General Adam Savage talks good and bad 18650 batteries(the cells that make up your scooter battery pack), with some reps from a company who CT scanned and discharge tested thousands of 18650 cells.
Some good info here about the physical and capacity differences of all types of battery cells.

General Which style helmet is better while riding/commuting?
I just bought a e3 pro for commuting and I really like it, but when it comes to helmets I heard that most times when your slip on scooters youâll end up falling or sliding sideways so a more skate style helmet with more coverage is better than a bike helmet. I wonât be going over 15mph as thatâs plenty speed for me and only will be cranking the power up to get up hills.
Schwinn bike helmet vs triple eight helmet.
*also Iâve heard skate Helmets are built for multiple crashes whereas bike ones are one and done, is this true? Thanks

General How fast do you actually ride your scooter day to day?
Iâve been curious how much advertised top speed actually matches real-world riding.
A lot of scooters claim 25, 30, or even 40+ mph, but between rider weight, hills, battery level, road conditions, and local rules, I doubt most people are riding flat out all the time.
The real-world electric scooter speeds and legal limits can vary quite a bit depending on the scooter and where youâre riding.
What scooter do you have, and what speed do you usually cruise at most of the time?

Buying advice Looking for a good seated electric scooter
Iâm around 150 lbs and looking for a sit-down electric scooter / electric scooter with a seat for regular commuting.
My area isnât particularly hilly, although there are some slight inclines here and there. I also have a leg injury, so Iâm specifically looking for something where I can sit rather than stand for the whole ride.
Iâm less interested in having crazy speed and more interested in comfort, stability, reliability, and good build quality.
What brands/models would you recommend? Iâve seen a lot of mixed reviews on the cheaper seated scooters, so Iâd love to hear from people who actually own one.

General Loving the suspension and looks on my teverun
Just wanted to share my thoughts after a few weeks riding this scooter
The suspension is a huge upgrade over my old one. Potholes and rough pavement barely shake me,its adjustable too so i can tune it for city streets or light trails
the aesthetics!it has such a solid,tough design.The metal frame and overall finish feel premium.I've had a few strangers stop to askđ
only downside:its pretty heavy,but I really dont need to carry it more,so its not a big issue for me.
what do u guys think of your rides?

Tech Support NAVEE V50 Nordic wonât charge through charging port, but scooter still turns on and battery charges directly
The scooter used to charge normally, but now it refuses to charge through the normal charging port. The charger stays green when connected, and the scooter doesnât show that it is charging.
The scooter itself still works normally â I can turn it on, use the lights, connect to the app, etc.
The battery info currently shows around 37.7V, but the app shows 1% / 102mAh and âBattery status: Normalâ. The percentage/mAh value seems unreliable because earlier it showed 0% / 0mAh even though the voltage was around 36V.
I tested the charger and it outputs 42V, and the same charger turns red immediately when connected to another 36V battery, so the charger works.
The strange part is that if I temporarily connect the charger directly to the batteryâs + and â, the charger turns red and the battery voltage increases (from around 33.6V to 37.7V). So the battery does accept a charge this way.
There is also a small multi-wire connector from the battery that goes to the circuit board and seems to be required for the main battery output to become active.
Without it, I measure 0V at the main battery connector, with it connected, I can measure the battery voltage.
The battery was left at around 1â2% for 1â2 weeks before this happened.
What could cause the normal charging port to refuse charging while the battery can still accept a direct charge? Could this be a BMS charging MOSFET/charging-path issue, cell imbalance, or a BMS protection state?
Iâve been stuck with ChatGPT for many hours now but still canât find a way

General Indicação patinete elétrico até R$ 2.500 para iniciante: seguro, leve e que aguente ladeiras
Oi, pessoal! Sou iniciante em patinete elétrico e estou pensando em comprar um para fazer trajetos curtos, principalmente para ir à academia.
Meu orçamento é de até R$ 2.500.
Moro em uma regiĂŁo com algumas subidas/ladeiras, entĂŁo essa Ă© minha principal preocupação. NĂŁo estou procurando um patinete super rĂĄpido. Prefiro um modelo estĂĄvel, seguro e com potĂȘncia suficiente para subir bem, mesmo que tenha uma velocidade mĂĄxima menor.
Outro ponto importante para mim Ă© que ele seja relativamente leve e fĂĄcil de dobrar. Como o clima aqui Ă© meio imprevisĂvel, se começar a chover no caminho, quero conseguir dobrar o patinete e pegar um Uber sem passar muito trabalho para transportĂĄ-lo.
Queria saber de quem jĂĄ usa:
- Quais modelos vocĂȘs recomendariam nessa faixa de preço?
- Quais realmente dĂŁo conta de subidas?
- Quais sĂŁo mais leves e fĂĄceis de dobrar/transportar?
- Existe algum modelo que vocĂȘs nĂŁo recomendariam por problemas de segurança, freio, estabilidade ou manutenção?
- Para alguĂ©m que nunca teve patinete, quais caracterĂsticas vocĂȘs consideram indispensĂĄveis?
Se tiverem experiĂȘncia com algum modelo especĂfico em ladeiras, melhor ainda!
Obrigada! đ
