Nice work man. Big thank you for this video, i just start me own firs battery pack and thanks to you i got it everything nicely done. Now i will do another one of 48v 13s 4p. With Bluetooth controller. THANKS !!!
Cool modes man. I have similar one but the battery is glued inside and can not see how many amp hours it is. All I know is 48V. Can I measure the AMH somehow. Im thinking about external. I know they have to be same V but not sure for the AMH.
I've seen people use a plastic riser for the bottom cover so they can add more battery into the deck of the scooter. Not sure if I can fit 50 batteries in there lol.
Real nice and good explaining ,do you have to add a second bms on the external battery pack ? Can u also use one of those external battery connectors on ali express - if so would they work wo adding a second bms
20+ miles away from home/base and crack your tires... that means I have to carry that thing back all the way. LOL. Any way to use prebuilt lawn mower batteries, like Green Works 40V or 60V?
Yes no problem at all. But make sure to full charge both batteries before connecting them in parallel. This is to make sure they are both the same voltage
Just a question. i currently own a zinc eco plus which has a 36v 250w battery.i am mainly looking for more speed because my scooter currently goes 25km.Any suggestions?
My scooter looks the same so how many volts mah and amps was your standard battery. Mine only said 7.8 amp so am I to assume that's a pack of 10 in series with 780mah battery cells?
@@HBV90can I build one you built or how much for you to build it? My scooter is a hytoy skute 36v 250 ways.I would like about 50 miles and just a little climb power
Can u do it with a vsett10+ ? Because i rly wanna add some km to my scooter but idk which battery use !! There is a guy who says EVE battery is good but idk , if u can explain which brands are good for it , I ll appreciat it , thanks .
The OEM port would charge both batteries and propably overcharge the extra battery bypassing the BMS. This should not be possible. You would have to disconnect the external battery every time you charge the scooters original battery. The way this DIY battery is just wired in in parallel is possibly dangerous for this reason.
I’m just getting into the scooter gang I want to use this for the beach and take this to the gym and spare battery and definitely wanted to get an extra battery pack and bigger tires could you put on this for off road
If I wanted to add an external battery but just buy one already made, what would you recommend I get and would the connection be similar to what you did?
Bro love your video man great help I need some advice do you have any layouts of your battery of soldering your nickel strip will greatly appreciate your help thanks
Great vid! I have a few questions. I have a xiaomi scooter that i plan on modding. 1) Do i have to use a car fuse or is it unnecessary? I dont think that there is a high chance of high current damaging the scooter so not sure if ill use one. 2) Is it recommended to solder wires, did yours heat up because if the loose connections. 3) Does the speed increase or does it stay the same. Anyways thank you so much for this video. Hope i can do the same with my scooter and double the range. Btw im using salvaged wires aswell 😅
Hello im sureby now uve sold those probs. Everything is nessesary though. Even ifyou made thebartery already. There is nothing wrong with takubg it to a electriction to once over. Batreries can geat over time. Hope this helps
@John Lone I decided to make my own fuse holder using a 20amp fuse and used another scooter battery and now I have 80 kms range. Also upgraded the xiaomi m365 pros suspension and added rgb lights to it. Never knew how fun modifying scooters was
Great work bro, you definitely souped up the pioneer!! lol, I have a alpha 1 and a journey. Alpha , rated at 12miles range but I do hit 20mph on my GPS, maybe one day I'll try and extend the range but for now I jus ride for the thrill lol , do u know of a way for the alpha to remove the 18mph capped on the lcd?
@@HBV90 yeah that's what I was afraid of it being a software based, oh wellz I guess the phone will do , have you seen those external battery pack on ali express, will those work as well?
hello I have one more question will it be ok if the cell capacity is different for example when I have 30 cells with a capacity of 2000 mah and 20 with a capacity of 1500? sorry for mine english im from czech republic
Hey mate nice video so can you charge from both charge ports or just the one and how will charge work will it charge both battery’s regardless of which charge port
@@HBV90 great video, I just have a question about connecting the 2 batterys together.. I have a 60v scoot that goes about 40 mphs so I am wondering if I get a second battery would it at more power to the motors and also would I run the risk of burning out my controller??
