currently riding a Bamboo GTX and guess what, the range sucks
I’m looking for an AT board with at least 30 miles real world range (92kg + 10kg backpack).
Landyachts Evo or Lacroix deck style preferred. EU based would be nice, because of VAT and customs. I’d have to pay like $3.755 for importing a La Croix…
I don’t know if I would be capable of building one myself… (I only have some experience with building electric helicopters )
If somebody has something to sell which fits my need or knows somebody, just hook me up with a message!
Would be greatly appreciated!
Better don’t get a battery from him if you don’t want to rebuild it directly again.
If you want a well made pack in the EU ask @pjotr47 he‘s doing a great job.
A 10s8p upgrade is possible.
But you need to think about: is it worth to do such a expensive upgrade for you board. Sometimes it is better to sell your board and start with a new
Yeah, that’s what I thought, too!
The GTX isn’t bad at all…but if I see all that Lacroix, Landyachts and other custom beauties…
The main problem is to find someone who is actually selling something well-built AND in my price scope (max. $2700) AND is in the EU… (that VAT, customs is killing every overseas boards)
The only reasonable board I found yet, is the Eskating Dual Beast Evo 12S5P version. But it’s going to be like $2500 and a lot of waiting time. What do you think? Don’t know if this board can carry my heavy ass to the 60km mark!
I don’t want to take your illusions, but with pneumatic wheels you can calculate about 20wh/km minimum (i need more likr 30wh/km), so 60km would need a battery with as min 1200wh. This would mean a 12s10p with 30q cells round about.
I don’t see any data logs. Maybe I just have overseen that. Not gonna start a trouble over that. If people get 14wh/km on pneumatics than ok that’s cool. I can just speak about my own experience and that’s definitly double of it. Maybe my riding style is so different from his (what’s pretty likely ) or my tires not pumped up enough… but I think I can say if you drive that power saving you either pretty light and slowly driving or you just invented the pneumatics super hix drive
I do most off the time 18wh/km on my trampa. My weight is only 70kg. Rinsing style is not crazy but also not that normal/boring.
If I keep it normal I can do 14wh/km. if I go really crazy I do 25wh/km
That sounds like the perfect amount of experience to competently build an electric skateboard as well
If you do decide to go that route, I have a Hummie deck with a double stack enclosure I could sell you for 200€ + shipping. I bought it for a bit less because it was a good deal, but I wouldn’t mind changing my build plans if someone wants it more than me
I just don’t want to see another guy telling his board a la sag i don’t say 14wh is impossible, just If that’s the range I aim for I would rather calculate with a value that is more average than with a value that is pretty much maxed out on the min scale. Still think that 20wh as average consumption is a good point to start with.
