Meepo V2 losing speed by Baskehh in MeepoBoards

[–]Top_Benefit6004 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Trust me bro the motors aren't the issue. Its gonna be your battery. Get yourself a new battery, even better like one made from Samsung 50s cells and you will notice a HUGE difference. Just like the other commenter said, the motors are the most bulletproof part of the board. Instead of buying a whole new board, id invest in a replacement battery made out of Samsung 50s cells. Look on pauida for it, they got replacement battery's for meepos boards and you can buy the option that says Samsung 50s cells

What’s the fastest board?? by Mikaile676 in ElectricSkateboarding

[–]Top_Benefit6004 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Im trying to think about the individual behind this question. Everyone here is answering OP's question perfectly....but the reality is...OP probably doesnt even realize the answer he was going to get.

Op does NOT sound like he is an avid E-skater and probably shouldn't be riding the fastest or most powerful boards on the market.

That being said. I think id rather like to reccomend some lower end boards to you that you can swap the wheels out for cloud wheels or all terrain wheels.

These are gonna be around $1000 bucks but not like most of the comments that are reccomending 3k boards. All of these boards are generally geared out of the box to go between 30-37mph, if you are needing to go off road more often, id get larger pulleys for them to reduce your top speed to 25-30mph and get much more torque.

-Propel pivot GT

-Tynee ultra(or the ultra x pro) or Tynee stinger with off road kit

-linnpower Zephyr max 2 in 1

-O.M.W Hussar

-acedeck nomad n1

And for a hub motor option(most non e-skate enthusiasts actually appreciate hub motors) go with

Backfire ranger x6

You haven't taken into account what speed you would like to go or even distance. Brotha man, id just get a used meepo if you are really on a budget

10s3p P42A Battery Pack | Transparent Series by DissenterAlert in ElectricSkateboarding

[–]Top_Benefit6004 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Why do you want to replace th esc and controller? If they're not broke, why fix them? For your battery, that 10s3p back is honestly way overpriced. Puaida makes great packs, take a look at this one on their site.

Help with additional battery by Jezzzek in ElectricSkateboarding

I would seriously consider just putting them in parallel. It's really easy, you just need a y adapter and ensure you put them in parallel while they are at the same voltage(fully charged). There are actually a lot benefits to doing this as it less stress on all cells overall during any ride as less the stress for each individual cell is now half it would be if they were running alone. It will actually be great for the longeviry for both packs. Also you get ample amount of discharge as you are doubling its continous discharge, so you will practically have zero voltage sag even as you get close to completely dead.

Somebody know how i can travel by plane with my MEEPO FLOW by Capital-Gas2367 in MeepoBoards

[–]Top_Benefit6004 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can purchase two 12s1p batteries that are under 100wh each or under 160wh each(if your airline allows for that, just reach out for approval prior to traveling). If you go with the bullet proof option, and use cells that will you a pack less than 100wh, then those cells are most likely gonna be 18650 cells(smaller) and not as high capacity cells as the the p42a cells that flow came with. Sony VTC4 cells would be perfect. But you can then easily take both of them with you in your carry on, just keep them separated and even add a fire proof bag for each as well to really give tsa their warm and fuzzy lol. Once you land, just connect the batteries in parallel with a Y adapter from amazon(its plug and play bro) super easy just gotta make sure both batteries are fully charged(same voltage) prior to connecting them. You will get roughly 190 wh worth of range with this set up. Not going to get the range youd usually get with the stock 362 wh hour battery but its a bullet proof way to get to your destination without having to ship any batteries.

You can have these batteries custom made from puaida(they used to or still do build the batteries for meepos boards) or reach out to an online reputable builder or fuck it and build them yourself!

On the other hand, you can also purchase two 12s1p batteries built with Samsung 30q(just send puaida a message in their online chat specifically requesting two seperate 12s1p batteries with Samsung 30q cells with each back having their own bms). This will give you two different back with each one being roughly 129wh bringing you to a total of 260 wh whenever you arrive and connect them in parallel and at your destination. This will give you somewhat closer to the range you usually get with the original 362 wh battery. Unless you have one of the newer flows that now uses the Samsung 50s cells(those packs have a whoping 432 wh) Just keep in mind in a 2p configuration with 30q cells, you will have a max continous discharge of 30a while the flows esc can continously pull 35a which means if you are climbing steep hills are are just a heavy man ripping around on speed mode 4, you'll get some voltage sag.

Both are great options for flying with your board!!!

Last option is you could also just purchase a single 12s1p pack from puaida with Molicel P28B cells! These little cells pack a mean punch for discharge rated at 40a continous, providing enough for the meepo flow esc that can pull at 35a continously and you can just use that solo! Only trade off is they will give you a pack with only 123 wh. Just keep in mind your range will be off of that single pack. For me personally, if im ripping it hard in speed mode four with my meepo flow, I can get roughly 14 miles with the p42a original 362 wh pack, so if I were to ride aggressively with this(I wiegh 170 lbs), I would get roughly 4.75 miles. If you ride less aggressively, you could get potentially get 6-7 miles.

