<p>SeattleCommuter: Creating user page for new user.</p> <hr /> <div>Hello! My name is Casey Lloyd, I am 45 years old and live in Providence RI. I have a 30 year skating and snowboarding background with a few years surfing and about 10 more on an Indo Board. I just got my board at the end of December 2018 and one month later have about 50 miles on it and have gone 17.8 MPH. I also have a One Wheel enthusiast Instagram page https://www.instagram.com/onewheelonelove I absolutely love this thing and don't ever see myself going back to regular skateboarding and long boarding. I cant wait until I have over 1000 miles and love it more and more every day!</div>

<p>SeattleCommuter: Creating user page for new user.</p> <hr /> <div>I’ve been riding a OneWheel since they first started shipping and I would be considered somewhat fanatical about it because I don’t just love it because it’s the most fun on dry land you can have. I love it because of how it makes you feel and the beauty and grace of quietly gliding through space. There’s something very special about riding a OneWheel that you have to experience - and I offer my OneWheel to anyone who is willing to experience it!<br /> I live in Canada and have waterproofed and tractioned my ride to handle most snowy conditions because the winter is too long to be away. I’m working on ways to keep my battery warm in -30 degrees Celsius conditions. <br /> Wakeboarding was my passion when it first got started and of course snowboarding, so I guess the OneWheel is the perfect extension of those loves, but it was new to have my feet free to move (I never skateboarded or surfed) and I like it :).<br /> My greatest frustration when I started riding the OW was the lack of information and sharing of what we learned in a place that was easy to find and search. So this Wiki is just perfect. I’ve ridden, torn down, built up, fixed, replaced, broken, fixed, made better, etc., etc., my OW so much that I think I have Credentials of Experience and a love to share everything I have done and learned with everyone.<br /> Thank you for creating this Wiki and I hope to contribute to it as I have benefitted so very much!</div>

<p>SeattleCommuter: Creating user page for new user.</p> <hr /> <div>What I think makes me unique from people I meet, as well as my passions, interest and desires. Well, I guess the best place to start off is in my passion and interest in living a healthy life style, in order to have the highest quality of life possible for myself and to share with my future wife. In the process, I stumbled upon Crossfit defined as fitness as a sport. I was drawn to its unique and vast test of physical challenges. In a more complete test of a defined definition of true fitness. I quickly realized how my training for myself and clients was extremely lacking. This intrigued me into diving deeper into study, on subjects of, bio mechanics of the human body, mobility and lack of, flexibility, core strength and mid line stabilization. I have become a disciple of Kelly Starett ( a supple leopard), in search of truth. While studying the rudiment element of gymnastics, olympic weightlifting and mid distance endurance athletes. As well I have adopted the Paleo approach to my eating lifestyle. All this has spurred my interest, in natural healing of the human body. I believe, "All human beings should be able to perform basic maintenance on themselves. It is a right and a responsibility. <br /> <br /> So, I am on a personal journey of learning as much as I can on how to heal the body naturally and share that with others. I have been born and blessed as a healer and servant mentality. Therefore I have dedicated my life to searching for the truth in health and fitness, which is all good. If it is true and good, it is of God. In the bible it says my people are destroyed for lack of knowledge. Well 72 million Americans are obese and 70% of all deaths are caused by chronic disease. Both which can are largely preventable through healthier life style & proper preventative care.<br /> <br /> So, my interest/ goals are, calisthenics, bodyweight exercise, gymnastics, chiropractic school, massage therapy, and becoming a yogi. To enrich my life, through educating myself and passing it on to others.</div>

<p>SeattleCommuter: Creating user page for new user.</p> <hr /> <div>I got a Onewheel in June, 2017 and it changed me life! I lost weight, got stronger and more coordinated, and made a lot of friends. I have really enjoyed learning more about the board and the mods on the Facebook groups. I have been a big admirer of the wiki since the beginning. I often point people who want information about flying to the Wiki Air Travel page. A common question asked is "Any riders around [their home town]". I would like to contribute to the Wiki to flesh out the information about local riding groups. I love my local groups and would like to make it easier for people to find or found their own local groups. The Wiki is a uniquely powerful place to consolidate this information. Especially since Facebook has such poor search. I look forward to contributing. Thanks.</div>

<p>SeattleCommuter: Creating user page for new user.</p> <hr /> <div>I’ve been riding onewheel since the start. I met Kyle at CES when it was only a prototype. It inspired me to start the lastmile club - an online community that tested and assessed personal electric vehicles. After a few years and hundreds of reviews I retired the site and the only vehicle that lasted was the onewheel. I was the first onewheel distributor outside of Future Motion, based in LA. I no longer own a car, so ride every day as a commuter and often for fun.</div>

A solar charge controller boosts the output of the battery to the 58V 3.5A required by the Onewheel. One battery provides one charge, and the Onewheel wall charger is not necessary. A separate AC charger is provided to recharge the portable battery. The controller is attached to a mount which slides on to the battery case, making it easy to switch between multiple batteries. The total weight of the controller and one battery is 4lbs. <br /> <br /> The battery itself is not included in the kit, but can be purchased separately.

The solar charge controller is typically used to charge a battery via a solar panel. However in this case, your portable battery takes place of the solar panel and your Onewheel is the battery you’re charging.<br /> <br /> See photo from @timvp below:<br /> [[File:charger_setup.png]]<br /> <br /> Make sure you protect your battery with something soft in case you wipeout while riding. I suggest packing foam.<br /> <br /> <br /> === Step 1: choose a battery and charger ===<br /> <br /> {| class="wikitable"<br /> ! Battery options<br /> ! Specs<br /> ! Pros<br /> !

Your settings should look something like the photo below.<br /> <br /> [[File:controller_config.png]]<br /> <br /> The critical settings are the 58V and 3.5A. Set the first line (where it says 32.5V) to the minimum voltage of your battery. 32V is generally a safe setting for a 36V-rated battery.<br /> <br /> Remember! The battery pack should be on the solar panel label and OW on the battery label on the solar charge controller.<br /> <br /> The manual can be found [http://www.mhinstek.com/pdf/User's%20manual%20of%20MPT-7210A.pdf here].<br /> <br /> === Step 4: solder the wires to the XLR plug ===<br /> The Onewheel’s XLR plug requires a different wiring than the off-the-shelf XLR plugs. Unfortunately, that means you have to do some soldering.<br /> <br /> Below is the correct configuration. Notice the positive wire is connected to *both* pins 2 and 3 of the XLR plug. If you want to verify this yourself, you can easily open the Onewheel charger’s XLR plug.<br /> <br /> [[File:xlr_solder.png]]<br /> <br /> <br /> === Step 5: hook it all up! ===<br /> Portable battery → male XT60 pigtail → solar charge converter → female XT60 pigtail → male XT60 pigtail → soldered XLR plug → (wait until voltage reaches 58V before plugging in!) Onewheel<br /> <br /> Sometimes the OW does not go into its charge mode automatically. Simply press the power button in this case.<br /> <br /> When you’re done charging, I suggest turning off the solar charge converter first before unplugging anything. Then disconnect the battery. Then unplug from Onewheel.<br /> <br /> Charging Onewheel to 100% is safe. You’ll see the amps ramp down on the solar charge converter display as you enter “trickle charge” mode. But you’ll want to disconnect soon or it’ll just slowly drain your battery.</div>
