So the batteries can bulge in on both sides. I'm still having trouble seeing this, even in the exploded view, but it's a plausible theory.

meepmeepmayer Posted August 13, 2017 Share Posted August 13, 2017 Yep, the outermost grey thing seems to be the battery, and you can see it has a bulge towards the inside. It look asymmetric (bulge almost goes to the bottom, but not to the top. Like this: In the end, it's only 500Wh per side max, not that much space needed. The 20700 should also be slightly more space-efficient. And two layers are only 4cm thick. -- offtopic: What are the usual specs on the 20700 cells? 0% voltage = ? 100% voltage = ? Nominal voltage = ? Capacity = ??? mAh? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The ACM 1600, V5F+, V8 and KS 16S had no problem going up a 20% grade yesterday. The ACM did struggle with the 30% grade. 20° = 36% , 25° = 46% edit: sorry just saw @Mono's post Edited August 13, 2017 by Dancer Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tom Fagerland Posted August 13, 2017 Share Posted August 13, 2017 FORTY-SIX percent? Is that even possible on anything wheeled? I mean, how the hell do you get grip? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mean, how the hell do you get grip? A lateral acceleration of more than 1 g = 1 kg m / s^2 in a sports car is easily possible (F1 cars can do more than 4 g). That means, at 1 g, the force vector has an angle of 45º to the surface retaining grip and control without (much) sliding. Grip-wise, this 45º is the same situation as going a 100% incline sideways.

I believe I stated 20% and 30 % grades. Yes discussing grades and percentages can be confusing. I greatly appreciate your comparative table. Regarding the 'Home- Made Sign you are referring to, that was the Michigan Techical Resource Park's proving grounds sign. http://www.mitrp.com/ This is a highly reputable multi-million dollar facility that routinely tests both civilian and military vehicles. Both the 20% and 30% hill grades are extremely precise! Edited August 13, 2017 by Rehab1 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think the problem is my lack of knowledge of English and the ambiguity of the meaning of the word grade. I understood grade to be the degree unit (like I believe in "discussing grades and percentages can be confusing"), which makes % grade rather confusing. Now I guess that you are using grade to mean incline or slope without a unit specification. That makes perfectly sense then and I hope that now I got this figured out right.

Paddylaz Posted August 13, 2017 Share Posted August 13, 2017 (edited) This sort of wheel would never be for me personally....but I can imagine anyone who is into the msupers/monsters should be pretty happy.

The 20700 should also be slightly more space-efficient. And two layers are only 4cm thick. the photo of the green cells i looks, shows quite good how the cells are in the side compartment. 40cells each side on the z10... All numbers of watthour's that have been seen match up perfectly to 80 cells of 18650 with 3500mah-z10 or 2900 mah-z8.... For the z6 i am still searching a matching number of cells or celltype...80 cells of a chinese generic 2000mah cell fit :-) but it should be never the 20700. for your offtopic: Like every cell the 20700 is nominal 3,6/3,7 Volt with 4,2volt max...just the "mah" amount is abit higher with 4000/4250mah and cappable of 15-20 Amp... So it has slighlty more range than our used 18650...but that is eaten by more place/weight. the more capable amp rate is only an advantage for wheels that dont have more paralell setups, than such an high power cell is needed (best example I5) 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
meepmeepmayer Posted August 13, 2017 Share Posted August 13, 2017 (edited) Oopsie, confused this and the Gotway 16' thing which has 20700s I believe. 16850 18650 it is then. Then maybe (unlike in the video) the cells are transversal (like on the V8). Makes no sense but the rounded top of the battery is confusing.

The new Gotway 16" also matches the 18650 numbers....1036wh is what comes out of 80 cells 18650.... Until now only the I5 uses the 20700 (havent check for the new m10). the cell is still really expensive and afaik not available in big numbers nowadays 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
meepmeepmayer Posted August 13, 2017 Share Posted August 13, 2017 Weren't there rumors of it being called "Tesla" and therefore having those 20700s? Apparently just rumors...thing is ugly anyways so who cares Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That means more stress for the cells... But perhaps they fool everyone in selling a 1600wh version 2-3 months later, like they did with the v3?

Popular Post Jason McNeil Posted August 13, 2017 Popular Post Share Posted August 13, 2017 (edited) News from my Ninebot contact about a release date: "Hi Jason,ninebot one z will ba launched next year" When the Ninebot E was announced, it took about six months to come onto the market in volume. By 'next year', will likely not mean January 1st, but in the first few months of 2018. Great to see this bold & serious commitment to the Electric Wheel by Ninebot. Since the Segway acquisition, it looked as if product development would be constrained by the conservative design principles of previous generation Segways.

If this picture resembles the final design, it gives the impression that there are 32 cells x 2 deep = 64 cells per side. Maybe another 32 cells on the opposite side? = 96 cells x 3.6v x 2.9Ah = 1002.24Wh. 7 hours ago, jojo33 said: 8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think they took Transsiberian train to Beijing its only 100 dollars one way , and they bring to russia without lithium-ion problème like by air....
