Fake 12S1P battery on the Inboard?

Was out riding my board again and in the start of the pack it has much more torque. If I made a 12S3P back would I be able to keep this longer or do they have something calculating the consumed mAh to guesstimate whats left on the pack? And is it usualy to put the amp limit in the BMS or in the ESC on the mainboard?

Typically you will have more torque and top end when the battery is fully charged since it has more voltage to work with. Not sure about their ESC but with the VESC you can set it up to start reducing the power at some voltage limit so they may have something similar to throttle the system down to get better range. That said if the power is going through the BMS to get to the ESC then it could be limited by both. Typically they don’t really monitor the mah though just use a voltage reading to guesstimate how much power they have left.

Is it possible to only change out the lipo’s in the battery pack? Like wrapping the 18650’s in shrink wrap, making a copy of the pack and changing only that out?

Does anyone know the name of the magnet connector used on the m1 packs. I want to make my own batteries using better cells and would like to use the factory charger.

Magnetic charging connector is something I tried to find, but I’ve had no luck. Everything I’ve found that was similar was only for currents 1A and lower… unless Inboard is using those I couldn’t find them.

I never owned an Inboard but wouldn’t getting your own charger with separate charging plugs be easier? Who knows if the Inboard one will work with a random battery/BMS.

You better use a 4A charger so you can charge really quick. It will be definitely easier for you to switch and not keep the magnet connector it’s gonna be a hassle to find.

Did you manage to build your own battery pack? Do you have the files to 3d print the cover? I can find them in internet.

Cheers man

Ordered everything last week so I’m waiting for parts to arrive. I may model the pack at some point but for now I do not plan on printing the case. Just going to heatshrink the pack and throw some foam in the tray so it doesn’t slide around. Also gave up on the magnet connector just gonna charge through the power lead.
