EUCandME Posted October 8, 2021 Share Posted October 8, 2021 (edited) Hey Guys I have recently been getting please get off warnings from my wheel when heading up hills. I realise this is normal but im just thinking of ways to minimize it as much as possible (I know softer acceleration is the obvious one). My thought: Does higher pedal sensitivity use more or less power than the lower settings? Edited October 8, 2021 by EUCandME Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UniVehje Posted October 8, 2021 Share Posted October 8, 2021 Short answer: No. There might be a slight difference, but it still takes the same amount of power to climb up a hill. If you weigh more than 80 kg and climb up steep hills fast, the V10F is known to do this. Basically it is a bit too conservative on the warnings and too few MOSFETs to deal with the heat. Just take it easy with the steep and long hills. The good thing is that at least it forces you to step off way before anything is broken inside, so you don't need to worry. It's just annoying if it happens all the time. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is a slight learning curve as coming from the Ninebot S2 That thing just did whatever i threw at it despite being slow/low range. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mhpr262 Posted October 9, 2021 Share Posted October 9, 2021 Keep your cellphone with the Inmotion or EUC World app ready in your hand and look at the power consumption in real time, that will allow you to stay just below the "get off" threshold. I weigh 130kg in my gear and I can climb really steep hills with my V10F as long as I go slowly enough. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
