You're not going to be using an electric outboard at sub zero Celsius. The water will be frozen, silly. :wink:

I had my board parked at an icecream shop last summer and this young boy walks by it with his family. With a loud very excited voice says... "I DON'T KNOW WHAT IT IS... BUT I WANT ONE!" Thought that was the Best eboard quote ever. :D

Turns out that my work went well with this split afterall. The problem was with my cheap DVM. The high scale on the voltage is fried. The meter can't read past 20V. I borrowed a calibrated Fluke meter from work (used for certifying welding procedures) it has no scale and adjusts accordingly but...

I wasn't sure if I could open the BMS or if things would fall apart on the inside with some of those screws. I can't see the other side. The heatsink is bonded to the FETs.

I wasn't sure if I could open the BMS or if things would fall apart on the inside with some of those screws. I can't see the other side. The heatsink is bonded to the FETs. D'OH! That makes sense. I was measuring off the pins on the back of the connector. When checking these voltages on the...

All pins are present and straight. Wondering if its possible that those high cells hit HVC and cut current??

The pack ( https://endless-sphere.com/forums/viewtopic.php?f=14&t=64348) is split between C9 and C10. I thought things went well until I checked voltages after the split. Need help troubleshooting... Pack was fully charged and not used since last fall. Before the split the pack was at 53.3V...

Good opportunity to check cell voltages at this time. Cells are well balanced.

All that is needed to split the pack is cut the packing tape between the 2 cells, remove that sense wire and cut that bus strip. Because I can optimise the orientation of the 2 packs (it will be a 60/40 split) it appears I will only have to solder the appropriate length of bus wire to rejoint...

Finally getting around to spitting the pack. It is very different than the GM pack in the link in my OP. This looks well put together and fits inside the aluminum housing like a glove. Not shrink wrapped instead covered on all sides with a sheet of G10 held on with double sided tape. Cells are...

The wavejet system has been the only system that that I have seen that looks to keep that surfboard snappyness of the surfboard. You do loose some flex of the board depending on board length. Very modular and very pricey. Can be fit tp any board with the minimum thickness. Its intended for...

If you hover your cursor over the links it will show you where the link actually takes you. Never where you think it should take you. Most of these emails will include links to the correct pages for the privacy policy and abuse policy to make them look legit. They are always addressed to the...

http://www.deskaboard.com Looks like these guys got their crowd funding. Nice looking board. The board reminds me of my Outback MountainBoard except way lighter, way lower, and more flexy. The steering looks different too. From the limited video it seems to behave similarly to my Outback when...

Cool that the calibration worked out. Sorry I can't help out with your other issue.
