Episode 2 of 2 found here : • Fastest Ninebot MAX - ...
Been running prototype versions of this mod since March of 2020. Best money you can spend on the Max. Chris is a great guy and I would recommend his gear to anyone who feels like their Max could use more grunt. Awesome upgrade.
Haven’t finished watching yet but gotta give you your flowers man. 1) your review is the reason why I bought my ninebot Max ! 2) didn’t even know this existed ! I came to ask if you find anything better than the Voro Emove. For the price, speed and mileage that one really seems so perfect ! Appreciate your channel man !!
Thanks for the flowers 💐 😘 . I actually had a friend who was new to scooters come and ride the emove and the modded Ninebot and he preferred the Ninebot. Fun fact.
@@GingerOnWheels woah, interesting !! Good to know thank you 🙏🏽🙏🏽
Just bought one! Can't wait
Gingy, thank you for all these videos for the Segway Ninebot Max G30. Mine arrived the other day and got the Gen 2. Am still exploring it and wished I had gotten a seat for it too as my legs star to cramp after riding for 15 mins.
Hey Ginger for that grommet piece you can probably use Sugru moldable glue to make a new seal around it.
Very true! Or just some flexible silicone sealant / caulking.
Does this work with other similar models? I just bought the Ninebot F40. They look to have similar builds but I wasn't sure, thanks!
So I’m confused. When you do this are you disabling the battery that comes with it? Is it running on both? For example can you ride on the 48v and then when that runs out switch over to the stock 36v for additional range?
In drains in tandem with the stock pack so they both run out around the same time. You bring up a good point though, the aux pack gas a separate charger and needs to be charged separately to full each time.
Hey ginger love the video. Tell me if I missed this but fors this also upgrade the range of the Max or is it still 40 mile range? Sending love from Ride With Anthony!
Check part 2
Is there a video anywhere that shows the 48v battery upgrade paired with the fatmax 500v motor upgrade?
hi, great video! do you have anything similar to this for the ninebot F40?
hey there enjoying your videos. that bottom plastic cabin cover / battery cover…is it the same size for a g30 as a g30lp? thanks
Yes same size decks.
Thanks brother your awesome 👍🏻🇨🇦
Appreciate you, Mario. Thanks again for tuning in :)
Hey ginger. Have you heard about any upgrade kits for the hiboy s2 pro? I'm in love with mine but I wish the battery was a bit bigger. Thank you!
I have not.... but I'd bet money that you could find another battery on Alibaba for that scooter. I opened up the deck on mine and there is a surprising amount of unused space under the deck...
@@GingerOnWheels thank you so much for the reply. I'll be looking around on there. Thanks again!
Love the vids keep posting
I have a gyrocopter flash pro max and it is very similar to the ninebot max. DO you think this 48Volt kit would be compatible with it?
Hey ginger when you put it back to 36v do you of to flash it again to go back to 48v???
You don't need to flash it to go back to 36V
Was wondering why you didn't mention possibly mounting the battery bag to the center of the handlebar stem.....? Looks like it would fit and keep that front area clear for your footing. Also if there were a problem with the bag sliding down you could purchase one of the many plastic hooks that mount to the stem and secure it that way....? Just a thought. Seems like it would be out of the way and still look good.
It will fit up front and are kits to mount it in front :)
How much Ah is the external battery?
I wonder if this mod is going to be available for the MAX G2 coming out in July 2023 for us in USA? They seem like the same scooter other than the new version has shocks now vs the older mod.
How long does it take to charge the 12.4 vol battery?
I have recently purchased the segway f30/ exactly the same as the max but less range will this work on my scooter thx
Hi Ginger, do you have any experience moding the F20A with this battery, I can’t see why not?
I don't know if the stock firmware or controller would allow for reflashing on that scooter.
I use xyio flasher or whatever you call it to try and upgrade the power on my scooter. But now it doesn't go higher than 20 km. So warning
Anyway will this battery booster override the downgrade I upload it to my scooter?
