S5 E11 We Are Back with A New Heart
It has been about 2.5 to 3 months since I've made a video with the scooter. I had issues with the battery and one day it just flatlined. This is why I stress so much to get the warranty with anything that's electronic. You never know when something just might crap out on you.
I still highly recommend this company and scooter because their customer service was TOP NOTCH and they took really good care of me. With the warranty, they had me run a few tests and without any hassle, they okayed the warranty. There wasn't any fight back or anything. Just a few tests with a few pictures, and we are back up any running.
Yes, it was a few months... who cares.... I didn't have to pay the $1,000 to $1...

S5 E10 My First Solo Overnighter Tent Camping at LBJ National Grasslands
Просмотров 79Месяц назад
This trip is honestly my very first overnighter since my accident. From what I can remember from before my accident, I never really had an overnighter before. But if it counts from what I can remember, there was a night when I was going to meet my dad and his friend Chris out at his land where we all had built A-frame cabins. Well, when I rolled up it was already night and pitch black, and it w...

Glad you finally got it back on the road, but that battery supply and support is crap mate. Any way, have some fun this week.
What's up Ariel, glad to hear back from you! Thank you, I'm glad to be back out there. I see lots of riding in my future to catch up... lol.
You are now officially Dr. Weldonator, since you successfully completed a scooter heart transplant. Glad you're back! 👍 3:42 I like the switch to "sh... shtuff" 😆
Lol... unfortunately, yes, I did. Thank you, I am too!! Lol... yeah, I caught that one. I laughed at that during editing
Sweet, glad you are back on the road again, and I look forward to riding with you again.
Thank you Chucky!!!
I think I saw you at Jack in the Box a few hours ago! I was on my scoot, enjoying the wonderful weather. Glad to see you uploading again.
Hey! What's up... you sure did if you were on the Moped that rolled up in the parking lot. Thank you, I hope you enjoy it too. It is so nice out there right now. Thank you, and I'm really glad to be back.
@ LOL that was me. About to "patrol" the neighborhood again, before it gets dark.
Heck yeah!!!! Someone has to do it. I always have my head on a swivel, so I'm pretty attentive to my surroundings. That's pretty cool that was you. Hope to see you around and be safe
Welcome back, Weldonator.
Thank you Mike!!!
Back in action!!!!
Yes sir, I am!!!
Привет из России! Ты молодец
Thank you
Go get'em Roger.
He is getting so much better and stronger. Wait until the new video from today comes out
Is it better to get the off road tires or street tires ?
It all depends on what you're riding. For me, I'm pretty much 100% on pavement, so I'd say street. If you are a mix, I'd go off road. That way it'll be way more durable to sticks and sharp rocks. That's my opinion and I hope it helps
Do you you need to register your scooter or ever got pulled over?
That's one thing that is really cool about having a scooter. You don't need a license, or do you need to register it. I have passed a lot of cops, sheriffs, unmarked cars, and pretty much every type of law enforcement there is. All I can say is, as long as you respect the law and them... you will be all good.
@@theweldonator wow okay cool I try it then 😂
Who knew you'd find an intense insect war during your solo camp?! 😉 Really cool drone video too! 👍 Any updates on your battery replacement?
@cf6979 lol, i know right! That would happen to me. Can't wait for the next one. As far as the battery goes.... should be any time soon. I reached out to them the other day for an update and we are all good
You need to come back to floresville/San Antonio and visit cousin!
I'll see when I am able to make it back down
What are those things at 5:14? 🤔
@cf6979 UFO's the aliens ride in... I honestly have no clue. I saw them from a ways away, and I was hoping I had captured them
How long did you stay on the beach? It looks like fun and Baby Groot enjoyed it too. Did you get a chance to ride those tasty waves? 😉
@cf6979 what's up, dude!!!! Haven't seen or heard from you in years! I hope everything is all good. For the beach, it was just an overnighter. Lol, no, I didn't, i felt like Nemo.... lol
Blessings
Thank you
That's awesome
@@Imonlyalienafterall thank you
Looking good. Great job Weldonator.
@mikE_6-28 Thank you!!
What was it? Hip replacement maybe? R3hab is tough, took me 2 years to r3cover from surgery.
He had a stroke a few years back and lost mobility and speech when it happened.
Just bought one. Anyone have any advice on upgrades for the scooter?
Awesome!!! As far as upgrades... there isn't much you need to do to this bad boy. Other than different tires, that's about it.
