Popular Post who_the Posted May 22, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted May 22, 2019 Internal speaker, new headlight, cutoff button in handle, 2A charging port. No trolley handle. Maybe it will be called the Monster X, about the same visual upgrades from the MSuper V3 to the MSuper X. Materials, "metal screw" sound promising. Overall, glad I waited. But it doesn't look like I'll be waiting much longer. 6 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
who_the Posted May 22, 2019 Author Share Posted May 22, 2019 Tire looks bigger, same trick as the MSX/Nikola vs. V3/Tesla. I guess this could be the "24-inch..." 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fbhb Posted May 22, 2019 Share Posted May 22, 2019 (edited) Small incremental upgrades (until we hear more details) but non the less, really looks the goods in Black! Definitely needs those Extra Large pedals Blacked out though then I'd be super stoked for this! Edited May 22, 2019 by fbhb Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Er, I don't think it's that kind of an update, looks more along the lines of Tesla > Tesla 2019, just more convenience feature upgrades. Maybe @Jason McNeil can confirm now that the cat's out of the bag on this mysterious black shell Monster. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jean eRide.ie Community Posted May 22, 2019 Share Posted May 22, 2019 20A charging? Wow, that would be very impressive. Charge for 1h, ride for 2h at 30km/h (60km). 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stephen Posted May 22, 2019 Share Posted May 22, 2019 It looks like a monster MSX and beefed up Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But it doesn't look like I'll be waiting much longer. I'm pretty sure my old Monster had metal screws But yeah, maybe they mean internally there are metal posts instead of the plastic ones that snap instantly. I was really hoping for an upgrade to the pedal hangers that would prevent the pedals from loosening up after hard riding. I don't know if the tire is bigger, but it's certainly a different tire. Frankly, the tread on this tire doesn't look as grippy as the old tire. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I interpreted that as 2A charging (says the first post) with a 20A fuse in the charge port to prevent damage from shortened pins or whatever. 20A at 84V is 1680W, that would be a massive and costly charger. Not going to happen. Have you seen how big 10A chargers are? The left black one. (And that's before we consider what it would do to the batteries.) 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OUNCESMUSIC Posted May 22, 2019 Share Posted May 22, 2019 (edited) With my new Monster, the most cumbersome adjustment is lack of kill switch. The black looks nice. Plan to wrap in the black 3m scotchlite reflective vinyl. But will enjoy the purple for now. Edited May 22, 2019 by OUNCESMUSIC 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
meepmeepmayer Posted May 22, 2019 Share Posted May 22, 2019 They should have added an attachable mudguard. Loss of purple is indeed sad. Imagine that carbon pattern but in purple 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Kens Posted May 22, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted May 22, 2019 (edited) A retractable handle that is short and solid is more preferable than a Bluetooth speakers imho...

Peter Q Posted May 22, 2019 Share Posted May 22, 2019 Planning to buy a 2400wh 84V purple Monster, but now maybe will wait for this New Black Monster...……. Anyone know when will this be out? Ewheel Jason : can you order one for me? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

About the batteries, I'm not an expert, but people seem to day fast chargers are still "a slow charge". I know people use a 5A charger on the 18L, so I guess that would be the equivalent to 15A charging if the battery ended up being about 3200wh on this model (not sure if that's happening).

Jean eRide.ie Community Posted May 22, 2019 Share Posted May 22, 2019 (edited) Tesla seems to be releasing a 40amp charger, and voltage of Tesla car batteries seems to be 375v, cost of the charger 500usd. So a 84v 20amp shouldn't cost that much when comparing. Should be around 8 times cheaper. Edit : checked it, expensive yes, 182eur on Aliexpress. https://s.click.aliexpress.com/e/caZ9bbEs Edited May 22, 2019 by Jean Dublin Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Arbolest Posted May 23, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted May 23, 2019 (edited) Honestly, I'm most interested in just getting one of these new shells to upgrade my current Monster! I don't need the new tire, I don't need the new LED side panels or the Bluetooth speakers, nonono. I just want the cutoff switch, the metal screw inserts and a tougher shell in general. That will make the Monster much easier on my mind... Edited May 23, 2019 by Arbolest I can spell, I swear... 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That will make the Monster much easier on my mind... I suspect that the difference will be enough that you can't transfer the shell. Don't know for sure of course. One potential option is to see if it'll be possible to buy this new Monster without any batteries, like the MSX. @Jason McNeil - any possibility of acquiring the new Monster without batteries?

who_the Posted May 23, 2019 Author Share Posted May 23, 2019 Thinking of jumping in on the 100V ecosystem with a Nikola and new Monster. But still wondering if 118V is around the corner. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yourtoys7 Posted May 23, 2019 Share Posted May 23, 2019 Wow, the wait seems to pay off :)) Looks like I'll be getting this one or if a good deal come by 100v Monster (I may choose that), any one wanna sell their 100v Monster @Jason McNeil any news from you, when?, price?, etc......

fbhb Posted May 23, 2019 Share Posted May 23, 2019 @Marty Backe Green has a NO Battery option of either an 84v or 100v currently listed, so I think this is where people are getting that info from: https://tinyurl.com/y2e76quk 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As posted, 100V Nikola is indeed a thing. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
