It ain’t much but here’s an electric skateboard I built with locally sourced parts for $350. It has a range of 20 miles (15 sport) and if gas prices stay around $4.50 here it’ll pay for itself in about 1000 miles making it a very economical EV.1yr ⋅ picky-trash-panda ⋅ r/electricvehicles

I need to fix this commodore pet 2001-8N. The crt is where a large problem lies in that the flyback makes a horrible arcing noise and the image is distorted like it is being flattened to the middle.

A vehicle I have yet to decide on a name for but the two most popular with my friends are Death-Mobile and Crack-Bike.

Before you say it’s going to break off and fall into the spokes and kill me it can’t, the spring would pull it away from the spokes. It works pretty nicely for $10 at the hardware store and a little electric superglue.3yr ⋅ picky-trash-panda ⋅ r/motorizedbicycles
