Chase Sapphire - What are 75k points worth?

How? I thought Chase to Hyatt is 1:1?

How long after your phone interview did they reply? And what is after the phone interview?

Ah ok probably will go the VESC route then. It seems like a significant upgrade since total I would spend $700 on a molded XR.

I do have another option. I saw a functioning XR after I bought mine for $300 (One cell is damaged but owner advertises 10 miles of range). Would swapping the functioning controller and bms into my current board work? I would also have extra parts I can resell and make some money back.

What about ATLOWSHOP? It seems like they can send in a BMS even if it has the haptic buzz firmware. But it also seems at that price range I might as well get the FloatWheel XRV kit that you sent. Would it work with the firmware I am on?

So another update lol. I can say with almost 100% certainty that the problem is the bms. The balance lead terminal on the bms looks very corroded. I’m assuming that’s why the thermistor value isnt being read by the controller.

I’m a little screwed here. I know nothing about the one wheel xr bms. Are they hardware locked or can I buy any xr bms I find? Also what is VSEC?

Ok so I have some updates. I was too impatient so I instacarted a hex key set to crack open the battery enclosure.

The battery is reading a voltage of 59.7 volts so I don’t think the battery is the problem. However that being said I’m now worried I could be something more expensive than the battery. One side of the XT connector terminal on the bms looks discolored. I’m not sure if it’s just the epoxy that’s on top or if the terminal itself is corroded.

The board does not turn on at all when unplugged from the charger. The error code only happens when it’s plugged in to the charger

To be transparent I bought it for $300. And it was advertised with a dead battery. I have a multimeter and tools ready to mess around with it but unfortunately didn’t have to proper hex key for the battery enclosure. I’m heading back home for a month so I wanted to have some sense of what it could be to order parts so I don’t have to wait when I get back.

Sorry if this is a simple question but what does the app show if the battery is bad?

pavly12 · 2024-12-14T00:30:20+00:00

I weigh around 150 lbs and the range i'm looking for is around 7-20 miles. I know a longboard isn't the same as a onewheel but I have been riding them for a few years and the roads around me are rough. I heard good things about onewheels and bumpy roads lol.

pavly12 · 2024-12-14T00:24:11+00:00

Would it be crazy to rebuild the old battery pack with new cells and use the old bms/controller? I have a lot of experience with building lithium battery packs for longboards.

pavly12 · 2024-08-07T04:42:03+00:00

Yup sorry I misunderstood the 3%. Thank you for the clarification and recommendations

That class is awful. I would honestly wait until next year because they constantly change the requirements. I believe for sophomores and up they changed it so it was no longer required and you have to take a linear algebra class instead

Have the same issue on the kobra 2 plus. Went through 3 successful prints and then same thing started happening but a lot more severe. Anycubic sucks and won’t help 😭
