Electric longboard dual VESC case and separate battery case

pinshape

Summary These four cases are the 4th iteration of a series of designs for holding electric longboard components. Two Vedder's ESCs (VESCs) and four Zippy Lipo batteries are included, each separated due to the board's flexibility that requires enclosures to be as short and compact as possible to avoid stressing them. The Boosted board design was followed with wires running under the grip tape.

Simply orient the two battery halves so that the tapered end is on the platform and diagonal, allowing it to fit within the build envelope. The VESC case can be printed upside-down, minimizing supports needed. Post-Printing Sealing and fastening: Weather stripping will be applied to the board in the shape of each case. Wood screws will fasten each case down, pressing the edge of each case into the weather stripping to form a watertight seal. Each case's bottom is curved to a radius of 17.25" to match the curvature of the board. Electrical connection: A hole is drilled under each enclosure, and a channel made using a router. 10AWG wire connects the battery case to the VESC case. Power is connected via a simple shorting jumper to connectors on the outside of the battery case. Charging is done using a high-current hobby lipo charger and an externally exposed balance connector.
