I can buy the charging port cord on Amazon for hoverboards and put a xt60 connector on it. Use the regular hoverboard charger to charge Thanx

I'm putting two hoverboard batteries on an ebike. How do I charge them? I was thinking about buying the three pin universal adapter and cutting off the three pin and replace with xt60 connector.

Hoverboard batteries are 36v 5ah. Put 3 in parallel and you got something nice. They are $50 a piece on ebay.

I just over volted my 2008 trailz to 36v im hooked. I didnt even think the controller would take it. But she did. And the speed is so much faster and the experience is so much more fun. If u have a ezip trailz no matter what year find out your max voltage and use it!

Update. I had purchased some sla batteries right before i found out about lipo. So i thought i should wire them in series to make 36v and try and see if my 2008 ezip trailz would take it. Low and behold she took it. 36V and all its glory! I duct tape them bad boys to my top rack went for a spin...

I'm using a imax b6 clone from ebay with the cheap $9 power supply. That's good news to here about the storage limit. I did bring two cells today to 4.2 right befor my commute to work. Won't be doing it again

Yes i always balance charge and watch each cell voltage while charging. If one cell gets close to 4.2v i stop charging. I dont store the battery fully charged i try to bring the voltage down to 22v to prevent cell damage and extend life of battery. I think rc batteries are better than a lipo...

Wow guess you can tell im new to this thing. I googled parallel and series. I now understand. I will order another battery next payday along with a parallel battery harness and parallel balance lead for charger. Im also learning how to solder. I messed up some nice ec3 connectors by melting the...

Only problem with putting the batteries in parallel is my ezip trailz controller wont except more than 27 volts. I have a 2010 trailz. Up to 2008 u can overvolt. Im happy with peddle assist. I dont need a moped i need exercise. I will be getting one of those nano tech 25v 7s lipos and a 22.2v...

I have put a turnigy 22.2v 5000mah 25c 6s lipo turnigy battery on my ezip trailz. I charged the battery with a imax b6 clone from off ebay. And i charged the battery to 24 volts 5ah. All I can say is wow what a difference in performance over the heavy SLA that came with the bike. I searched all...
