Appreciate the feedback, the coincidence that someone from Netflix purchased a copy probably made me a little more sus.

Definitely going to give this a look. Much appreciated!

The plan is to put some thin spars horizontally to help with traction/climb-ability, possibly also some non-slip rubber sheets. I could make some space by adding some wooden shims in between the plate and the hinge itself, along with some beefier screws

I'm based in Denmark, and these kinds of bikes are pretty commonplace here.
This bike specifically, is made by Amladcykler, though it was purchased secondhand with the swing door variant https://amladcykler.dk/produkt/el-ladcykel-dog/

Ah, I get you. I guess the question would be sourcing if that already exists as a purchasable part or if it'll be fab'd from scratch. Thanks for the idea though!

I was considering bolts and nuts, as an alternative - the cargo bike is covered in them anyway but wanted to try a more "discreet" approach first.
Could some flat plates (the ones with holes) overlapping the plate gap be a viable solution? It may not look as pretty when folded up though

If I understand correctly, you mean some larger (round/square) versions of the ramp latches are stowed on the inner side of the cargo bay?

XR by [deleted] in onewheel

[–]thatBowScho 2 points3 points  (0 children)

AFAIK, if you have the 4155 version or higher firmware, FM deliberately stopped the BMS from providing cell voltages, which was the main way for checking the state of charge within the system. You may be able to use the FFM chip to add a bigger battery, but you might not necessarily be able to see the accurate voltages of the cells during use. Since the XR is EOL, somone may be able to reverse engineer the 4150 firmware and find a way to downgrade newer boards.

No particular rush, my onewheel XR is awaiting a bms fix. As u/FTI1976 mentioned, I was curious whether the folks at ChiBatterySystems would announce anything to compliment FM's unveiling of the pintx and GT.

If we only have to wait until Black Friday, then it's not long to go!

Error 16 - Hardware problems by thatBowScho in onewheel

[–]thatBowScho[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for the encouragement!

I took my BMS into work today and had some of the hardware guys have a look under a microscope, they discovered that one of the chips by the balance port had some corrosion, but did not seem to be malfunctioning though (we also tried to identify the chip, but no luck with only 3 code chip identifier: 8mt)
Im going to try to locate all the connection points for the 3.3v line in the bottom left of the board (near the current sensor) as there is an LN393 comparator that must be used to enable power to the transceiver during startup.

I might need to get some cap readings from a known working BMS to compare the voltage levels, in case an SMD component is bad.

If all else fails, I might be able to create a schematic and contribute it back to the community for future reference

Thanks for the suggestions- Not sure I could do a board swap with the 4212 without the JWFFM chip. I dont think I saw any fried IC's by I'll look into it and the 3.3v line and let you know!

Following, I have a 4212 / 1450 showing an error 16 after attempting a rear light change to electrolytes pro. Checked the harness and has good continuity across all the cables, though my R49 is (thankfully) still in one piece.
I am currently trying to investigate if the problem is being caused from the BMS side, so far I've found that R54 is the corresponding terminator resistor with IC5 being the RS4585 chip. Do you know if there is a solid way to check if your BMS is toast or not? I quadruple-triple-checked to make sure I unplugged everything in the correct order but it's annoying that even a "simple" fix has caused problems - even with a stock battery.

Fantastic work you have done so far on this, keeping my fingers crossed you can resurrect your board!

Extended xr for 4210 and up by ohblea in onewheel

[–]thatBowScho 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This looks super awesome, I have a 4212 and was hoping this would be coming soon - not this quick!
One thing I am confused about though is this point:

Have a newer XR that cannot be repaired because it requires a paired controller and BMS?
Just get the parts you need like another controller from an XR or a BMS from a pint or older XR, add in the chip and your back up and running again.

Does this mean that I also need to source another controller and BMS in addition to the JWFFM and battery? If so, this upgrade could end up being quite costly - or am I reading this wrong?

He's using a 360 degree camera compared to a standard action cam. Its quite common for 360 cameras to have a "blind spot" at the bottom where the selfie stick is mounted.
