@lemur haha please turn that into an euc.

@lia i'll pass it on to the person. thanks!

[EDIT]: update -- they said:

"Thank you for that advice! So I got home and I opened it all up and everything looked great, unfortunately lol. I was hoping I would see something that was obvious but it looked pristine once I got the cover off. The good news is I got it to work… The bad news is… I don't know how. I started pushing down on things just to see if anything was loose and then all of a sudden the light comes on. A couple minutes later I was doing something and the light went off and then I pushed down again and the light came back on. so I went ahead and connected everything back together and the light stayed on and I was able to ride it but now I'm worried it's going to shut off. 😬😬😬 I can't trust it to ride it rn because I can only assume I would nosedive."

Who said one wheeled devices must have self-balancing feature?
This boy is so going viral right now.

@notsure I would like to, but 100 v vescs are limited right now, I think the Tronics x12 is about the only choice @ $450 us, too pricey at the moment.

@5paceninja Great to hear! Glad you got it sorted out.

@sirgu Haptic buzz is the ONLY msg, fills up the entire screen on my phone and won't go away so I can't check anything else.... battery charge, miles, etc. Thanks.

Note for future :

Whenever (and if ever) XR and VEXR version pops up -- please people update this topic ASAP.

Fancy glowing and LED-illuminated stuff has been made prior to this TFL's counterpart as well, ... but I really like 'Braking Effect' feature in it.

I lowered the board one notch because I wanted to try it. It feels so good, so stable. The fender doesn't fit now but I don't think I can go back. 😭

@lemur Thank you a thousand times!

@s-leon Ladybug hearts are clearly the best kind. You are truly blessed.

@sirgu I wanted a few in case I lost some and a bit of variety in case I changed my mind on a vibe. Also @cheppy44 wanted some Orange ones so I got a bunch of others too ^-^

Thanks for addition, @Lia! I had totally forgotten XR have this extra pin & black wire on main connector pinout, although I now recognised this valuable post by @Lemur from back then.
knocking my head against the wall for not using "Search" bar

@Franko & @NotSure I saw that too.
And to be fairly honest - my first thought was: Why is FM contradicting themselves on their statements??
At first Adam says: "... this will probably never happen again ... " and then in comments they reply:
@Franko said :

"... but depending on how it goes and how useful folks find it, we could certainly see a Pint program in the future."

@babyjigs 3 checks I would definitely do are:

Connect to it with the app and see what battery percentage it's currently at. Anything between 40% and 60% is likely fine but not a guarantee. If it's fully charged or empty I'd be a little concerned that it's toast.

Next check is see if you can connect it to the OWCE app and see if the cells are within 0.1-0.2 volts of each other. Anything else might indicate a bad cell.

If you're able to take it for a test spin that would be good but won't tell you much other than it at least works.

It might be worth asking when he last used it and what percentage he left it at. Being an RC enthusiast he probably left it at a good level but worth checking as I've had batteries from "enthusiasts" that left the things at full for months 💀

@bulletxtime That's balanced enough. There is a little cell degradation since they should peak at 4.2 but that's expected for an old used battery so I'd say that's good to ride! :)