Awesome trip Weldonator. Very large boats are always cool to watch.
Thank you!!! It was cool how that one snuck up on us
In Rio Grande Valley, I don't see much people walking, or even on electric scooters... Many people are just using cars. Does Texas allow scooters on sidewalks or roads?
Hey, thank you for stopping by. Yes, Texas allows scooters on roads and sidewalks.
nice sharing my friend, enjoy your trip, and be safe
Thank you so much! Next, we go to Port Aransas to ride the ferry and then sleep over on the north part of Padre Island beach. Baby Groot had fun playing in the ocean for the first time. Hope you come back for the rest.
That's a nice trip Weldonator! I hope to see some of your dance moves on the next video.🕺
Thank you, CF! Lol, idk, you may see me out there shaking a 🦿
Frankly, mid-October is pathetic. This is a globally sold scooter from major scooter brand, and model! I don't know how many Kaabo's have been sold but it's a LOT. But they claim they can't get even a new battery pack for it in 6 to 8 weeks?! Within the whole USA?! ... my friend you need a completely different scooter brand and a totally different seller. A Wolf King GT and they can't even get a battery for it? Absolutely ridiculous. Just don't buy any more Kaabo scooters or anything from VoroMotors - they've got to be taking the piss here!
Hey man, sorry you feel that way. They have been a really good company and scooter to me, so I really can't complain too much. Especially with this being the only issue in 2,000 miles in almost 2 years.
@@theweldonator It's fine that you don't mind a 6 to 8 week wait, but it's a 2 year old model and this model's scooter 'fleet' is needing major replacements at about now, and this global reseller of the model is not supporting a stock of parts on hand for it. That tells me all I need to know about them. May as well be ordering direct off Kaabo and cut out this middle man. All the best with it though.
They seem to be very responsive for your warranty items, which is great. You should be back up and running before Halloween.👍
@@cf6979 I'm telling you.... this was honestly the BEST customer service I have had in a VERY long time. They were on it on both items. I don't mind waiting since it has been warrantied. That's the hardest part. Now I can relax, chill, and wait patiently
Thanks for the update. Sorry to hear on the scooter trouble..
Thank you, @noobz! It's all good, I'm glad it's all under warranty. I'll be back on the scooter soon.... I can feel it
I just bought a king gt and now on my 1rst attempt to run it full speed, gave me an error code of 05 and wont go past 37mph...im following this in hopes of finding a solution.
@victorslpk1 I would definitely get ahold of Voro or where you bought it. That way, they have a record of it being brought to their attention of the issue. My battery had to be warrantied. It worked for about a week after Zen had helped me with it
@theweldonator I bought it second hand from a guy who rode it less than 50 miles. It's ridiculous. This thing is brand new.
Okay, try this.... unhook everything from the battery for about 15 minutes. While it's unplugged from the controller, use your volt meter to ohm the battery to see what your voltage is. When you go to connect it back, the plugs that go from the battery to the controller should spark, showing the battery is good. That's what Zen from VoroMotors instructed me to do.
What Kevin???
Lol, the male version of a Karen.
You drove through my neighbourhood lol
When going to Mckinney, I take that route
I saw you in twin creeks Allen u think
Lol, you probably did
Dude, that "thump" sound/vibration you were getting is coming from the motor caused by the controller. The controller "may" run but has tendency to take out the motor (is it rear motor?) which explains for noticeable power drop when you ride. It is intermittent problem and eventually the motor will completely fail. Looks like Voromotor assumed it's your battery failure and sending you a replacement when in fact the controller is the issue and your motor will have to get replaced. Replacing the controller will only bandaid the problem because the same trouble will come back. I don't think the manufacturer will be able to come up with a controller that will be proven reliable anytime soon. Inmotion RS scooters have similar issue with the controllers. Should've gotten the late model Dualtron Ultra 2 (or Upgrade version) as their controllers have been tested proven to not taking out the motors..
Yo, thank you for letting me know about that. It's all good if it comes to that because I purchased the 3 - or 4-year extended warranty, and that just started. I also just started a claim on my TFT because the bracket is stripped and won't really stay up. It works and all, just one of the screws stripped out. God forbid it comes to what you're talking about when I get my battery back. But I will say, I am more at ease since I have the warranty and know how to use it. Are you serious? Is the Inmotion having the same issue? Thank you for the heads up. I'll definitely be paying attention to that when I'm back up and running.
