you are most welcome my friend. Weāre here all week.
Iām a huge brick, I accidentally short circuited my battery (opened case, charging cable went were the screw goes, screwed in and connection was made between + and - poles). I cut the wires, can I solder back and all should be working ? Canāt believe I didnāt double check, it scared the shit outta me (sparkles everywhere)
You should always heat shrink any soldered wires or connectors to prevent this from happening. It is possible it is ok but possible it isnt. When stuff sparks it usually doesnt go well. What pos and neg poles where connected?
I have something currently been hacking a lung and mucus all day and night. Woke up yesterday with very little of a voice and my wife said I love the sound of silence 
. Did you guys get your flu shot? Glad you and the baby feel better. Make your girl some chicken noodle soup and some jello.

I wasnāt clear enough. I used a drill to screw back the enclosure but the charging cables (black & red) were in the way of the screw. The drill went through both wire at the same time creating a connection through the screw itselfā¦ The cable was heatshrinked.
Iām a big doodoo

Ok gotcha. Was the board on?
No. I was checking if everything was dry after my slightly last wet drive
ffs I didnt even think of the flu as an option for my sickness 
It started as a cold, got better for a day, moved to my throat, went away for 2 days, then came back 2x (finally gone nowā¦ a three week ordeal in total )
Maybe I should start getting my flu shot

Not bad at all. Maybe look for a focbox or 2 instead of flipsky based off of some user experiences here. They might still have some from enertion if youāre lucky. They pop up often for sale here too.

Thanks! So I would love a focbox but I am not sure if it is worth the additional ~$40ish. Just trying to keep the budget tight. What do you think?
I canāt personally speak to the flipsky but from all of my time here, in my opinion, itās like buying a Toyota vs a Hyundai. Lots of people still buy flipsky though!

Out of curiosity, does anyone know the most legal way to transfer a 25 lb Electric Skateboard with a 12s4p battery (over 500Wh) throughout the United States?
According to my research, UPS page 9 (figure 8) says it might require some āUPS Dangerous Goods contractā, but it is a bit confusing. I technically have a battery bigger than 300Wh (total), but technically the cells (each individual 18650 30Q cell) is less than 60Wh.
Ehemā¦ Asking for a friendā¦
Thanks!
EDIT: Additional research has lead to: https://pe.usps.com/text/pub52/pub52apxc_032.htm which indicates 8 cells or less. So sounds like USPS is out of the options.
How do battery builders typically handle something like this? Or battery resellers? Surely not everyone is certified to transfer these types of chemicalsā¦ (right?)

Tell āyour friendā that I think that you could prepackage in an airtight, fire resistance material and put it in a box and take a small chance shipping it normally