And another thing, is there a comparable at to scooter companion?
what will happen if you don't install the firmware update?
So you connected stock 36V battery with 48V upgrade kit?
i just looked at the battery upgrade and they are out of stock....ahhhhhhh.... To be able to increase from 30kmh\ to 50 km\h is so worth the price. I laugh because I bought mine and though wow this is fast enough. Saw your video and now its way to slow....The need for speed baby. I would kill to have 1 that goes 80 or 100 km\h Just not wanting to spend that much. I could buy a car or truck or daum....Good video my friend. Cheers
Sorry bro I guess I bought one of the last kits,
9:33 G30's standard battery is 36V, you put it parallel with a 48V battery with a Y-connector. Should it explode, or is there something 'nifty' in that Y-connector?
When putting batteries parallel, they should have the same voltage give or take 0.1V, right?
Its not parallel..its in series thats.why he has a connector key at the end of the video to complete the circuit
@@melardenio I’m not sure about series connection because then you’ll increase the voltage, 36v + 48v then the scooter will be running on 84v, I’m still not sure what type of connection the put in there, but I will find out really soon, my kit comes in today and I will be able to tell you guys all about it on a detailed video.
@@sonidoa.c.g3884 its a series connection of 36v and 12v so its running 48v. That small bag is not holding a 48v battery lol. 36+12 = 48v
@@sometin_else you are absolutely right, is series connection so it’s 48v total
How many days does it take for the external battery to arrive?
Any way to get the regenerative breaking to work again?
What about shipping? Im located in Denmark and cant seem to find any info on his website, regarding shipping. Is it U.S. only?
does it work for the Hiboy S2? if not can you do a video on how to do it on the hiboy s2?
Does the 48volt battery have to have a female xt60 or a male xt60 connector on its end to plug into the neck of the ninebot scooter??
Any option like this for the emove cruiser? If can double the range of that thing that'd be sweet!
Yeah. It'd be custom but it's not hard. Just need to wire another pack in parallel with a splitter. Good to go.
Hey nice video. So I have a few questions regarding the mod.
1 how does the controller negotiate the 2 voltages?
2 the USB ports, does it draw power while the scooter is not running.
3 how is the power usage prioritize? Booster pack first then internal battery?
Thanks
The two batteries are hooked together in series so the scooter controller just sees one large 48v battery instead of a small 12v and medium 36v. It uses power from them both at the same time while running. The USB ports only use power when the scooter is turned on.
@@GingerOnWheels thanks for your reply.
@@GingerOnWheels why do you have to flash the controller? Think I missed that part.
@@adventures_of_topher read the video description.
What about the 36v range extender kit how does that work cause the 48v is sold out.
Ginger do you know if segway offers a 5a charger for ninebot max
Hi! What about range? Is it better? Thanks
ginge when you put the bag on with the battery you should of pushed the bag up the bar a bit more so you can get your foot under it i done it with my aovo pro2 and you can still fold it dwn well you can on mine
Hi Ginger, thank you for the video. I recently installed the 48v. External kit...really easy ...BUT ,lol... I don't know how to download to make it work...I keep getting code 24...I'm lost ! lol... can you help me with this?
I'm afraid everything I know about how to install these things is in the video. I'd email mymaxmods if you have more questions about it.
Hey ginger, what bms do you think they have used? it looks like a 4s x 6p from how square looking it is
Its a 12v pack, so definitely 4s. Specs for capacity are on the mymaxmods site
@@GingerOnWheels i couldnt find jack i was asking everyone but no reply as if they didnt want me making my own battery etc which is fair enough
@@kevmatt8450 ? Its a website. I don't know what you mean by 'everyone'...
@@GingerOnWheels by jack i mean jack shit (aussie term)
it means i found less than nothing
does this work on the light profile version too ?
Can you Use it on Author brands as well?
Hey ginger I don’t have android, so I can’t get the xiaoflasher app. Is there another way it can be done with iPhone ?
Will that upgrade kit also work for E45?
