Smoother Posted November 20, 2016 Share Posted November 20, 2016 So, other than flooding the board with messages today I've been for an afternoon ride. I haven't charged my ks14c 800w 340wh since 3 rides ago, so it was showing 8 (4 of 5 really) bars. Rode for a while, nothing special. Later, with 6 bars showing, I slowed to look at something. Then I heard a skateboard behind me and remembered the kids I had just passed. Not wanting to be near kids on wheels (very unpredictable) I accelerated away hard. Next thing I know I get a violent tilt back, so violent, it literally threw me off backwards and shot off down the path about 10 feet ahead. I went down on my butt and wrists hard. ATGATT in place so no damage, or so I thought. I believe I asked for more surge amps than the batteries could deliver, because I wasn't going that fast. Soon after I turned on the app and it showed 32%, and dipped down into the 20s and turned red, when ever I pushed it a bit. Wheeled on another half hour or so and came home. It was when I was removing my left wrist guard that I realised I had an injury. Where my wrist bone lines up with my little finger it is sore. I can move it in all directions so I think I just bruised the joint. It kinda matched my, still sore, ankle from 2 weeks back. so a warning about power level indicators and huge power demands. 6 bars could be as low as 40%. And with only 340wh to draw on a huge power surge literally knocked me on my butt. Don't let this happen to you. i might have to change my Avitar AGAIN, to something like this: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
