Meepo V3 1000 MILE Review (is it reliable?)

[@jaries6925]

I got my meepo v3 today and they included the 100 mm wheels on the board for free as they were exclaiming their apologies for the shipping delay. I really appreciate that. They also fixed the gap in between the board and the plastic casing which is helpful lots. The board has a new design that i had only seen on the meepo nls which is also awesome too. Btw, the remote also vibrates when you turn it on which reminds me everytime of how much bang for the buck i achieved when puchasing this product!😄

Awesome, glad they fixed all the issues!

Had mine for a year now and it’s still the shit. Never fixed “the gap” and always ran over puddles n shit, never had a problem. The charging port had gotten wet and I thought it was toast. Nope still working. The only thing that has broken was my remote but that gave me the opportunity to get the new control which is freaking awesome! Im finally thinking about getting 100mm wheels. This board was the best investment ever. Blows “high quality” boards out of the water!

[@goonigoogoo5868]

meepo price explained...I live in the EU. I purchased the v3. at 429 free shipping as advertised...there is then ,at check out, a 19 euro fee for import or export tax...then when I got my board it was held up at Zoll ( customs ). I paid an extra 80 euro at customs. this brings the total to 528 euro...now. this is just for the budget battery, for the performance battery. you will pay an extra 200 . bringing it up to 728....now..other higher priced boards are at , around this price...so you get what you pay for...I suggest the battery upgrade form the budget battery. because you will for sure want to upgrade it later . so it is only a budget board if you are happy with lower range and get lucky and not pay customs import in your country when it arrives. also, shipping takes about a month.

[@sagesends]

I don't pay customs. And if I wanted ER, I would just get NLS pro, which blows other $700 boards out of the water. The V3 is just a last mile, cheap but fast eskate

Nice video. I've got the Meepo mini ER, and I'm at around 200 miles so far. Its pretty much the same story for me: The board is awesome, but those 90 mm PU sleeves are just trash. Mine started to get messed up just after a week of riding. I wouldn't be too mad about it if I could just order the 100 mm replacements, but they are constantly out of stock. I'm trying to be patient because I understand that in a post-covid world supply times can be longer, but this is ridiculous. Oh well, happy boarding!

[@yuutoshifune837]

@@waterlove2155 don't know if your still curious but its gonna be a hard find for that and yes meepo is kinda the way but that's only because hub motors are the only ones with real free spin (besides Direct drive which is in the middle between belts and hubs)for a downhill board buy it's hard to just throw a answer at that question what about the bio boards do you want to have to hit the throttle all the time with belts or cruise with hubs giving up comfort and wheels sizes/gearing but gaining about 15% batterylife just by using anything besides a 2000w motor

What suggestions do you have to keep the battery intact? How often do you charge it? Do you charge after every ride (even if it still has some juice)? Or do you wait to charge it once it’s dead?

[@sagesends]

Better to charge from semi full battery than to completely drain batter then charge it. Low voltage does damage to cells over time. I rarely drain the battery fully unless I'm doing a long trip

[@semirdzhyan]

I got my v3 in September 2019 and it still has the gap.

[@sagesends]

Seems people are getting mixed results. Some have gap, some dont

[@MrCoolio1037]

Why not just silicone around the gap? I know it’s not optimal but for the price and a little bit of time it’s bulletproof

[@sagesends]

The gap as been fixed, and there is also a fix on my channel for the older models with the gap that is reversable and less messy than silicone.

[@cheefussmith9380]

Reliable or not it’s too bad they can’t get their shit together with the 100mm sleeves. They sell out in a matter of hours, and of course the email alert comes out at 3am EST. If you can’t reliably get the parts you need I think it’s best to buy elsewhere.

No difference - I have the same setup on my V3. If anything, it might keep the extra bit of carving agility from the 90 fronts with the stability of the 100 backs

in order to keep the motor wheels in shape. . you should ride in forward and reverse mode as well...the motor wheels have a rubber that wears very fast. ( due to back foot steering and carving). if the wheels are different. this is not really possible without problems

The backfire doesn't get 13 the wowgo3 does though. The wowgo3 is the budget king. But I do agree at this exact price this is definitely the best board

Wowgo 3 is a very good board, as is Ownboard. But for $430 meepo V3 cannot be beat, especially considering better performance (worse battery life and less flexy deck though)

backfire has 450w motors. Meepo has 540w motors. on paper meepo will be faster uphill. In practice, I have no idea. I dont have access to a g3. It's twice as expensive as v3

[@thenotoriousnightmare24]

have you ever felt a little crack when you are riding on the board. I was just riding and felt a little crack in the deck. you can’t tell if there is a crack but should i get a new deck

[@sagesends]

check the bottom of the deck and the edges to see if there's anything big. most likely you're fine

[@thenotoriousnightmare24]

@@sagesends don’t see anything. i was just jumping up and down on it and heard something little when it happened

[@eacalways]

I just ordered my V3 Is it possible if u use lipo batteries? I have 2 4s 7400mah 90c lying around and it’s still new.

