Doing an experiment if I can bypass the kickstart of this Razor E100 and modifying the dead battery by replacing an 18v drill battery

It would help if you you talked the process throughout the video. Also,, I'm thinking the replacement batteries you can get would be the same or lesser cost than the cordless drill battery unless you had a used one on hand already. Very good idea of removing the kick start...it's a pain.

[@cesar8359]

Thanks for watching and for giving advice my friend, yes I have a used drill battery which I tried to experiment on this old scooter.

[@PowerScissor]

Well the OEM batteries are lead based and so heavy. Tool batteries with an equivalent capacity will be way faster to charge, and provide a much better riding experience, and you don't degrade them when running a full 100% cycle like lead batteries. Way better performance in cold weather. Lithium tool batteries run all my kids scooters, and they work way better than lead. Plus, you can charge a battery while riding and then just swap them.

[@8bitsamurai6]

Dope work but don't understand why so many people don't use proper strippers. There 20 for a good pair or 10 or below for cheap. Alot easier for cutting a stripping wire.

[@cesar8359]

Thanks for watching

[@MEATHOOKMANOR]

because strippers arent neccessary to the job. I've used scissors or a razor knife for years. cheap and effective.

[@TheHarlemShow01]

Really wish you showed us how to do this mod was thinking about trying lipo batteries but drill one should be good to

[@matthewcowart6713]

Can u please tell us which wires from the throttle that u used because the video is hard to tell the exact difference. I need to know which wires are positive and negative from the throttle

[@cesar8359]

well I just tried to connect one of the 4 wires of the throttle and it worked, maybe I got lucky to choose one of the wires. thanks for watching.

[@PowerScissor]

You have to listen to the music. All the information on bypassing the kickstart speed requirement is in the song.

[@thegunshowshow]

I do this with Power Wheels, works great makes drift vehicles - I'm 240 lbs lol.

That's awesome, thanks for watching

Working on o revolting the same scooter using a 48v 13ah ebike battery. I'm starting off with a converter down to stock 24v. I want to make sure the components work well before running @ 36v. Waiting for a replacement stock controller to show up. Good to learn that stock controller will handle 36v when the time comes. I would have thought you'd see more than 14 mph @ 36v. Not sure how it compares to stock 24v

[@cesar8359]

good idea and thanks for watching Bob.

[@bobb9392]

@@cesar8359 Guess the results will tell if it was a good idea, but thx. Did you see much motor heat @ 36v? Not sure what the max current is on the stock controller. I'm currently running an E200 controller: 24V Control Module For Razor E200,E300, E300S,E325 V1-10/12, HB2430-TYD6-FS-ROHS. Had to order a 6 wire throttle, which also reports battery level. Works on the bench OK, just need to order a cradle for the silverfish battery, prolly to mount on the stem, then ready to test the speed, and range before I see overheating motor given the 20a output @ 24v. Guess I won't see more than 12 MPH, but should get there quick. Have yet to find a step down to 36v, 20a converter, technically, I should run it with a matching 36v throttle and 36v controller..but I may gamble running 36v into this 24v setup

[@bobb9392]

Quick note on using the larger e200 controller. I had to reverse the motor wires as it ran backwards otherwise

[@cesar8359]

@@bobb9392 That's a lot of electrical engineering work, good luck to your project Bob.

Hello, I have two scooters like yours with dead batteries. I love your video and it motivates me to modify ours. first what is the name of your connectors to connect the wires? have you thought of a method to charge the battery without opening the case every time? your video is super clear but do you have a small diagram on the wires to connect? I have about forty drill batteries and I was wondering if I could use the bms of a 20v and do a 12v with it...I don't know if you understand me...keep up the good work and sorry for my english....i am better in french. patrick

[@cesar8359]

Thanks for watching, my connectors are Compact Splicing Connectors. Haven't thought about charging connections yet as I was just experimenting how to eliminate the kickstart. Well I don't have a wiring diagram, I just removed the motor controller unit and connect the battery to the throttle wires then from throttle wires to the brake wires and from the brake wires to the motor. Just simple as that.

[@frankhenry645]

Start with wire stripper add audio keep hands out of video field use better connectors label wires Otherwise very hard to watch

[@cesar8359]

Thanks for watching and for giving some advice my friend

[@mamamia-mf6yo]

does anyone know how many big of a battery the e100 motor could handle

[@cesar8359]

24v, thanks for watching

[@scottmontgomry7484]

For a brief description hes got the power going to the throttle relayed to throttle power relayed to the motor 😂 im pretty sure

[@cesar8359]

You're right, thanks for watching

[@user-cx3ds9ge2v]

That is so impressive

[@cesar8359]

Thank you and thanks for watching

[@notugly9211]

He used 2 wire cutters to strip wire. Im ded :) Is that even an e100? That's what I have, and it looks a little different.

[@Arxmao]

i dont get it can you please explain how you bypassed the kiskstart im not looking to replace the battery im just confused as to how you bypassed the kickstart

[@cesar8359]

Well first of all, this is just my own experiment. I don't condone you to do it but if you really want to do it, it's at your own risk. So, what I did was just remove the control box.

[@Arxmao]

@@cesar8359 can you possibly make a video about that also thank you for subbing

[@timkevwitch862]

This won't work the powerwire is to small of a gauge if you want to do this you need to use a relay that will allow you to use a 8 or 10 guage wire to the motor. If you don't all that will happen is destroying the throttle.

[@cesar8359]

Good advice, thanks for watching

[@sagesgamer1638]

Did this blow up or is it lasting still?

[@cesar8359]

Just what I thought, but it is still lasting.

[@matthewcowart6713]

How to know which wires are positive and negative?

[@cesar8359]

Color codes and +/- sign

[@LEONDELASIERRA1]

How do u charge the battery sir?

[@cesar8359]

I take it out and charge it to my ridgid battery charger

that was painfull

[@TheV8nissan]

Did it work?

[@cesar8359]

Yes it did, just need more voltage power

[@sr8shoota]

isnt the battery 24v, two 12v in serices, how is 18 drive the motor?

[@cesar8359]

Yes it is 24v, but I am just trying an experiment here if It would work and it did work. 18v works fine but can't do it on uphill.

[@sr8shoota]

@@cesar8359 I have four of these things and I can't stand the kick start. So if I follow your video I can get ride of this"feature" probably some kind of protection for the motor.

[@rickyfitzzz]

@@cesar8359 Would you elaborate on how you attached the Compact Splicing Connectors to the drill battery? I'm about to attempt what you did on my Currie EZip 400. I feel like I understand everything you said to do to scooter but I'm clueless on what to do to drill battery. Your video is my favorite modification video I have seen. Excited to attempt it.

[@cesar8359]

@@rickyfitzzz Thanks for watching rickyfitzzz, first of all you got to have a Drill Battery Adapter which I bought at amazon and then I bought those Compact Splicing Connectors at a different company.

[@bobsoft]

@@sr8shoota Without the kickstart feature the 100w motor would struggle with take off. The E200 and E300 models do not have the kickstart feature because they have a 200W or 250W motor that has enough torque to handle take offs

Well taht did nothing for me.
