I really want to get these hubs in my hands
After playing a lot with them on ebikes.ca simulator I can say they definitely did something right with the design
I’d prefer real longboard wheels myself

Yup! It was close. Started on a group ride, 2 minutes later power stopped. Kicked back to my car, opened it up and found one or two of the bullet connectors that had been heat shrinked but nothing else had worked their way loose a bit. I honestly don’t know how the XT-90 adapter melted, but I’m guessing the positive and negative bullets that connect everything contacted/shorted just enough to heat the wires, melting the connections out of the XT-90 adapter until coming loose completely, breaking the short.
Got lucky it seems. I’ve since used some heavy duty electrical tape around everything in the battery enclosure that could have the potential to work loose and everything is back in working order.

I’ve got a couple of a few styles on order. I like the idea of individual motor ports personally.
There are things you can do to seal them further, but IP67 is pretty solid for this application even

I got no idea what’s going on but this reminds me too much of those dads that take their kids to a heavy metal concert and be like “I’m the coolest dad ever! Wish my dad would had done the same” while the kids are screaming for help inside if themselves

Yo, these p-groups should be properly insulated. Shorts between the casings can occur from vibration ripping the pink insulation

There is not only the duck tape 
I‘m not a battery build expert but duck tape doesn’t replace fishpaper.
Maybe somebody else can have a eye on the welds and the routine of the balance wires?
