Commentary

The box is held on to the deck with some of that really strong hook and loop strips. I also added rubber to dampen vibrations. The next thing I’m doing is printing some covers for the belt drives. They’re super loud but make people take me seriously. I also bought some 85V LED’s so I don’t need to have a buck in my build for lights. Also, do you know someone I could get to print some of these for me? I’ll make it worth your time $$. My 3DP isn’t large enough to print them.

13s 4p unity, 3 bits of nickle in your series connections. Living life on the absolute edge there

Each of those is 2x layers of nickel, just didn’t show in the pic

It’s still pretty bad because of the layout… all cells should have direct nickel connections to the nearest cell of the next P-group.

Maybe I’ll weld some 30mmx0.2mm strip over them in the future. For now, I’ll lower my battery rating.

So I lowered it to 70A, I rarely ever hold full throttle longer than 6 seconds.

Thanks for the prints @surfnacho! They came out great. I gave them a coat of epoxy and installed the belt covers last night. Also got a smaller motor pulley to get some more torque.

Ready for the snow!

Next up is the concave inserts. This one I’m more nervous for.

Blew a sensor today in the snow. I knew I should’ve sealed the sensor board oh well. I CANNOT STAND SENSORLESS STARTUP! HFI never worked for me so I don’t wanna hear it @b264!

I’m looking at encoders now. Where should I get them? I really really really do not want to solder those tiny ass wires so I’d prefer something that already has the same connector.

Fuck

Edit:

What is this thing? Can I get rid of it? What is the name of the connector that the unity uses for sensors? I looked for diagrams but none have the name included.

But sensorless makes such a nice noise. :smiling_face_with_three_hearts:

I’m switching to a bigger blacker box. I’m also adding a better charge port and one of @surfnacho 's heatsinks

The extra room will let me add 100W of 12V accessory power for lights and USB PD fast charging.

I’ve made some changes so here’s an update

Also I added lights. I didn’t have a good way to route power to the front of the board without having some ugly exposed wire. So I did research and found this cool flat wire that goes under the grip tape no problem.



The lights are from LaCroix bought used. They’re hooked up to a 12v 120W buck in the board
