Scottie888 Posted May 20, 2021 Share Posted May 20, 2021 Dang just when I proclaim that I've not heard nor seen a Mten3 on fire, I have to eat my words! I stand corrected. These battery fires are starting to be a bad habit for sure. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That Guy Posted May 21, 2021 Share Posted May 21, 2021 The Community has to deliver a very clear message to GotWay/Begode: they must provide a very good explanation of what has been wrong with their designs and what they are going to change. I understand many of us like the unrestrained raw power of Begode wheels, but maybe for our own sake, we together may agree on pausing purchases of Gotways/Begodes until we have them talking about it?... Besides, to celebrate 10 years of serial EUC production, isn't it the time for a set of minimum requirements (standard) for all wheel manufacturers?... I could imagine at least the three larger manufacturers meet and agree that basic principles of design and manufacture are met? I'd think the list would be: 1. Weather proofing - must comply with at least IP54, 2. Shock resistance - must sustain X.Xm drop without damage to battery, 3. Wiring must be thermally insulated from overheating parts, What else?....

Burn in testing and pretrip computer diagnostics. Most ALL of these qc problems would be found with simple burn in testing. Until theres liability involved, the price and time of such testing is just too much for them to bother with. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The way those batteries exploded is absolutely absurd. Thise are legit explosions not just fires. I never expected to see batteries on fire hurled 10-15 feet from the machine. Clearly if anyone finds themself in this situation we need to make sure everyone stays well clear of the area, thats just crazy 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
