Nice work! Amazing setup! Blinkers and a horn on a eskate is a genius idea. And especially the hidden electronics. I wish I' d live in a country where eskates are legal. But here I have to try to be stealthy with my board.
I bought the same exact 12v battery pack to add lights to my electric board, after doing research I was able to find a tiny 3 inch X 1inch buck down converter that can fit inside my esc enclosure and ditched the battery pack, I used a xt60 splitter to hook up the wires and avoid voiding my warranty, then added a latching switch to turn it on/off. For the leds the vibrations destroyed mine every time and the adhesive sucked so I bought a rock led strip which were screwed on and had a hard plastic enclosure to prevent damage from impact.
Great video, I've been thinking about getting an electric skateboard for a long time. Have you thought about using some diffusers on those led strip lights?
How does the hurricane all terrain wheels do vs a 2 inch crack? Is it pretty good or are cracks still a major threat? I have a $400 e skateboard and it has rather thick wheels and still has issues
So on the govee lights, did you just take the housing off the control module so it would fit inside the board or is that new separate module? Can you show a little more detail on how you have it attached to the bottom of the board, like direction, position, if it makes a complete circle or just 2 strips, etc. Did you splice the LEDs?
Yes I took off the housing and wrapped with foam for cushioning. I didn’t splice the LEDs I just bent the strip at the corners where you would cut the light. I recently spliced the LED on my Atlas maybe I’ll make a future vid on that
Pretty awesome work! I'm thinking about putting that handle, but I just ordered the cyclone 110s wheels. Do you think it will be okay with those? Thank you!
Yes it’s suitable to any board length 2in1 and below and you can cut it to your preferred length. It’s actually really sticky but I recommend you wipe your board down with alcohol wipes and when you Apple the strip light use a hair dryer to make it sticker.
I was thinking what it would be like if the horns could play music instead🤔. Would people (drivers and pedestrians) be more cheers on the streets as you were approaching close to them?
Hey bud. Any advice on mboard tires vs trampas? (ricky everet vid had them installed btw - i saw you comment on it :)). Trampas are $95 and mboards are $60. Just curious if you think premium is worth it. I'd say they wear out as quickly as the original Meepo tires and are a little less stable. Thanks!
The Sunmate Tires are ok but I’m pretty sure they wear out quicker than the trampas. The trampa tires are well balanced and they will actually increase your top speed as well since it’s 6.5inch
@@esk8nyc ohh I figured, I knew about shred lights but always found them to be a little expensive. Before I even saw this video I had been researching coming up with a way to wire one those 18650 battery packs and a 12v mountain bike light or an off-road led light from eBay or something like that. I just haven’t found a way to get the amps and watts measurements right so everything doesn’t blow up 😂 but what do you think. Running another battery and some lights that way might give more light and the benefit of charging only the battery pack
I think a better route (cheaper, less "stuff", better waterproofing, less space taken up) would be to jettison the entire battery power and charging system (why have a tiny battery mounted inches from a HUGE battery with ample power) and just put a DC-DC buck step down converter, plugged into the XT60 battery connector with a parallel Y cable, that steps the battery voltage down to 12V, which you can use to power your 12V accessories, and tiny 12V-5V converter to further step down that 12V line to power all the USB devices. The entire thing could fit into the existing battery compartment, and be cheaper and easier to maintain as well.
I was thinking of that but the board is under warranty so don’t want to do any of that stuff. Plus it would drain my battery and give me less range. The maintenance is actually great don’t have to charge that little battery for weeks.
@@esk8nyc Adding a DC-DC buck converter won't affect your warranty. If you need to return the board for warranty service, you can just take it out. Your warranty is definitely effected by the grinding cable channels into the top cover, decreasing water resistance, and increasing the chances water damage to the electronics. LED lights and a horn will have a negligible effect on batter life. You might get a few dozen yards less range. You can see this in the miniscule draw on the tiny battery you are currently using.
@@ManifoldSky warranty isn’t going to be affected with me making little slits into the cover just so the wires could breathe alittle. Imagine if your motors stopped functioning and customer support said “oh sorry we can’t send you replacements since you have little slits on your deck”…. Water resistance isn’t an issue electronics are accessed from the top unless I rode it in the rain which I have actually and when I opened up the cover there was no water inside the enclosure thanks to the foam. LED and horns don’t have that great of an impact but now I have wired in headlights that draw a lot of energy 4000lumens. Plus I could take out the battery if I wanted to, use it as a portable charger. And a buck converter wouldn’t most likely fit and it would be a waste of time. Please don’t forget this is a production board not a DIY.
@@esk8nyc Damn props! Second day on this thing, after trying out 30mph on the first day I got wobbles now I dont wanna go over 25 hahaha. Guess i should tighten the trucks a bit more and/or work on my riding cuz I'm not that heavy (155lb) so ig the bushings are okay. Any setup tips? Rn the front king pins show like 2 threads and the back ones 4. I do have the updated version that comes with 175mm wheels
@@The_Dude_420 yeah man everyone says how the bushings are awful and to change them right away it’s all about practice you need to experienced to be able to ride DKP trucks must people don’t understand that. And for the tightening always have your rear truck tighter than the front because the power is all in the back with the motors. Make sure you tighten the two kingpins the same level either the front or back to get that nice carving. Lastly, I can’t really tell you how much to tighten them so start it off tight and if it’s too light loosen them all a quarter of a full rotation and see if you like it everyone has their personal choice of riding style 👍
Yes an electric skateboard is a great start for a new hobby and it’s really efficient for commuting and fun use. If you never skateboarded before I recommend you get a budget board, it’s a great start for a new beginning!