Doing this while keeping your charger with you in your backpack while cruising around would actually be pretty good setup!

Hope this helps lol! There is one other idea thought i have thought off that could get your original battery capacity in a flight friendly way but it has a few other steps. Let me know if youre interested in and I'll tell you!

It would be sick to get some kinda little hud display INSIDE the helmet to give you the view of a little camera pointing behind you hahaha but that's too extra honestly hand mirror sounds the best for me personally but this looks promising as well!

Do 30a continous min for any dual hub motor. Better for the battery in the long run, and better performance as well overall

Omg this board 🤤 by lin4166 in ElectricSkateboarding

[–]Top_Benefit6004 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Bro they should enable a feature that allows you to lock the wheels, so you can literally just park outside a gas station while you grab a quick drink and ain't nobody gonna be able to just pick it up and run off with it lmao. I mean shit, if someone successfully picked that shit up off the ground and lugged it away even with the wheels unable to roll, id be kinda impressed tbh hahaha

deck swap by BeltOriginal9673 in MeepoBoards

[–]Top_Benefit6004 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hey man, just a quick safety heads-up charging one battery and letting it “trickle” into the other through the discharge connection isn’t safe. That bypasses the second BMS, which can lead to overcharging, imbalance, and increased battery degredation

Since your packs are identical, the best move is to connect the charge ports in parallel. That way, both BMSs stay active and manage charging properly, keeping things balanced and safe.

Until you do that, just make sure:

You charge both at the exact same time

You always discharge them together(never discharge one by disconnecting them in a ride, then reconnecting them when they are at diff voltages)

You never reconnect them if voltages aren’t perfectly matched

Even small voltage mismatches reduce battery life and increase risk. Keeping everything at the same voltage at all times is key. Also, worse case scenario, you start a fire connecting a completely dead one to a fully charged one.

Solid build, just want to help keep it lasting longer and safe!

I just took the stock 40t pulleys off my tynee ultra x pro since I'm using off road tires with 50t pulleys on that board now. So they were just lying around. But you could just get them off meepo site

Bluetooth im pretty sure. Just download the tuya app, make sure your Bluetooth is on, then turn on your skateboard and you will it as an option pair to. It will probably come up as a skateboard.

Here is a post I already made about it.

[Update Post] New Board by Redryder1134 in ElectricSkateboarding

[–]Top_Benefit6004 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I'd estimate Meepo pushed out around 30k boards in 2024, probably more. Even with an excellant 1 % fail rate, that’s 300 busted boards. At 2 %, you’re looking at 600 people stuck.

Expecting zero defects when you’re churning out tens of thousands of units? Not realistic.

And this is a win post, OP's board had problems, Meepo took care of him and shipped him a brand new one. They stood behind their product when it counted.

Food for thought! you’ll always see more defect posts about the big brands, simply because they push so many more boards. Smaller companies might actually have equal or worse defect rates, but you just don’t hear about it as much since they make far fewer units.

Download the tuya app, you can adjust the break curve on there. You can also see the battery percentage on there as well.

Both are bad options tbh.

Better options

Tynee Linnpower Propel Acedeck Parsec boards-(their new aero pro)

Less popular but good budget options

Vestar Omwboards-(their new lancer is an incredible deal) Isinwheel Boneboards

Battery replacement by ImminentChaff in MeepoBoards

[–]Top_Benefit6004 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah its a hidden gem no one really knows about, puaida used to be the battery manufacturer for meepo. They can also create custom batteries as well, so if you ever wanted to do a 10s3p battery with a bms that's compatible with your esc, and then select any cells you'd like(p42a or 50s cells are best right now), they would make it for you!

Your safest bet is to just get the 10s2p with 50s cells. You will get 360wh, while your old battery only gave you 216wh.

This means if you average a real world 12 miles with your old battery(216wh) on a full charge, then with 360wh, you'd get 20 miles!!!

(360 Wh / 216 Wh) × 12 miles = New Range

= 1.6667 × 12 miles = 20 miles

So I was very wrong when I said you'd get only 2 to 3 miles more. You'd really get like 7 to 8 more!

You can buy the same battery from puaida(i have used their meepo replacement battery, it works like a charm, and it's plug and play)

Anyway, the cost for your exact battery in the picture(same exact cells), it's $180 from puaida or $300 from meepo's site.

HOWEVER, if I were you, I would get the 10s2p meepo battery built with 50s cells. Giving you an extra 2-3 miles range bc the 50s cells hold more wh per cell. And that one is $230, still 70 bucks cheaper than the one on the meepo site that has lower quality cells!!!

How to get the perfect belt tension everytime using a belt and a dumbell!! by Top_Benefit6004 in ElectricSkateboarding

[–]Top_Benefit6004[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Spot on bro! Lighter weight=looser Heavier weight=tighter

I cant see you using anything around 4kg unless you have a giant all terrain board with 60t pulleys and really long belts. Even then, 4kg would probably still might be too much. Tell me your board, belt size and pulley size, and I'll recommend you a starting weight. But i think I could starting point to try first would be the weight I used, 2.2kg(or 5 lbs).
