One-Piece Kits vs Split Kits

We provide two configurations of the Case of the electric skateboard, the following is the difference between the one-piece kit and the split retrofit kit:

The all-in-one kit installs the battery and ESC controller in one case.
1. The all in one design can be adapted to more types of decks, and various types of decks such as fish boards, land surfboards, and long boards can be installed.
2. The redundant shell and connecting wire structure are eliminated, and the weight is lighter.
3. It saves the trouble of opening the battery connection line groove on the deck, making the skateboard modification easier.

Electric_skateboards_One-Piece_Kits

The split kit installs the battery and the ESC controller in a dedicated case, forming a typical electric skateboard configuration.
1. Double case design, the center of gravity of the skateboard is more balanced, and the driving stability is better.
2. The battery case is specialized, a higher capacity battery pack can be selected.
3. Split design, separate the battery from the ESC controller, better heat dissipation and higher safety.

 You can choose a plan according to your own needs. If you need better deck compatibility, less weight and simple level of modification difficulty, you can choose the one-piece kit; if you need higher battery life, better riding balance, and a safer structural solution, the  split kit plan is a better choice.

 

 

Hub Motors vs Belt Motors

What's the difference between an electric skateboard with a hub motor and a belt motor?

Hub motors transmit power directly to the wheels because the hub motor is part of the wheel.
1. Higher Top Speed: Since there is no gear drive to increase torque at the expense of speed, hub-driven electric skateboards offer higher top speeds than equivalently constructed belt-driven skateboards.

2. Quiet operation: the hub motor is quieter. Not only is it encased in urethane rubber, but there's no gearing to create any extra noise.

3. Less maintenance and wearing parts: No gear drives, belts or chains mean no lubrication or replacement, reducing maintenance and costs. It also makes the motor waterproof as there are fewer places for water to enter.

4. Free turning capability: Hub motors provide minimal friction when not powered. So when the battery dies, a hub motor driven electric skateboard is fairly easy to push, especially compared to a belt driven skateboard.

The belt motor is to install the motor and the wheels on the skateboard truck separately and connect them through brackets.
1. Higher torque: Belt drive allows for an input gear on the motor and an output gear on the wheel. Changing the size of these gears will increase the torque available to the motor, just like a car's gearbox changes the torque available to the wheels.

2. More wheel options: Since the motor is separated from the wheels, belt motors have more compatible wheel types.

3. Better Heat Dissipation: The belt-driven skateboard connects the motor to the truck and is open to circulate air while you ride.

Which one is better?
It depends on what you are looking for.
If you want the absolute maximum power from your electric skateboard, a gear driven board can produce even more power due to its torque multiplication factor.
If you want a quieter electric skateboard that lets you keep going when the motor isn't running, and requires less maintenance, a hub motor drive is the better choice.
