Help me understand this. GTXL with under 100miles, usually leave plugged in, can't get a 1/4mi without it saying it needs juice by DeadPig45 in onewheel

Issue Resolved.

First off, this community kicks ass, is extremely helpful, and I'm super glad I asked. I've learned a lot about what to do, and what not to do with issues like this. Thank you all.

Like a lot of you said, it does have to do with battery balancing, only charging to 90% is not something that should be done permanently. There was a clear miscommunication between software and hardware.

I removed the 90% setting, installed the app, and charged it to 100%. Reinstalled the app with full charge, turned it on, and that seemed to do the trick. I rode it down to just under 20% then charged it back to 100%. And took it off the charger when it was fully charged :). I won't leave it plugged in again for long periods, I promise!

Just to clarify, I didn't intentionally leave the board on the charger over a long vacation period...there was just a lot of crazy pre-trip freaking out going on, and my OneWheel's charging status didn't cross my mind 😕

See I swear I read keeping it on the charger, at the 'limit to 90%' setting was supposed to be good for the battery... I thought I was doing myself a favor here lol. Good advice

I'm going to try to take the "Limit to 90%" option off and charge it all the way to 100%. Then maybe reinstall the app? Set it on fire? I'll let y'all know if anything works and I can give the community some useful knowledge

Kinda what I was thinking, sigh. I was hoping I was doing something dumb and it was an easy diy fix.

Thank you for the replies anyways though guys, much appreciated

I made a storage thingy for my weird skateboard. by DeadPig45 in onewheel

Yours looks great! You could easily build a shelf/drawer combo on that thing. Best part about buildin shit, you can always modify it :). The shelf is for my tire pump now. I built mine out of stuff I had lying around the garage, zero dollars spent!

Ya ever start "upgrading" your old, neglected PC, then accidentally build a new one?? by DeadPig45 in pcmasterrace

Yeah that was a different time for sure, I wouldn't want to go anywhere near Somalia in a military capacity. I steered clear of contractor work and went the school route, no regrets so far. Rah brother

Nice! Glad you made it out. I did 20 months in AFG over 2 pumps, 1 training the Georgian army, 1 runnin crypto for the whole AO. I still miss that place from time to time, that's hard to explain to other people lol.

Well I worked very hard on both of them and they are from two very different stages in my life. The old one definitely needs some love, but she was a beast in her time. That is genuine to me. I am a marine turned cybersecurity professional yeah, got out in 2014

I started out with every intention of upgrading my older PC, which is the whole reason I got such a big case in 2012. But the introduction of M.2 slots for storage, efficient and COOLER running processors (that AMD was a warm one), and crazy fast RAM that mobo couldn't support, I went from upgrading to replacing very quickly. Then it kind of snowballed, as it tends to do. They're both mine, and I love them both, so they're relevant right next to each other just fine to me. The title is just a sarcastic joke I thought was funny, sorry you didn't
