That's not running a house but you can get power out. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sooo, one feature that would be super awesome on these HUGE battery pack wheels.. would be that I could get some power out, like for back-up power generation style.. I wonder when they gonna give some adapter piece that we could drain the batterys on common use, like using the wheel as backup power. I think people would buy that model, like.. alot. Sounds like such a easy feature to add, in my head atleast. Few wires and you could power some needs for the house should power go down briefly. I wonder if any of these wheels come with that option one day.. I personally wouldn't want this on an EUC, however for anyone who does it isn't too hard to do. Wire in some direct leads from the battery pack and install a connector. Then have an external solar voltage inverter to handle to 100+v DC to 120v AC conversion. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That port is great for powering up a smartwatch (Lemfo Lem T) to use as a display for the V11. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post fbhb Posted January 6, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted January 6, 2023 (edited) I had the same thought about the OG Sherman not having a USB port, back in 2021 and so installed my own Dual USB port (USB and USB-C): Edited January 6, 2023 by fbhb 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paul A Posted January 6, 2023 Share Posted January 6, 2023 Would be great if the charger(s) for an EUC were pocket sized. Or USB charge port if feasible. Public places provide USB outlets for phone charging. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Imagine you could charge your computer/phone and then use same cable for EUC. (One can dream..) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have seen some 210W on phone chargers, that use USB-C. So.. It would be possible. Who's for USB-C Euc charging ports? I'm in. (Covers for it also would be easy to find.)

KiwiMark Posted January 7, 2023 Share Posted January 7, 2023 4 minutes ago, Paul A said: Would a couple of these work? I'll go with - No, they won't work. Theoretically 2 x 200W chargers = 400W of charging. BUT: You would also need 2 chargers that can each take 100W USB C PD input x 2 and output 100.8V charging to an EUC. So now you have 2 USB chargers each with 2 leads connecting them to a EUC charger. I guess if you could get an EUC charger that can take 4 x USB C PD inputs of 100W each, that would simplify the setup a bit. Do these EUC chargers that can take USB-C PD input exist? Without them you have a problem. Now, you could get a DC-DC converter that can take one voltage like that from the USB-C and convert that to 100.8V - this would theoretically work. You would need 4 of these though. You would also need it to communicate with the charger to ask the charger to supply the desired voltage, this would need to be done with the PD protocols. Again, this is using something that (AFAIK) does not exist. With the efficiency losses when converting to the 100.8V your EUC needs you probably would only get 300W if you could even get a working setup. With the USB-C chargers + DC-DC converters + leads, etc - are you actually saving anything in terms of size or weight compared to a 300W EUC charger? Are you getting any better reliability? You would certainly be getting a slower charge than the 100.8V 5A charger that comes with the Sherman S. I don't think that it is worth the time & effort to worry about USB-C chargers when you need to charge at 100.8V. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well that sucks about the pedals but good to hear about the rest of the wheel. Hopefully mine doesn't come in rusty but I was going to get aftermarket pedals anyways so it's not a huge deal.

I kinda wanna see if leaperkim comes up with a solution before I throw down another $300 for aftermarket pedals. If they do update the pedals I'm hoping Jason will hook up us first batch people.
