6yrs later, the app has finally been removed from the app store. I have the smaller Blink S board. Weirdly, although the remotes look the same, there is a toggle switch on the Blink S remote in the battery compartment to change modes. Thank goodness. I cannot control the head/tail lights anymore though. I may see if there is a way to install the app another way. I liked having the odometer to know how far i’ve ridden the board in total. The battery had become marginal so i’m going to rebuild the pack using the original strip BMS, and spot-weld 10 new Samsung cells onto it. The BMS looks fairly simple so i’m optimistic that it will function with the new cells. I’ll know soon.
You alive man? I still come back and watch these sometimes. I did the 83mm build and then got right into electronics as a hobby. I've learned so much since then and it's cause of you homie.
You didn't build anything you just took that off another board and put it on that one 😂😂😂 also if you're going to go take the time to do this why didn't you put the belt drive on on front an back
I dont know if this is a dumb idea but what if you placed the ESC and Battery pack in a drop leg pouch and attach it to the motor with a quick release connector of some sort
Nice vid. Sadly those containers for esc and battery won’t last long at all, putting those expensive parts at risk. Pelican style cases work much better
Can you make me one for my son's birthday. I'll buy all the materials. He has a long board already. And I bought him blue sharks wheels. How much will you charge me?
thus not totally comprehended those Electronic-related mechanics, I've just plainly basic for the scientific EV Circuits to cope with future rechargeable renews
I know I did a similar tests where I walked uphill three times and then rode my electric skateboard down while braking. And I gained two bars by doing so. It is good to know that you could charge your electric skateboard without an outside source if you absolutely had to. 😎
i need this battery " 10S2P 5200mAh 10S3P 7500 mAh " can you point me please where to get it? I have little understanding of the matter but want to build it myself
The percentages you state are not calculated correctly. You've calculated the percentages based on the overall voltage of the battery, when it should have been based on the 0-100% voltage range of the battery. Example - 10S pack would be 42v @ 100% and 36v @ 0%, meaning the percentage of charge/discharge should be calculated by dividing the voltage change by the 6V range of the pack... You also need to account for the discharge curve of the lipo pack as the majority of the capacity (80-90%) sits between 3.8v and 4.0v per cell on a lipo. This means that if you charge from 39v (3.9v/cell) to 40V (4.0v/cell), you've charged 40%-45% of the pack - but charging from 40V (4.0v/cell) to 42v (4.2v/cell) only means you've added around 10% to the capacity. If we work off of 80% of the capacity of the pack between 3.8 and 4.0v and calculate the charge increase of 0.032v, the math would be *(Voltage Change within 80% band/voltage band size) x 80%).* So in this case: *(0.032v/(40-38v range))x(80/100)) = 0.0128* or *1.28%*
Regenerative braking are literally the brakes. Any charge the battery receives is what's left over. You need to look up what regenerative braking is lol
I already have a 400-watt 1 wheeled electric board I need to put two 400-watt wheels on it will I have to change the control box which one should I get in the UK
Honestly found this out of curiosity as to whether e-boards had braking of any sort(figured regen braking was likely). Even just for the ability to brake it seems nice for long and/or steep hills...I'm thinking the likes that some insane kids go down on regular longboards with little to no protection risking possibly their life or at least horrible road rash and broken bones.
