Seriously, 32 mph was a few years ago for EUCs. NO HATE. I'm glad you onewheel boys are finally hacking your boards for real power. A manufacturer shouldn't tell us how to operate our equipment or if we can repair or modify it.

[@deadbluesky]

I agree saying ''CRUSHES Electric Unicycles'' is too much in the video description, i ride my old RS19 to 60kmh (37mh) and still do 80 km (50m) range... With my Lynx this is way off this chart as i did 88kmh (55mh) and still do an even better range than the RS19.... So maybe it crushes the low end EUC but not many bought those. **Also EUC don't need down hill to get to that speed.

[@austinsmith9413]

100%. I have a 5 year old Gotway msx that will do 45mph. Some of the new wheels will do 55 or 60. I can't imagine being so sketched out to do 35 on an EUC.

[@Devinw1213]

And this is why I have a love hate relationship with onewheels I like the look of them but I have a inmotion v11 and there's nothing in me that could justify spending the money on a onewheel when it has way less range and way less speed but I still find onewheels intriguing cause the look and I got to try one and it's interesting but whenever I compare I can't make a onewheel make since to get if it was significantly cheaper than maybe. I'm thinking my next wheel going to be a v14 I was also looking at the v13

Not to mention, some get 100+ mile range at this onewheel top speed, real bike suspension and tire options if u don't like the stock, etc. With full 2 year warranty not voided by mods.

[@josephcase5435]

Honestly, was looking forward to Nicos battery description until it was blurred out. Appriciate the simplification, but let that man speak : )

[@nicoaleman]

For a 24s2p pack, you have 24 cell groups connected in series, and each of these groups consists of 2 cells connected in parallel (48 cells total). This is opposed to the GTS's 27s1p pack, which just has 27 cells connected in series (27 cells total). The number of cells connected in series determines voltage, so GTS is higher voltage than this VOW setup (113V vs 100V). However, since the VOW's pack has groups of 2 cells in parallel, this allows twice the possible current discharge rate compared to if it was 1p. For FM, their 1p pack makes the most sense, as they pretty heavily limit current anyways (likely for reliability and headroom compared to the spec'd limitations of the hardware/connectors used), so they wouldn't be able to take advantage of greater current discharge rates. However, for a VESC-based build like the VOW here, we can take full advantage of the higher discharge rate of a 2p pack, enabling much greater potential torque, especially when used with a motor that can handle much greater current such as the Superflux. The VOW's pack having many more cells total also makes for a much greater battery capacity overall, nearly double the GTS due to the actual cells used being higher capacity as well. Obviously at the trade-off of weight, though with the pack being split and some cells being in the front, it's luckily not overly tail-heavy despite the added weight.

For anyone trying to understand S and P on a battery: 4S would mean 4 batteries in series. Series batteries add up their voltage. So, 4 12V batteries in series would give you the same voltage as a 48V batter. But, the max amperage draw would stay the same. That's why you want things in parallel. If you have 4P, or 4 batteries in parallel(let's stick with 12V batteries), and each has a maximum amperage output of like 5 amps, then in 4P you would still have the equivalent of a 12V battery but it would allow you to draw up to 20 amps. So, the benefit of 2P, as he mentioned is he can draw higher amperage. Also, the fac tthat it's 27S2P means he's got 27x2 little battery cells in there. So there's 54 little battery cells in there!

[@flareneegamdev]

Yes, let’s see the range test! 🎉

[@0newheeldrives]

For those actually wondering: increasing the “S” of a battery (literally, the number of batteries linked positive to negative) increases the voltage and therefore top speed. Increasing the “P” of the battery (literally, the number of batteries hooked negative to negative, positive to positive) increases the capacity of the battery and therefore range of the wheel.

[@greenwave819]

the more P (parallel) you have the more S (serial) that you can sustain

[@nobiden3134]

It's Series and Parallel wiring.

[@lefotografion]

That's not completely true. Adding double the amount of cells in Series or parallel, will both increase range by the same. Parallels allows for more Amps/torque, series' increase volts which increase max RPM/speed. Amount of total cells give you your range

Great that you guys got this build! So imo you guys made 1 mistake. Put low-rider rails on it! My dream plan was for this year to build this board before a big event here in Hungary. Sadly i would need more time to get all the money for it so i will stay with a 20s2p XR platform but that's another story. The point is a thought about this build a lot and for this build the best rails would be the low-rider for sure. If only there would be an extended version too... oh boi... that would solve the tire rub with any tire on it. The XR build will get something like this tho, steep and deep extended and a half & half axle to lower it. Will be very stable over anything and safe to push to the board limits.
