Hummie. Enlarged the cutout. UD CF reinforced the base afterwards. Got it 95% completed, just need to finish mounting enclosure and electrics. Snapped my Achilles the night that I set it up on VESC tool, so it has stalled. :man_facepalming:

Yup. Heatshrinked them after plugging in.
Cable length is to allow for any flex (minimal)

UGHHHH NOOOO, I’m so sorry my dude, I sympathize completely. Fucking ankles are the worst kind of injury for esk8. Hope that sucker heals up asap

very cool approach, I’ll def be trying this on my next battery :call_me_hand: :call_me_hand:

not to derail too much, but what do you think about bindings for healing ankle injuries (broken ankles that give out; achilles injuries; stuff that makes the ankle unpredictably unstable at certain angles). Think that’s a potential worse-off? I feel like it’d be nice to be locked into place but am afraid it could be disastrous if you are in a position where you go flying forward off your board for any reason and the ankle is stuck.

@glyphiks made a modular pack split into 3 groups with connectors also on balance leads I think.

Sounds like a nightmare to me bro
Never ridden MtB or with bindings tho
Snowboard a bit, they don’t weigh as much and also slide when u bail.
A Heavy ESK8 board with sticky rubber anchors (tires)sounds like a recipe for injuries in a crash to me

Nice! Now you just have to figure out a way to make the ESC area clear so TSA doesn’t think the ESCs are bombs

Anyone know where I can find a wiring harness(26pin connection) for a Onewheel XR BMSor where I might be able to get the temp sensors?
