’ll use 8 or 10AWG for battery main + and - yet.
ESC/ Electronics (coming soon)
Makerx d100 on back order with mboard. Hopefully have in coming weeks. Will need to cut heatsink hole into enclosure. Will be focusing on clean cable management and strain relief.
Testing wheel clearances, motor mounts on backward, oops.
