Completed - Diy electric skateboard build

Build Montage… So i testing has been going well… done a few miles on it and testing it on different grade hills. Yestiday I decided to bomb down a gritty gravel path. And the board died. I suspect something has shaken loose. Narrowed it does to the battery that was reading 0v. After a slight tap. With an angry fist. It returned to a normal 40v. My bets on the one bms wire I extended hastily. A full visual inspection and tugging each wire should find the issue. But involves field stripping the whole top end to remove the battery’s. Once issue is found it will all be fortified… only when something fails can we make it better

Im away for a few days . I will keep you posted.
