AngryJackPCB Posted March 6, 2020 Share Posted March 6, 2020 When I ordered my wheel from Ewheels I got the 84V rapid charger as well. https://www.ewheels.com/product/ewheels-84-2v-rapid-chargers/ Since I'm still new and don't put many miles on y wheel I've only charged it twice. The rapid and OEM chargers were in the box with my wheel. There was also two 10A mini blade fuses. I don't see anyplace where they would be used. Anyone ever have to use these? Is it something I should be carrying with me if I go on a trip? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EUC Custom Power-Pads Posted March 7, 2020 Share Posted March 7, 2020 The fuses are located on the control board. You must disassemble the wheel to get access to the control board. On the left side between the upper fan and the green Q. C. PASSED sticker. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Please check carefully, because 10 A fuses can't be used as they will blow on first harder acceleration, causing you to faceplant. As fuses are colour-coded, 30 A should be green, as on the photo attached by @buell47. 10 A fuse is red. Don't use red fuses. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll look for the fuse and let you know, they might have been 30A. On 2/24/2020 at 7:11 AM, quiksilver884 said: Awesome Jack! You've got a few years on me but glad you're enjoying it. It really is like crack. We got ours about the same time but you were smarter to get a faster one. I got a cheap ninebot e+ just as a toy and am now totally obsessed and am already dreaming for something with more power. Just keep at it and be safe! I've just started commuting a few miles a day just to get some more time on it since it's hard to make time otherwise. But I've had 2 pretty good falls, one when I could barely start freely and was still learning. Didn't listen to my body well and pushed my legs/feet too hard and couldn't recover into a turn and ate it with no gear on and still have a sore elbow a month later. Second time I just pushed my wheel too hard and was fortunately smart enough to wear my gear and just ended up with some sore muscles vs an actual hurt arm with road rash like last time😳. Just have fun and keep at it man, it will get more and more natural quickly Thanks for the kind words of encouragement QS! It is amazing how quickly you can learn this. I'm riding about 15 miles a day going over 26 MPH at times. I am getting more control and started carving which adds to the fun. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
