Want a XXR battery? Me too. The best way to support our research is to join our community and be part of the conversation. XXR availability would be announced in our community first. Our electric future belongs to everyone, so your participation is everything.

Think you're the perfect beta tester?

This guy saved my boosted board. Highly recommend his work.
Much love! How is it running, still by the way?
Good to see Boosted still getting DIY research!
More to come!
@@xrgeneralhospital I'm especially eager to see how you tackle the remote replacement/substitute situation!
This makes me SO FREAKING HAPPY!! Thank you for all that you guys do!
Hey brother, thanks for helping all of us out In The past. AND IT ROCKED.
I have a problem.
One dead controller, one lost controller. 🤷♂️🥴…
eBay v2 market value $250z
I have cheap opportunity =
Two v2 minis with charger and remotes. 550$🤩
100 miles away.
Would you say, get the two minis, primarily for the remotes. (And all the other good stuff.)
Battery’s, control units, chargers, bearings, wheels gears and belts. AND REMOTES.
Could I ADD -one or both- mini battery stacks to a BB stealth.
Every thought about trying to geek out with the guys that actually made it in the first place for some source code and balancing mathematics?
What if you just made a chip the had variable source code.
Put a Nokia phone interface. And computing power.
Get the 2 Minis. I bought 4 of them just for spare parts for my Stealth haha
3D print a center battery housing.
For me. 🤘🤘🤘I mean it….
Or I have to go to that Australian shit.
Like one between your legs? Interesting, tell me more?
LOVE THIS! Great job. 🙌🙌🙌
Much love! It feels good to breathe new life into our boards :)
that not a pcb, the real name is (BMS) battery management system
I dunno that definitely looks a printed circuit board to me 🤷
Lime should hire you
For the right terms, maybe. It's hard to tell with a company like Lime, they have their own interests which I understand. They can't afford to deal with the Boosted community right now since they are still not profitable, if I recall correctly. Maybe, I'm open to whatever, so if you're reading this Lime, hit me up.
I second this
@@xrgeneralhospital Can you give some insight on how boosted isn't profitable?
The manafacture cost to what they sell the boards for have to be very high like apple.
Are you aware that Boosted is no longer a company as of March 2020?
@@xrgeneralhospital Yeah I am but what I’m saying is before they went bust, why weren’t they profitable
Fixed my board as well!
I have signed up on your website for a XXR battery i 3D print multiple things and I think a 3-D printed carbon fibre nylon case would benefit this battery as far as heat dissipation goes metal heat sink plates would dissipate it as well
Great question! We are still investigating heat generation. We don’t suspect that there should be a dramatic increase, but results will remain to be seen until testing is done. What printer do you have? I have a Prusa i3 MK3S!
@@xrgeneralhospital artillery sidewinder and ender 3 texted your cell let’s face time soon as I got about 8 boosted batteries in stock right now one blinks red and on just doesn’t turn on
Can you shoot me another text? I don’t seem to see it in my inbox. (734) 837-8704
Wonder if I can expand my battery capacity on my mini x
That's exactly what this project is for! The battery would be bigger, but I've been thinking about how it could be possible to create a Mini X-compatible XXR.
what would be the price for this monster battery?
Will pay now to be the tester
Thanks! Have you signed up for the beta yet? The price is currently not known due to current geopolitical conditions.

Nothing stronger than family!
Great job 👏
Much love!
So when will these XXR batteries be available to buy?
No definitive launch date yet. I'll be making a follow-up video shortly about the beta testing program! Current plan is to spend the next few months sending around 10 batteries to beta testers, get feedback, and have something commercially available in early summer 2022.
@@xrgeneralhospital Can I put my hand up to be a beta tester? 5k miles on my V2, could give the XXR a good workout.
Heck yeah! Here’s the beta signup page: www.xrgeneralhospital.com/xxrbeta
Awesome work man!
Right back at ya! Maybe an XXR needs to be added to those skis?
@@xrgeneralhospital yeah but I was thinking the Loooooongboard would get more use. The skis scare me lol. Is it exactly double the range?
The prototype only gets around 70% improvement, but the prototype had a voltage delta much higher than the stock XR, which caused the voltage cutoff at around 3.4v instead of 3.0v there was a lot of energy left over, so a delta much smaller would have yielded closer to 100% more range.
@@xrgeneralhospital that's amazing!
@@CodyHovland maybe we should put it on the loooooooooooooooongboard then :)
