Vee's (@Cutiyo) latest review video has great information on the Gotway bearing issues and why they paused production for three weeks (!!!). With a (horror) video from the Begode/Gotway factory. Watch and weep (time-coded at 8:01). Warning, only for those who not easily despair

Oh God that Gotway bearing insert video!! That explains a lot. There's got to be a better way to do this! Love your videos and your "I'm not mad, just disappointed" kind of attitude when you show the flimsy trolley handles and the other unnecessary shortcomings of the Gotway wheels

While it might just be a bad charger, I agree that's it realistic to assume the battery sat too long and is now dead.

Did it ever work, or has it been like this from the beginning? Good thing you can send it back.

Thanks for your continuing information! I can't say anything. Maybe Facebook is to blame. Maybe the latest forum update did something? @John Eucistis on it.

A video about this mod!

Did you open something and maybe mix up some plugs? Do you know what these beeps mean?

Please post in English. Google Translate: "Hello friends, do you think the single wheel is preparing KINGSONG for 2021? A cushioned KS S 16 or what?"

No, sorry, I've had one twice but it is a bit thin-walled. Ok but I'm sure there's better. It's going to be "fun". Then just get the MCM5 at any rate

It's huge! Those two red dots on the top back side... are they lights, too?

Can it be ordered somewhere?

Yea, for snow and slush, get a KNOBBY tire! That's what counts. Digs in like a hot knife through butter. (No tire will save you from black ice type stuff). You could put a knobby tire on your Tesla.

You don't have to review it. Just enjoy it Seems to be a 84V MSX with some upgrades (somewhere those 2500W must come from). A great wheel, no matter the details. If the price is right and that's the kind of ride you want... As you mention fun at lower speed: smaller tires are more zippy, naturally, and your options go like this, from small to big: real 16 incher - Tesla "16 incher" - Nikola, 16X This one with a 18x2.5 tire MSX/MSP/RS with a 18x3 tire

Yea, that's the mystery here. MSP HT motor was rated 2500W I believe. MSP HS motor is just the MSX motor I believe. Rated at 2000W. - Looks to me that Gotway (I understand that these wheels are manufactured by GW for Chicway, right?) just gets rid of their leftover older parts (MSX 84V boards, 2.5 inch tires?) this way, by making Frankenstein wheels. Maybe their latest firmware, adapted to 84V instead of 100V, gives the old MSX motor 2500W rating instead of 2000W. After all, that seems to be how they come up with their arbitrary power ratings.

Do you mean a regular msuper V3, or the one with the Tesla motor? That existed too, for a very short while before the MSX arrived. Must be very rare. Careful: That new ms3 is not worth the 2000€ price. Just to state the obvious The ACM v2 is NOT the same as the ACM2 (Tesla motor ACM). V2 includes most ACMs, including all 84V ACMs. It just means 12 mosfet board which only the earliest 67V ACMs didn't have. But it still has the older 1500W motor.

That's pretty cool! Can you set it to stop charging at a given point (by switching the plug off)? E.g. "stop at 80V" or "stop at 80%"? Or can that TP Link thingie not read voltages? In addition to your "switch off after balancing" for a full charge, as I understood your first post.

You are the second guy we know of that has this problem now Do you find any setting on Facebook to re-give permission to this forum? The site admin has been informed, we're trying to figure out if it's the forum or Facebook causing this.

The topic below has been started going on from this discussion. Just so you are aware:

This isn't really a scooter site. Apart from a few specific discussions, not much scooter stuff is going on here. Maybe try https://www.reddit.com/r/ElectricScooters/ Not sure what other escooter resources there are.

I hope it's a freak charger/board failure instead of the expensive battery, even though that seems unlikely.

Not my video. Another praise video that makes some good point.

Here it is on the official Begode website: http://www.begode.com/productinfo/553504.html Begode T3.

Again, not my video, I just found it on Youtube

Not my video. But good. Also I now want a V11 really bad