Hey ginger is there an app to download for iPhone? I have the file I have everything installed but now my scooter is useless because I can’t update the firmware.
Cool stuff. There are 2 zip files on the site. One day internal and one says external firmware ??
This is the external kit. (Battery lives outside the scooter deck)
I'm wondering if you removed internal charger the 12 v battery would fit
No, didn't look like enough room to do it safely.
Hey do they make one for the hiboy pro I want to upgrade it to a 72 V
Hey ginger I installed the max pack and my scooter won’t turn on I olso put the firmware still doesn’t want to turn kn
You must be in Seattle?? How would you do it with an iPhone?
When your charging external and internal battery do you have to disconnnect the series connection? or does it not matter?
You don't have to disconnect them. You do charge them separately though.
Hi do you do this as a pure service I don’t trust myself to do this and if so where are you based thank you in advance
Ok, I asked about the Firmware update for my new G30. I want to remove the kick to start. How can I go about this?
Does this kit work on the ninebotmax g30lp ?
my update always fails i have g30lp it goes 32kmwith the speedboost on with SHUT (i want my g30lp to go to 40km) im in canada so US region basically so you cant flash firmware in 2024 anymore?
Do your battery drain fast or is it just me?
Can I do this with the es4 battery ?
Would something like this work with the F30 & F40?
Can you increase this ninebot max to a 60 volt battery or thats too much for this scooters wattage to take in?
Chris over at mymaxmods.com built a 72v one that I rode at 40+mph . He'd be the guy to talk to.
Will this work on non branded maxs aka A3 max the scooter has same battery same looks 350 watt motor
Hey Ginger just finished installing the 48v external battery, and I’m getting an error 24 code any suggestions? Thank you!
Thats an error for incorrect system voltage. Make sure you properly flashed the correct firmware.
@@GingerOnWheels Just one more thing, what is the correct firmware please and thank you
Can i du dis on g2 max,and if the 48v battery goes out in ride,does the other stop woorking and hau do you no hau much yuce is left?tnx
I wonder if this can work together with the 48v upgrade from Nordbot that replace the stock battery?🤔
nordbot cells are really bad - if anything you should replace that nordbot before it explodes lol
Nordbot is a scam
I could use some help! I just received my MaxMod kit but it doesn't have a stick with the firmware. Any ideas would be much appreciated
Contact Chris @ mymaxmods
The link to their downloads wasn't available until sometime yesterday. I'm going for a test run today. Thanks again for your help and keep those videos coming!
cooles video
With this 48 volt battery how much more distance can this scooter cover?
Answered in the next video. Check part 2
Can this damage the scooter besides the water proofing
Does the speed app work for the Highboy S2
So, how do we modify the ninebot max if it is past the stock 1.7.13 firmware?
where I can buy 48 volt kit? current link is dead already
I think the best part about this mod is how easy it is to switch back to the original firmware. Part of owning a Ninebot is the update ability and support. But, it’s also lacking in a lot of areas. This kit seems to hit a lot of points well 👍
Agreed. You can even revert back to the original 36v system using that usb stick thing I showed towards the end of the video. But switching firmware is really straightforward and easy once you get the .zip file for Xiaoflasher.
Is there any app in the apple store to do the hacking part?
Does this also work for the g30lp?
Can you mod this scooter out with bigger tires, and more range, top speed. I want to do group rides with this and go to the gym, grocery store. Do you know where I can get this scooter st a discount.
I'd honestly just buy a better scooter then
@@ExabyteAU i dont even have 1
What if you don’t have a droid device to be able to download the correct app. I have apple and I’m not able to figure out what app I should download?
Idk. Email mymaxmods and ask
Battery characteristics that you put extra please
Hi Ginger is there any way your can send the zip file link?
Thanks
Can you provide the battery specifications?
Ask the owner at mymaxmods.com
I've used a 12v 7ah battery and 12v 14ah and now am running a 12v 17ah battery all AGM batteries. I'm 260lbs and with my current tune ive hit 28.583mph!