@@HBV90 ok sounds good. So when you say connect in parallel does this mean that I dont have to switch between batterys once connected? If it shows 67v when fully charged with current battery will it still show same voltage when second 1 connected? Its a minimotors eye 3 controller btw. Also their is 2 charge ports on my scooter already so can I charge 2 batterys through these ports or do I need new port? Sorry for all the questions.
I have this scooter it fell one time and the display screen is cracked and has a black mark. U think there’s any way to fix it or where to find a replacement or upgrade ???
@@HBV90 so my last question is. Is it possible to convert the battery pack connectors to a DC input and trick the scooter into using it for power instead of charging!? I’ve seen someone do this on another scooter. My gotrax XR PRO (only sold at Best Buy idky lol) when it has a DC cord plugged in it doesn’t power on. Only charges.
only voltage should match. If your main battery is a 10s battery you have to buy 10s supplementary battery. And more amps = more milage. Watts is only volts multiplied by amps
Do you have to charge the batteries separately or can you still use the charger that came with the scooter to charge both batteries after it’s installed? I know you want to charge both batteries separately before installing to get to the same voltage. Thanks
@@HBV90 thanks for the quick reply!!! I guess my question is does it matter how you charge it after you have both batteries connected? Say for example, I charge just the external battery but not the original hover 1 battery, would the original hover 1 battery still charge? Thanks again and thanks for the video!!!
i dont understand the whole not having a seat thing...obv i walk upto 5miles oer day but i do it 2 paas time.and to keep fit also with 30lb on my back but iff ya gonna travel why would u wanna stand
I find it harder to balance for turning when sitting on my scooter's seat, plus the fact that the seats just plain not tall enough for me to sit on comfortably
Very nice, I did something similar and got 50 miles but yours looks very nice, clean and low profile, unlike mine lol. looking forward to see more great content from you. 👍
I have around 15 x Milwaukee brand 18v lithium (4ah, 5ah) batteries , i wish there was a hack so could use these batteries. Or perhaps i should try haha
That’s it I’m making my own Tesla
Great video bro...only thing is that I wired the fuse in the bag for easy access.
This was my favorite video of all time, thank you
Super smart build dude 💪
Nice work man. Big thank you for this video, i just start me own firs battery pack and thanks to you i got it everything nicely done. Now i will do another one of 48v 13s 4p. With Bluetooth controller. THANKS !!!
@@HBV90 do you work on the ninebot g30lp
I finally got some samsung 20r's I will build this for my pioneer. Thanks for the guide!
Can u make a video on changing the deck pad? the surface on the place where you stand
Cool modes man. I have similar one but the battery is glued inside and can not see how many amp hours it is. All I know is 48V. Can I measure the AMH somehow. Im thinking about external. I know they have to be same V but not sure for the AMH.
Thanks
Good job very inspiring and I like also the speakers
Can I get an external pack and just plug it into the charge port?
Thats awesome!
Excellent video and great explanation of BMS cell balancing wiring, I feel very strong about this topic now.
Hi.can i ask what fuse you use?30 a fuse blade?
do you recommend quitting the white speed limiter cable?
Why didn't you solder the split connections???
how is it working, still?
Have u thought about a way to spread the battery across the length of the scooter? Also will this work on others with same components ?
I've seen people use a plastic riser for the bottom cover so they can add more battery into the deck of the scooter. Not sure if I can fit 50 batteries in there lol.
@@HBV90 right. The ninebot ones are perfect for this as the battery is in the steering column not the bottom so you could add there.
@@HBV90 another option be to actually attach along the steering shift for yours.
Will it charge together with the main battery? Or must it be charged separately?
@@dannydenison6253 separately
@@HBV90 thanks!