[@sagesends]

as long as the system is 36v you're good

[@reecemesser]

Why didn't you not get the ER battery?

[@sagesends]

Cause it's $200 more. For that price I would just get NLS pro. Only $70 more, with same battery, buy has bigger wheels and nicer deck. Also comes with much more accessories

[@reecemesser]

@@sagesends Fair enough bro. Do you have a review on that board? I'm looking for a secondary one for a friend to ride with me and I want it to be under $800.

[@sagesends]

I don't but there are plenty out there. It is now better than before too as they have put the V3 esc in the NLS pro

[@spyne.98]

Cad check out r/electricskateboarding and ask there. The nls pro is good, you can also look at wowgo, evolve and backfire

[@geekgaming9938]

How long does the battery last until you have to charge it?

[@sagesends]

I'm fairly sure I touch on it in the video. 5-7 miles these days with battery sag. got 7-9 when I first got it

[@jknowledgenet2748]

Hey anyway you could tell me exactly what I need to order for 100mm wheels. I can only find these set of 2 wheels and im confused if I biggy the 100mm wheels do I also gotta buy the 100mm wheel sleeves? Which would make it like 150$ to change the wheels. Ant help would be nice as of right now I just realized that I only ordered 2 wheels

[@sagesends]

the 100mm sleeves are $38. The front 100mm wheels are $25. I only got the sleeves, and left the 90mm wheels on the front. I have no idea where you're getting $150 from. If you want to replace the entire hub motors, then yes. But i don't see why you would want to do that.

[@jknowledgenet2748]

@@sagesends ya I'm just confused, and it really don't help any in their webpage. I ordered a 100mm wheel or wheel sleeve. I guess I'll know when they get here. Until then I just decided not to order anything else. It's my first board so it's all new to me. And actually going over what you said I might of made the right purchase. I was thinking I had to buy 2 sets of wheel sleeves and 2 sets of wheels. Thank you for your reply

[@sagesends]

@@jknowledgenet2748 nah, sleeve set comes with both. Wheels are mostly aesthetic

[@jknowledgenet2748]

@@sagesends ok great. I'll figure it out once ive seen there board, as of right now ive only seen electric boards on videos or ads. So I really dont know the first thing about them.

[@prestoncusick7237]

you said that your meepo took 2 and a half weeks and i was wondering at which point of that time did it say it shipped and how long did it take from when it said it shipped

[@sagesends]

I never got a shipping notification or even a tracking number. It kinda just showed up

[@danli9884]

when are you going to do a buildkitboard and revel kit review? revel kit is sub 500 at one point I think but it has direct drive and you can put abec 11 superflys on a much smaller deck. which makes it more handy and usable especially in the city where you have to make tight corner .... (that is y replaced my meepo v3 ) also the waterproof ability and thermal test meepo vs blinks2

[@sagesends]

I'd be down but really don't have such moneu

[@Grant4x]

how long did it take for you to get through those 1000 miles???

[@sagesends]

like 5 months idk

[@crazywertal]

Have you had any problems with your hub wheels I have a meep V3 ER And it only has 700 miles on it and I'm gone through 3 hub wheels that lock up on me. Have you had this problem Before

[@sagesends]

No, but if you keep replacing the hubs and not the whole motor the issue might be an wonkey motor that has a flawed mount

[@thenotoriousnightmare24]

how many more miles do u think ur board will have until it breaks

[@sagesends]

at 1900 now, so far so good

[@mikekroll1050]

Please do a race video nls pro vs v3! Thanks

[@sagesends]

Nah

[@ajoshi1008]

Just ordered my v3 2 weeks ago but the 100mm hub sleeves are sold out. Should I just get the 100mm front wheels

[@sagesends]

no they don't make a big difference

[@ajoshi1008]

Sage Moore ok cool, also wondering how it does on inclines. Great video btw 👍🏼

[@tylerbrown5020]

is it water proof, im thinking about buying one

[@sagesends]

no, water resistant

[@brandonsigmund2253]

What do you do when you here clicking and is it bad to keep riding ?

