Toronto's been hit with a lot of flooding. I've been through some rough weather with the MSX and it's hold up. After gaining knowledge of how low the motherboard sits my first solution was to duct tape around the edge of that casing to lower water getting in. Has anyone done any mods on waterproofing/resisting the msx? @Marty Backeshare your wisdom please

water damage How can I find a hole or leakage of Ninebot max model?
Max Neo posted a topic in e-Scooters
Hi It has been heavy rain here and my Segway ninebot Max scooter didn't work, so I opened up the bottom side which contains a battery and a controller, and found it was wet by rain. I have no idea how water got into inside of this part and can you give me any advice that I have to see or do taping for water protection? -
So the last time it rained I felt the KS-16s pedals were a little too slippery and didn't feel that secure when wet. So even though the wheel itself seemed to have enough traction when the ground was wet, my feet didn't feel that planted making me feel a bit uncomfortable riding in the rain. I bought this griptape in order to rectify this situation but it hasn't rained again since I made the switch. I have now commuted a couple days in the rain with the new griptape and I must say it is night and day. My feet feel like they are stuck to the pedals now even when wet. I think the first mod I would perform on most EUCs is a grip tape upgrade. This is the manufacturer's website: http://viciousgrip.com/ If you guys have any questions let me know

When we ride in rain, the choices are either clothing, an impractical canope or an umbrellla that tackles speeed. My thoughts are we should have an umbrella that is hinged on one side like a wing or a wind foil that always follows the wind. your thoughts?

So I was headed home afterwork and took a detour to grab a drink before I got home. Luckily from work to home is only a 10 min ride max. Why is that luckily? At night I ride in the road because it's not as unridable as the sidewalk (ironically) plus at around 11 at night, not many people are on the road. Well there was a car coming up behind me so I usually ride into the shoulder till they pass, but there was a fairly large puddle (it was raining still) I barely saw and ended up riding through. About a minute later, I got the tiltback warning (which I assume was me reaching top speed like always, yes I need a faster wheel, haha), began to slow down and recover cruising when the wheel performed an action like it was confused adjusting to normal riding then giving me a tiltback feeling very rapidly within 3-4 seconds before it cut off and I safely ran off it. I was devistated afterwards when I picked up my wheel to find it wasn't turning on. I had just replaced a tire after procrastininating for weeks so it felt like i was wheel less again. After walking about 10 minutes back to my house, I sat it next to a heater for a few minutes than thought to try charging it and lo and behold it powered up once I plugged it to the wall. Battery level was the same and everthing works like before. Weird experience. Thought it's worth sharing.
