Creating an Overpowered Battery Pack and Off-road tires for an electric longboard! (Experiment)

In this video I will try to create off-road tires as well as an overpowered battery pack for my electric longboard. For the tires I will be using TPU filament and 3D printing to create them and for the battery pack I will be using LiFePo4 100Ah cells. Let's find out whether both ideas will work out

Dont worry, if that battery pack would have worked better, you would soon have found out that standing on a longboard with a 18kg backpack on your back is nothing you want to do for 80km without breaks to recharge anyway.
As you now have to print new tires every 5km anyway, the old battery pack with its reach of 7km will do perfectly fine; -)
But of course still an interesting experiment, sometimes things that dont make too much sence are even more fun.

I think the reason was because of battery's weight. But anyway u should have increased the voltage or find a circuit that can do both boosting thing and breaking thing. I'm not happy seeing u fail in every episode of hacked bruh: ( good luck next time: ), and my another recommendation is use a small trolley for the battery pack so that the board can handle only ur weight.

just an idea, why not make a combo system you have all the parts, use the old battery as your main source to give you the higher voltage, regen etc, then you can use the backpack battery and boost converter to recharge the smaller battery

GreatScott! The world needs a 22S BMS for YinLong 44Ah batteries for 48 volt inverters! These batteries last 30, 000 cycles and would eliminate the need for lead acid batteries, or dangerous lithium batteries if we had one. Please help!

Use a second voltage convertor and a rectifier, so when the motors brake the return current is redirected by the rectifier to the second voltage convertor which brings the voltage back down to 12v and then on to battery.

I am disappointed Scott
You are promoting literal marketing scheme
They use different capacity batteries, different charge/discharge rates, different packaging, making lipo batteries look like ticking time bombs

You could improve the tires further by trying a 3d infill pattern. Square infill resists deformation along its inner walls, causing the softness of the tires to be inconsistent at angles perpendicular to the pattern wall.

GreatScott! One more option would be to rewind the motor with higher gauge wire to better handle you low voltage, high current driving. It's actually not that hard to do and could be a good video. Look it up!

Couldn't you just change the motor for a different KV rating, or is this impossible as the motors are embedded into the wheel hubs? Maybe another side project but rewiring the motors would be interesting

2: 05 It comes with everything you need Well. of course! Altium is the industry standard PCB design software, with a price of US 325 per month. Needles to say 95% of the designs can be done with Kicad.