Good news that your warranty is paying off!!
Lol, yeah, me too! They've gone up 500 dollars
Best of luck getting the new battery installed when it comes in. You're going to have to tell me something. What brand of coffee is that you're drinking? I've tried just about everything, but I'm always looking for something different.😉
Thank you, thank you, good sir. I get it from HEB. I get Brazilian Hazelnut and Texas Pecan. Those two are the best, in my opinion. Separate, of course. Oh, and they sell it in beans, I grind it myself.
Hey Weldonator. Great job not allowing the “Kevin” get to you. Unfortunately they walk amongst us… Good ride. Take care.
Thank you, Mike! Lol, yes, they do
Wolf King GT remains an awesome scooter even after all the new hyper-scooters that have been released since. Keep ignoring sour jerks mate, they're not your problem, if no one's injured "the Law" is not even going to care.
You are so right! I'm going to keep riding and not let them get under my skin. Thank you for stopping by and watching the video and checking out the channel, much appreciated.
Hey, nice ride, thank you.
Thank you so much for stopping by and checking out the channel and the video, I really appreciate it.
Nice keeping it positive! That person sounds like a hypocrite and a negative person so it's good you kept going.😎It seemed like more than the usual amount of people on the trails today.
Yeah, I didn't want to escalate the situation 🤔
how much is it
$3,145 for the Kaabo Wolf King GT Pro, scooter alone, no extended warranty or seat. Don't forget, the code works for ANY EMOVE or Kaabo scooters. So you're not just locked down to just the one I ride. If you have any other questions, let me know.
Nice video, Weldonator! Since you plugged those holes referenced at 2:27 and now have less wind resistance, your Wolf King might just be a little faster.🚀🛴
Lol, I don't know. I will have to see
Hey Weldonator. Congrats on the 1st “buy” as an affiliate. Take care.
Thank you, Mike!!!! I was pretty excited to see that when I opened it up
The video sounds great! I noticed there is no wolf whistle anymore. Looks like you did the hot glue?
Thank you!! Yeah, I slowed down since we last talked, and I found the spots. I filled them with clear silicone. Seriously, thank you for helping me with that.... good lookin out
Glad you got it fixed bro! It's always so frustrating in the beginning when something's broken and you don't know what's wrong. But it feels so good when you fix it and it works again like new. Take care brother
Thank you!!! Bro, you know me, I don't know how to give up. I was able to get some good directions from something other than a computer. Otherwise... I don't know. I would have been too nervous to go as far as I did. When I got it.... I perked up and feel way more confident now. Good talking to you, brother.
Hey Weldonator! I just checked the dictionary. Geocaching is a Latin word that means "invisible treasure" (bad joke) 😉Well I hope some of the others will be easier to find and you don't get poison ivy while searching.😲You're becoming an expert working on your Wolf King!
Lol, you're too much! Yeah, I won't be doing that anymore. I'm just not down with where some of the hiding spots are. I will not be going in people's yards or property. There were a few spots like that, and I know better than to do that in Texas... 😆
Great video, my Guy. Thanks for the tech help this week. 👍
@rc1237279 all good bro! Glad I was able to help.
Can you adjust the height of your handlebars too? Just wondering if they seem pretty low once you're standing.🤔
Yes, you can. I have moved them all the way back up. They are at my waist and feel perfect. You can put an extender on, but I feel that would be way too much.

I’m in mckinney. Got a Segway GT2 last week and looking for routes. Where is that path at the beginning if you don’t mind?
Hey, what's up!!! I hope you're enjoying your new ride and of course I don't mind. It is called the Trail at the Woods. It's connected to Connemara Meadow Nature Preserve. Off Rollins Dr and Alma Dr
@@theweldonatorthere is also a trail in the woods at star creek
There is?
Nice man, I see you going by Thunderbird too!
Lol, you know I'll be causing by all the old hangouts. 🤣 I still have my speed quads, and I actually laced them up the other day. Bro, let me tell you how strange a skate feels on a leg you can't feel. I felt and looked like a baby deer learning to walk.... 😆
@@theweldonator Man I bet it feels weird. I need to get back out there to old Thunderbird. Would be good to get the old crew together for Joe.
Hey Weldon. I live in Plano. I be looking for someone to ride with. I have a Segway GT2
What's up!!! Hopefully, we can ride together sometime soon. There's a group of guys I ride with on the weekends sometimes. I'll have to let you know when we ride
