I think it has turned up that Samsung 30Q are actually a bit better (less sag and all) but you should ask this sort of stuff from @PXSS … Otherwise yeah, @barajabali can step in and recommend what cells for what setup to best get
Though the 30Q ones are a bit pricier… but also offer about 400-500mah more (depending on discharge)
25R seems to come at arond 2.2-2.3Ah when discharged at 5A or so… In comparison, 30Q seems to give off about 2,7-2.8Ah, so yeah ~0.4-0.5 ah more per cell.
Also, for eboards the cells probably wont be discharged till 2.5v… so a somewhat good cut-off at load might be at 2.8-3.0v probably.
The reason I suggest not to use samsung 25Rs is because they really are no better than Sanyo GA cells, which have 3500mah capacity, power wise even though they are rated twice as high. The best power cell avail is VTC6, samsung 30Q is similar but cheaper.
I love the idea of getting some of your wheels, trust me. Those things are works of art. Unfortunately I’ve welded my motor mounts in place, so I don’t know if they would fit on the trucks and still have room in between the motor mount for the pulleys (I’m using your awesome trucks of course). I checked out your website last night and it looked like you have newer wheels designed too, but I couldnt see a picture (might have just been because I was on my phone). If your wheels work with my existing hodge podge of a mechanical setup I’ll definitely buy some. Otherwise I may see how expensive it is to make some metal ones of my own that are just replicas of the plastic hubs I’m using. I have a little bit of 3d designing experience, asks might be able to pull it off. And if that doesn’t work I’ll just buy your wheels and all new everything!! Bwahahaha
My wheels are designed for use with versapulleys. They are adjustable width wise. Also my V1 wheels are centerset. V2’s are offset by about a 1/2 inch. This allows more room for 15mm pulleys. I think you’d be able to use them with your set up.
