I don't know from where they got it but I am very happy how they attached it to the headlight. Hey, I followed this guide, kinda and eventually I got to the point, that I have the light switch working good, but the beeper is much less loud, than on the original light and it's not beeping, when the light is on. Can you help me troubleshoot? @Al Alcatraz 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can you help me troubleshoot? @Al Alcatraz You probably connected wires wrong, I did the same, it's one positive and two negatives, the positive is shared among light and beeper, black negative to light white negative to beeper. 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There was some tiny amount of play when transitioning back and forth.. (sort of like wrongways but not nearly as bad.. almost unnoticeable). That is completely gone now. Think it was slightly loose motor bolts. These all had locktight on them and were well in place when taking apart.. I think I just tourqued them in a bit better than factory. I have 1 tiny gripe.. and 1 word of caution. Gripe.. my mudguard in front is now slight off center.. No big deal.. Its just annoying this happens.. I see this happens on sherman s as well.. Not sure if there is any way to avoid that Caution. Make sure your tubes have the valve stem that sits paralell to the wheel.. not the one that kind of sits at an angle.. I had a tube where the bent stem kind of pointed outward from the tube.. It fits fine.. Its just really really hard to get the pump on head on it. I will probably change this out next time I take this thing apart. I got the heidenau k38 (not k34) I think the k34 is not really the tire wrongway got. The K34 seems to not be offered in the 3.00x12 size (at least in the US). The k38 is a vintage scooter tire and looks like it could be pretty great. I will start to ride today and if people are interested I will give some feedback. re the motor bolts - it sounds as though they aren't a good fit for the holes they're in. That's a concern. re the mudguard - is the mudguard off center or is it the wheel? I saw a video yesterday of Jon Purcell giving a review of the sherman s. It sounds like he was able to adjust the centering of the wheel while reassembling Edited September 4, 2023 by Uras Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Iv checked all the screws are tight and secure that I can without taking it apart. Any ideas? ezgif-2-5de51e8cc1.mp4 Ok so iv had her apart and indeed the motor bolts as well as the 4 silver bolts either side were loose so iv appied some loctite and tightened all them bolts and the issue has seemingly been fixed so hope this helps anybody who may have this issue in the future 🤙👍 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Rawnei Posted September 6, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted September 6, 2023 New firmware out, adjustable volume on button presses like Sherman S.

Just went for a ride with the new firmware. I was at 125.5V at the start. Rode about a mile of slight up and down hill and saw some other EUC friends up ahead of me. I sped up to catch them but had to do a hard stop for a light, and when I did, the wheel made a loud beep and displayed "Full xx". I didn't catch the xx part. Then the display auto switched from the odometer over to voltage and stayed there. I don't normally ride with the voltage displayed and I noticed that it would swing a couple of volts when testing some hard braking. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Cyberwolf Posted September 7, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted September 7, 2023 Tomorrow will be exactly 2 months since I received my Patton. Took a week to get legs, and just hit 1k Miles today. Grass, concrete, asphalt, dirt, rocks, gravel, insane assents (and correspondingly terrifying descents), light mud, heavy thick-ass mud, rainstorms, modest jumps, high-speed carving... This thing is a pure fukin beast! 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Critzlez Posted September 7, 2023 Share Posted September 7, 2023 Ewheels said this is the parameter for alarming: 1. Hard braking at 124V+, it will alarm at once 2. Continuously downhill or slowly braking more than 3s at 124V+, it will alarm 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm a big dude, all my braking is relatively hard. this update put me in danger. i'm out in traffic with my dependable wheel now suddenly beeping at me and trying to get me off of it. over 600 miles in, pretty sure i'm not going to fry the motherboard from overvoltage. but now i'm nervous about charging to full in the future.

davewood1982 Posted September 7, 2023 Share Posted September 7, 2023 If this is happening on the latest firmware then i don't think ill be updating mine, if it's just gonna be beeping constantly at anything over 125v when braking then it's gonna be irritating as hell.

All it does is beeping though? Annoying sure but hardly see how that puts you in more danger than before or how the wheel is trying to get you off it?

jimjam.nyc Posted September 7, 2023 Share Posted September 7, 2023 Do other peoples wheels stay at 126-124 volts for that long? Mine is down to under 124 in NO TIME from full charge 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Damn, sure is annoying knowing when you're potentially damaging your batteries! I was always mystified that EUCs let you charge the cells to 100% and then ride them, literally any braking above 10mph or so results in current being forced into the batteries. Definitely not safe in the long term. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RC car racers often charge their batteries to 4.3V for a race which will give them great additional power for a lap or two but ruins the battery (for racing) within two or three races.
