..... Posted December 18, 2020 Share Posted December 18, 2020 (edited) fill the back of them with rtv as you screw them together. Generic plugs tend to have meager strain relief. Be thankful you didnt go neutrik or you'd never bother with another brand. Edited December 18, 2020 by ShanesPlanet Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
travsformation Posted December 19, 2020 Share Posted December 19, 2020 For dayltime running lights I'd ideally like something with an outer ring or line of white LEDs that don't flash and are just for visibility, more like on the V11, as orange can also get me into trouble here. Has anyone found anything of the sort? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lilvodka Posted December 22, 2020 Share Posted December 22, 2020 Just received mine. Do you guys notice an initial vibration when pulling away, more so than Gotway I would say? Struggling to determine what pads to use. The stock ones seem to require more upper body lean perhaps due to location. Didnt realise that pressing the power button turns the rear light off.

The red buttons are a bit cheesy though, they already have the tail light in that fashion, I hope they stop it there. Looking forward to seing the evolutions. Where do you see info on the new panel?

Espen R Posted January 9, 2021 Share Posted January 9, 2021 Anyone knows which motor-cable goes where on the motherboard? I've tried google, mailing Leaper Kim, asking Marty and of course the seller, but I haven't gotten any answers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then turn on the wheel. If anything is abnormal, just swap 2 of the wires and it will operate like normal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post DragonFZ Posted January 13, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted January 13, 2021 Good afternoon, We regret having to report that upon opening our shipment we discovered that either a Gotway RS, Nikola, or spare battery pack had started a fire inside the shipping container. Approximately 20% of the goods have been destroyed, while the remaining boxes have varying degrees of surface discoloration and some charring. The LA warehouse team is working their way through to assess the damage, which products will be suitable to ship, reboxing, etc. While the exact cause of what happened is under investigation, based on the evidence on hand it was a Gotway 100V Wheel (the battery on the MTen3 is different). Other manufacturers in this shipment, such as Inmotion, King Song, & Veteran, have more sophisticated battery BMS cell monitoring, casings, & battery manufacturing practices to minimize the likelihood of this type of event. It is a most unfortunate situation that may have been a lot worse. At a risk/statistical level, there are many tens of thousands of Electric Unicycles out in the world, with only a handful of incidents of a Wheel catching on fire. This does not diminish the fact that something caught on fire, but the numbers are there for context. If you wish to continue with your order, the plan is to have the good boxes shipped out over the next few days. We also understand if you prefer to cancel/refund the order. Please bear with us as your order is one among a couple of hundred in this shipment which we're trying to get through as quickly as possible. Thank you for your patience, eWheels Team 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All Veteran would need to do is release one or two solid lower-tier/more affordable/bit lighter models, for example similar category to the MSP/RS (so still 100v but closer to the ~$2k price-point and sub-60 lbs) in addition to their flagship Sherman--and then how long before the major distributors such as ewheels might decide Gotway just isn't worth the never-ending series of assembly/QA issues and drop them altogether? (Obviously they wouldn't have done that when Gotway was the only high-speed, 100v option.. but the existence of Veteran and success of the Sherman changes that, if only they also made a more middle 100v offering to fill the gap between the Sherman on one hand and the highest-end InMotion & King Song wheels on the other.)
