micromobility - Ebikes, scooters, longboards: Whatever floats your goat, this is micromobility
Ebikes, bicycles, scooters, skateboards, longboards, eboards, motorcycles, skates, unicycles: Whatever floats your goat, this is all things micromobility!
"Transportation using lightweight vehicles such as bicycles or scooters, especially electric ones that may be borrowed as part of a self-service rental program in which people rent vehicles for short-term use within a town or city.
micromobility is seen as a potential solution to moving people more efficiently around cities"

It's a little sad that we need to actually say this, but:
Don't be an asshole or you will be permanently banned.
Respectful debate is totally OK, criticizing a product is fine, but being verbally abusive will not be tolerated.
Focus on discussing the idea, not attacking the person.

I'm not aware of any BLDC ESCs that implement boost conversion.
Looking it up it seems such a circuit would be beefy indeed when built to handle the amperages of propulsion.
Controlling the voltage coming out of the battery is already done using pulse width modulation, but this can only reduce the voltage, not increase it.
There's little point in boosting the voltage to achieve higher top speed, as configuring a battery pack for voltage is very easy.
To the point that I'm here lamenting that PEV designs are upping the top speed even when utterly unnecessary.
I was joking, yout silly potato. The forklift battery thing was supposed to be a tipoff.
Why would there be anything wrong with a forklift battery?
A battery pack is a battery pack.
Drop an /s next time.
Forklift batteries are also ballast. They're lead-acid and weight 600lbs at the minimum. It's a comically bad idea to use one for a personal vehicle.
Thanks. I'll go ahead and file that under "obvious common knowledge" going forward. /S
I know how lithium packs work and how to program a VESC. That's all.
