Esk8 Build To Get To School

I’m not trying to patronise you, I’m simply telling you not to. Don’t you think there is a reason nobody here uses them with much success. The problem isn’t necessarily the amp output but the voltage sag under load. The cells are going to sag very heavily under high load like in esk8. I’m not trying to be rude, I’m only trying to save you and your property. It could work and that’s great but for how long, how long can these used cells last before dying under the abusive conditions they receive in an electric skateboard.

You should also expect the estimated range to be more like half as the voltage sag will stop you from discharging past a point so you won’t be able to use all available Wh

Ok, well I’m going to be commuting 2 miles so all I need is 22kmh, which will not strain the 11A burst cells, which are 2.5Ah average.
