Thought jet make a jet potato thatā€™s a spud with a tale ā€¦

367

I wish eBoostedā€™s enclosure was juuuust a bit deeper for the Spud using the BKB 11s3p kit battery. Even with the foam edging Iā€™m having trouble getting it to seal

368

Did yuu try with a gasket? Itā€™s call like gasket d shape. Yup find for cheap on Ali anche give you up to 5-6 mm plus great sealing.

Danm really? is it the sides having trouble closing? I have yet to do a clamp test but from what I see so far i thought it would close no problem

is it the concave getting in the way?

371

Yeah, it seems that is the curvature of the deck that is touching the center of the battery. I havenā€™t velcroā€™d it down yet either, which may add another 1-2mm. I may try to sand down the bottom of the deck just a hair to flatten it where it makes contact w/ the battery. Iā€™m fairly lightweight so Iā€™m not too worried about flex

372

The measurement is with velcro so about 21-22mm tall.

How thick neoprene were you using? Iā€™m thinking of looking at other soundproof foam since neoprene is flammable. Iā€™m also thinking of getting that P-stylle Gasket! Itā€™s perfect.

373

Iā€™ll take a measurement tonight. BKB sent it along with the enclosure/battery kit. Iā€™m guessing itā€™s 5mm?

I just finished the Tayto build this weekend and ran into the same issue. Sorry! These are the little kinks that I wanted to get worked out in the ā€œbeta kitsā€. image This is the stuff I ended up using, its a few mm thicker and it seals up nicely. You can get it for like $3 at Home Depot, or I can send you some from the roll I have. You can probably even get a little bit thicker one as well.

Yes exactly. Worst case scenario adesive foam for sealing on one side and gasket on the other. You will get up to 1 cm for sure.

376

Do you still have them in stock ? BTW. Where are you based ? CALI ? Also ā€¦you donā€™t have any eboosted enclosures left do you ? Also ā€¦is Tayto in stock ? and also ā€¦is the double stack eboosted enclosure going to fit Tayto ?

Yes the Spud is still in stock. I am based in Pennsylvania, USA.

The Tayto is on pre-order. Both eboosted spud enclosure (single and double stack) will fit the tayto. They will be in stock today (enclosures)

No lie, It took me a while to decide if I should wait for the Tayto or get the Spud now. I am without a board now since I have a hairline fracture in my main board. Stupid crap! It sucks to wait though, but it is what it is!

379

Awesome ā€¦I think Iā€™d place an order for either the spud or tayto with the double stack enclosure. I need something super small for short quick commutes.

Not yet Iā€™ve called three times and sent emailsā€¦ Iā€™d switch manufacturers if they didnā€™t own the deck mold.

They eventually send them but I donā€™t have a firm date yet. I only got an email a few weeks ago about them being delayed, nothing since then unfortunately