Real nice and good explaining ,do you have to add a second bms on the external battery pack ? Can u also use one of those external battery connectors on ali express - if so would they work wo adding a second bms
Yes you'll need a second bms.
If it works 👏.Yo J how much more weight does that add ?
My buddy added a 48v pack to his ninebot max. And it keeps up with my 1500 scooter.
I’m dying to know what kind of battery life you get on that cardboard iPhone?
20+ miles away from home/base and crack your tires... that means I have to carry that thing back all the way. LOL. Any way to use prebuilt lawn mower batteries, like Green Works 40V or 60V?
Liken can I make a 20aml hour and connect to my 7.8 amp hour if the volts are the same
Yes no problem at all. But make sure to full charge both batteries before connecting them in parallel. This is to make sure they are both the same voltage
Just a question.

You are a badass my friend
thats dope
The vibration will shift the battery over time it will come apart
This battery pack has been holding fine for me for 2 years now, but yes I would recommend using heat wrap to hold the battery together.
@@HBV90 I see, my design might have been shady then. Heat wrap for sure next time.
@CliftonRX7 yea and make sure the weld are strong cause if not vibration and bump will definitely break those weld loose.
@@HBV90 true, I learnt the hard way.
@@HBV90can I build one you built or how much for you to build it? My scooter is a hytoy skute 36v 250 ways.I would like about 50 miles and just a little climb power
What exactly batteries do I use
18650 are the one the scooter used
What if you added another wheel to the back? Would it be any different. Or wouldn't it be any use? Good build. What amp were the batteries?
One question how much u gonna charge me for a battery pack for my hover 1 alpha 2.0? Please let me know.
Can u do it with a vsett10+ ? Because i rly wanna add some km to my scooter but idk which battery use !! There is a guy who says EVE battery is good but idk , if u can explain which brands are good for it , I ll appreciat it , thanks .
LG and Samsung brand are both good...alot of high end scooter uses those cells....just make sure you get them from a reputable seller....
This is so cool ..I have a hover 1 edge ..is it the same process????? I wish I can pay u to do it bro🤦🏽♂️ I need this done
Out of curiosity couldn't you just put masking tape over the one to reduce risk of shorting the battery?
Yes u can.
How u charging battery both on original socket or separate
they have separate charging plug
Hey Jin, How do you charge both batteries? Does the OEM charge port charge both?
The OEM port would charge both batteries and propably overcharge the extra battery bypassing the BMS. This should not be possible. You would have to disconnect the external battery every time you charge the scooters original battery. The way this DIY battery is just wired in in parallel is possibly dangerous for this reason.
Nice work. How do I PM you if I need to purchase the external battery you made in the video ?
motor 500w or 350w?
this one is only 350
My escooter's company welded the battery cover shut. 😕 There are some screws but those are just back up screws & I accidentally stripped most of them.
I got a 10000mah 41.5v battery in my scooter what would be a good pack to buy / DIY as a external battery? It is only 16mph
Nice Vid! I also have a Hover1 Pioneer, just wondering if I am able to use 48v battery pack instead of 36v? I would not run them in parallel btw
Why did you choose 30A BMS? How did you decide on 30A BMS and not less/more, can you explain?
I’m just getting into the scooter gang I want to use this for the beach and take this to the gym and spare battery and definitely wanted to get an extra battery pack and bigger tires could you put on this for off road
Can this be applied too for NIU KQi3 Pro escooters?
as long as the battery is the same voltage as the original then it should be able to work no problem.
If I wanted to add an external battery but just buy one already made, what would you recommend I get and would the connection be similar to what you did?
how did you balance charge your external pack? the little red plug on the original battery....
Nice
This is pretty sick. I did not hear how much you spent though
i already have most of the parts needed, so i only spent less than $50
Bro love your video man great help I need some advice do you have any layouts of your battery of soldering your nickel strip will greatly appreciate your help thanks
Can i make external battery pack that have different capacity and discharge rate but same voltage? Both have bms? Reply please thanks!
*both battery pack is 36v and with bms also