[@sagesends]

I think that's pretty normal, just the magnet very slightly hitting the hubs during bumps or sharp turns. Mine have clicked a little since about 500 miles, they seem to be ok still, no loss in power.

[@brandonsigmund2253]

Sage Moore thank you very much brotha , so there’s nothing to worry about at all ? And your a good vlogger bro keep it up, you have the charisma to be a big KZbinr

[@sagesends]

yeah should be ok, nines been clicking forever. even meepo says it's harmless. usually comes from hitting a big bump or crack, which bends PU a little, allowing some parts of the magnetic sleeve to touch the coil windings inside. doesn't seem to affect power

[@thenotoriousnightmare24]

do you only have to 100mm wheels in the back

[@sagesends]

yee

[@chr1skurtz944]

Does it truly take 30-35 days to ship?

[@sagesends]

apparently, I got mine in 20 but that was months ago

[@brycewogomon243]

Mike Sudol fast shipping or standard?

[@AustinParker4]

Are the new meepo city wheels compatible with v3 or pro??

[@sagesends]

No, they use an entirely different truck design and run a different ESC I believe

[@prestoncusick7237]

Wait sage, do you only put 100 mm polys on the back

[@sagesends]

yah 90mm works fine and I didn't wanna buy the 100mm

The v3 has the roll to start feature. But is there any way to turn the board off without turning it upside down?

[@sagesends]

It automatically turns off after 10 minutes

[@benatkins7382]

Sage Moore does it lose any battery if you don’t turn it off but aren’t using it?

[@sagesends]

no, the circuitry uses almost zero power at idle.

[@tylerc2665]

Hey I don't know what to get I'm getting my first electric skateboard Meepo V3 and WowGo 3 my only concerns or what I'm looking for is a smooth ride for not a super experienced skater

[@sagesends]

go wowgo 3. v3 is more performance and top speed oriented. Wowgo has more flexy deck (more comfort) and lower top speed with more gradual acceleration

[@tylerc2665]

Sage Moore wow thanks so much which one held up better sorry for asking so many questions

[@brennanheath1335]

Hey, if you upgrade to 100mm on the back, do you also need the 100mm front wheels?

[@sagesends]

You don't need to, it just looks better

[@goonigoogoo5868]

there is reverse and forward. yes you need matching wheels. using both directions keeps the motor and rubber lasting longer

[@pickledthoughts9246]

Can this board ride while off? Like when the battery dies.

[@sagesends]

yeah it rolls ok but is super heavy so hill suck

[@pickledthoughts9246]

Sage Sends do you ever need to change the bearings?

[@sagesends]

so far I haven't but i probably should soon

[@sophiecoon712]

Is there any flex in the deck of this board ?

[@sagesends]

It has good flex but would be considered stiff relative to the NLS Pro or a wowgo3

[@sophiecoon712]

Sage Moore ok thankyou

[@xkrucibullx7218]

Where can I get 100 mm wheels?

[@sagesends]

they seem to be very sold out atm

I love my NLS Pro best ESK8 I've ever had

[@sagesends]

[@superhotbm]

Meepo v3 ER (100MM) is awesome! Very reliable once you seal it from water. Use non residue duck tape to seal it up. You can ride it in the rain. Gap who cares..

[@sagesends]

Im much more worried about the power button and charging system than the motors. The motors, battery, and esc are very well sealed. The power button, however, has gotten wet and started making a lot of beeping

[@superhotbm]

@@sagesends Just dry it out, then use the tape to cover the button. Put a new piece of tape over the charging port everytime you ride. It's non residue tape so no mess.

[@sagesends]

yeah it had tape over it when it did that 😂. I'm not stressing

[@JPDW3072]

How many wheels did you use during the 1000 miles ?

[@sagesends]

1, replaced PU at 930 miles. Current PU (100mm) is showing zero wear after 300 miles

[@jagodektv2380]

So u think meepo V3 > ownboard w1s or wowgo 2s?

[@sagesends]

Ownboard is a different beast since it is belt driven. I'd say equal in different ways. Belt drive has its advantages. Wowgow 2s is definitely worse, less power and speed. Wowgo 3, meepo V3, and ownboard are all fairly neck in neck. V3 has price advantage

[@jagodektv2380]

Is it worth to pay more for wowgo3? [I didn't expect that you answer me]

[@superhotbm]

I own both V3 ER and ownboard W1s Sanyo. Ownboard is used way more.

[@daveruttman6501]

I think you should just spend the extra $70 and get the NLS pro, has same motor, battery, and ESC, but bigger wheels and more flexy deck. Also comes with a stand and a case
