    Skatey 600 — Replacing The Batteries To LiPo

    hello, new here, just purchased the Skatey 600 the other day, and i am quite impressed for this board i bought for 450 Euros. Problem is, it is quite heavy at around 25KG due to the use of a brushed motor and 3 12V 10Mah Lead Acid batteries. I really love it but it's quite bulky at this...
