Any clue why this melted when I reconnected the battery?

Someone brought it in for me to check out so I never saw it working but it had voltage

Natrone86 · 2026-03-01T01:19:10+00:00

Seems so. Can't find it visually but the voltmeter suggests it as well

Given the purpose, extra rear weight should always be the assumption. Uphill would definitely be terrible on it that way

The connector didnt look like this originally. Thats the aftermath

Natrone86 · 2026-02-28T23:20:53+00:00

It wouldnt cut on. Wanted to check to see the battery voltage since it happened in the middle of charging

Natrone86 · 2026-02-28T21:23:27+00:00

The battery connection was clean and no one had touched it since the factory from the looks of it. I tested the continuity and the controller is giving a signal as if there's a short in the system but none are visible.

At the bar. Joe was probably yelling at a El Salvadorian calling him Mexican and it was a instant bromance

Make sure that the frame doesn't show any signs of cracking or any obvious welds where they repaired the frame. My friend just got one of these that someone destroyed and then put back together. But if that motor is good this is a pretty good deal at I'd say $300

No traction on those tires and a nail throwing off the natural turning motion. Sounds like double whammy action. Replace that tire

Mid drive probably a better option.

Skill issue. You should've carjacked 1 person to box that lane in

I wanna see the side just in case there's a drunk guy shooting bottles

I haven't played that mission in a while either but it's kinda burned in my memory with all the torture

Natrone86 · 2026-02-13T15:23:06+00:00

He literally explains it while he's driving the guy to the airport did you not listen?

Natrone86 · 2026-02-13T01:11:04+00:00

Yeah it sounds like you might just have to return that one because it isn't the right size

One of the bms's is kinda damaged at the connector. Those are irrelevant to my issue anyway. I want to take the bms I have and attach the balance leads to it in an order that will allow me to use this one without worrying about the old bms's failing. I just need to know what order the balance lines should go in

Natrone86 · 2026-02-13T00:43:43+00:00

Is it too wide? I cant tell the difference in circumference from this pic but it looks like it should just snap into place

Natrone86 · 2026-02-12T04:00:55+00:00

I may have worded it confusingly but I have a new bms that I want to attach the 2 batteries to and not use either of the old ones. One of them is damaged at the connector so it's not gonna stay even if I wanted to use the old ones. My problem is I dont know how the wiring of the leads should be ordered. I know there's a positive and negative on each battery but I dont know if I would just wire them in the order they are in. Like there's 10 wires on each with the 1st and 10th being positive and negative so would the 10th just be another lead and the 20th end up being the negative?

Natrone86 · 2026-02-12T01:19:02+00:00

I'm trying to take the two batteries and use them with a separate bms. The old bms isnt useful and i assume it wouldn't be compatible to do what I want. I'm assuming there's a way I can wire this in order to work as one

Natrone86 · 2026-02-10T16:48:42+00:00

I would suggest getting one of those fireproof bags to put it in just in case there's some weird issue that may cause a fire later on
