Show me your top mount battery

Hmm I’ll look into it. This is what I was going off of. If you really advise to add it I’ll heed any good warning. Screenshot_20181226-163527_Chrome

Sooo loopkey to be safe? Got a bag of Xt90s in my stocking.

Pelican 1200 case holding 3 4S LiPos wired in series. There’s a lot of room left to possibly add 3 more LiPos in parallel. Case is attached to board with Velcro. 3D printer xt90s loopkey holder in top of box. I also have a step down converter mounted to underside of the lid and toggle switch top mounted for the 12v LED fog light. The pelican case length and width takes up all of the space between my feet. I wear a US 12.5 as reference.

My FOCBoxes, remote receiver, and Bluetooth module are all in the Trampa Beast Box at rear of board. I hadn’t planned to set it up that way, but got a good deal on the Beast Box that I couldn’t pass up. Now that it’s setup I like having the additional room to expand my battery capacity if needed.

I got a small enclosure from Jaycar in Sydney that holds 4x 6s1p batteries which equates to a 12s2p pack

My esc’s, anti spark switch and reciever sit in a small pelican case at the rear of the board next to the motors

Lithium pack users, who made your battery? Mostly everyone is just making flat packs now.

Lol everyone uses lithium packs here haha. I guess you mean ion? I would get in touch with ebike battery builders

The box is the same as on the pictures above. The lid is made of cardboard and carbon foil.

@rich what do you consider “crazy” range?

Yeah I really want to support @hyperIon1. They seem like good people and are always super responsive. @Trdolan03 give me a run down of those 4 buttons. Power, lights, underglow, charger maybe?

@venom121212 headlight, taillights, main power, underglow, USB port on/off

Hats off to you man. How did you mount to the deck? I’m debating on rubber gaskets + velcro or threaded insert. Do you have a build thread made yet?