Where i can buy all that parts ?
Hello sir, i downloaded the external firmware, i'm having an issue with xiaoflasher because there's no zip file when i open zip. Please help
if i have a clone version of this, can i still do all these mods?
I don't think so because the firmware would be different but I can't say for certain. Only one way to find out
i belive thats the kit from chris isaacson? he is a very nice guy i almost also got the upgrade before i got hit but i like my emove cruiser more but sweet video
Yes, sir! Chris is a great guy, very helpful and knowledgeable. There is no doubt though that the Emove is a bit more fun than the upgraded max. They go about the same speed, but the Emove gets insane range and has quite a few more features.
Hi Ginger , how do I get the firmware? 🙂🙏🏾
Is there an answer to this question?
whats the dimensions of the 21ah 48v gold battery?>
]
Can you fold it without taking the bag off?
Yes.
yeah when that controller hits high temp those xt60 will melt causing a short and inevitably a fire
Hey Ginger I'm currently trying to install the pack. But I've run into a problem my scooter after installing the firmware and connecting the cords I'm no longer getting a reading for the battery percentage on my scooter. I've tried contacting the seller but am yet to receive a response so I was wondering if maybe you had any ideas as to why this may be. Thanks
I have the same problem Noel, have you found a solution to this ?
you probably have the series cable installed in the wrong way
@@mcb00m sorry for the late reply I still haven’t found the solution. Have you?
@@sometin_else Ive tried every way of connecting the wires and nothing works.
It was the cables wrong way around for me..
Hey ginger I’ve followed all steps and my scooter auto shuts off at 24 mph n now it doesn’t turn on anymore. I’ve installed the 48v internal firmware.
You probably burnt your scooter or connectors.
Where you get the Battery
I wonder what happens when you leave out in the sun or hot day
LOL
You should tape those XT60 connectors together, they can come loose because of vibrations and cause serious fires (3D printing community has a lot of experience witht these connectors loosening and catching fire due to high resistance)
Good tip!
Electric tape ?
@@allinonethegreat No, video tape !!
The site is down for The upgrade kit?
Maintenance, it's back now.
I clicked the link to buy it, but it said it was faulty. …Where can I get this kit, please?
Mymaxmods.com
My scooter battery is 48v 10ah 480w. Can i connect an external 48v 20ah 200-1000w battery to the main battery with this method? Like parallel
Yup. Parallel additions usually aren't a problem. When you wire them in series and increase the voltage then things can get messy.
@@GingerOnWheels ya i just have main 48v but it is 10ah. I bought extra 48v 20ah Viset battery for long range. I hope it will not explode😂
@ Farid please provide an update when completed.. I have a Macwheel Max 48v.. Looking to upgrade my "ah" as well...
@@anro1689a okay I'll
How did you get the cord through the stem?
I'm going to have a 36V 15AH auxiliary battery. Is there no need to change the firmwareway setting?
Yes, I believe so. I'd make a post on the nine ninebot max mods facebook page and ask. People there know more than I.
@@GingerOnWheels Thank you. Do I charge it separately? Or do you charge two batteries together?
@@user-vo6tn1yv1m I charge mine together.
You need to charge both to the same voltage ⚡(parrallel connection) before connecting them :) once they are connected you want to charge them both together from one to ensure the voltage stays the same. If you charge them separately, you will need to make sure the voltage is within 1v of each other before connecting them back together :)
@@critter425 very very thk
Hi can you give me the custom firmware . Or you can tell me where to download it. Thanks
Scooterhacking.org
Or email Chris at MyMaxMods for one. Mymaxmods.com
Hey! I just got this battery but when plugging it in to charge it (it says to do so before installation) there is no indicator that it’s charging. Am I doing something wrong?
There is a little led light on the charger thats red while charging and turns green once charged.
@@GingerOnWheels thanks I noticed that :)!
Does it not work if you have an iPhone ?
Will it work for xaomi m365 pro
I have seen someone made for Xiaomi pro. I think this one designed for Ninebot max.