This is actually my first time learning about electric boards because I havent even seen one irl. The concept seems great would love to try it.
Appreciate it man!
Damn the quality of the video is great 😃👍
Awesome video, thanks. I was just looking on aliexpress for blinkers for my board and you helped out.
This was wildly helpful man thank you

😲 dude, this is just really awesome. Love the horns and the looks of the people you pass by 😁
Great video man! I just broke my Hurricane so I am wainting for replacement parts but these tires and horns I love them!

I would do a buck converter as well but I don’t have any save in there anymore
The intro goes hard lmao
Super travail ! Merci
You have horns too yo wowwwwww 🔥🔥🔥🔥
Great video , definitely getting those tires , getting 2 flats a month , had 2 flats this week , only ride on pavement and very little grass
Appreciate it bro glad I could help!
Love the video!! Good Job Daniel!
🤣 this is awesome!! I'm a install car horns on my Zealot S!
Oh it’s definitely possible if you need help dm me
That’s crazy AWSOME man 💯🔥🔥🔥
Been waiting for this
Came through with the video!🔥
Hey nice upgrade man. your board its close to mine however mine its a DIY not MEEPO. we even have the same tires. lol
Awesome Video… love the edit.. very informative… where were you wolf pond…???
That's badass dude.
hey man i had a quuestion about the trampa tires, can you use the old meepo tire hubs and inner tubes or did you have to get new ones
I used my old Meepo hubs and they worked just fine!
@@esk8nyc did you have to buy new inner tubes too?
@@corbanperkins308 nope you could either use your 6inch tubes or 7inch doesn’t matter since it’s 6.5inch 165mm
Nice job brotha, very well thought out and tastefully modified
Thank you bro appreciate it!
Great video, I've been thinking about getting an electric skateboard for a long time. Have you thought about using some diffusers on those led strip lights?
No I have not but there’s a more expensive version and it’s RGBIC called a Light Strip by the same brand
How does the hurricane all terrain wheels do vs a 2 inch crack? Is it pretty good or are cracks still a major threat? I have a $400 e skateboard and it has rather thick wheels and still has issues
Oh yeah of course lol if 90mm wheels can do it then AT for sure
I am very impressed
Thank you!

Where do you find the side leds ? It looks like Dualtron scooters leds. ⚡️⚡️⚡️
Link to all of the mods is in the video description below
Nice job
Did you change bushings? Maybe test replacing double kingpin for more stability with a normal truck
I was thinking about changing the DKP trucks to TKP but I’m still searching for options because going 35mph with DKP isn’t a great idea
Pretty awesome work! I'm thinking about putting that handle, but I just ordered the cyclone 110s wheels. Do you think it will be okay with those? Thank you!
Thank you bro and yes it should be fine 👍
love the video. Is striplight length suitable to board length. Do you need to cut a little？AND HOW sticky is it？
Yes it’s suitable to any board length 2in1 and below and you can cut it to your preferred length. It’s actually really sticky but I recommend you wipe your board down with alcohol wipes and when you Apple the strip light use a hair dryer to make it sticker.
