Problem was , the fenders turned out to be a little bit short to be totally effective. Well, after washing off all the mud off my bag and golf clubs I made a modification...

    Winter Project... Design and Build an eScooter

    Summertime in Sacramento is quite warm. Consequently, the greenskeeper keeps the course well watered. It only took a couple of rounds with my scooter before it became apparent that I needed to make some changes. First, any puddle or muddy spot on the course immediately earned me a badge of...

    Winter Project... Design and Build an eScooter

    When I started this project back in November, I had no idea what I was gonna do with a scooter once I finished building one :? All I knew was that I wanted to build one :D Well, during this time, the powers to be at my country club decided to allow golf scooters to be used.... So, back to...

    Winter Project... Design and Build an eScooter

    Thanks Dui, What you are looking at in the picture is the crimp on connector for the charging wire (12 Gauge). The main power wire is an 8 Gauge wire that I hydraulically crimped to one of those hi amperage gold plated stereo rings and then bolted to the busbar. Should hopefully have the...

    Winter Project... Design and Build an eScooter

    Life has a way of interfering with the best laid plans... Unfortunately, one of those misguided events caused me to shelve my scooter project for a couple of months, but I'm back now :wink: When I last left off, I was trying to figure out my wiring scheme. I ended up pretty much wiring...

    Winter Project... Design and Build an eScooter

    So I dove into the wiring aspect :shock: Shoulda been a piece of cake. However couldn't get things to work the way I thought they should. So I took a step back and sat down and created a little wiring diagram. Before I jump back in, does anyone have any comments, corrections, or advice on this...

    Winter Project... Design and Build an eScooter

    So, I started wiring up the lights and hubmotor today. The hubmotor was pretty straightforward :wink: The lights, on the other hand were a bit of a challenge. As you recall I have the ground effects, LED headlights and LED tail/brake lights. They all operate off a 15 amp DC converter that will...

    How To Wire a 12V Brake Light and Turn Signals

    Amberwolf, Thank you for your reply. In my haste to post that last post I had a few typos. It should have read 2.2Kohms, not 22 , and 103 not 105. :oops: Thank you for the lesson on resistor values though. It will come in handy. Anyhow, I messed around a bit by putting varying voltages...
