In use of modern people enter all new and new things. One of the latest new products is an electrolongboard. It's time to figure out what he represents and how to choose a suitable device.
Peculiarities
On the streets of a big city, it is quite often possible to meet a laneboland with a motor. He moves forward "in itself" and at the same time gains high speed. However, not everything is so unequivocal. Those who are accustomed to ride traditional longboards usually reject electrical apparatus. Yes, when the acceleration takes on the motor - it is easier to ride, but the feeling of a free push characteristic of "mechanics" is disappearing.
Where better beginners. They can compare two types of Longboards and appreciate themselves more pleasant. According to the design, they are pretty close. In both have:
- deck;
- suspension;
- wheels;
- bearings;
- Bushinkhi.
The control of electric models is most often conducted through a special console. It provides for levers or a button, with which they are given "Forward" and "Back". Important: To rotate and change the trajectory, you need to tilt the deck. That's why For those who often ride on a scooter or on a skateboard, the use of an electrolloneboard does not represent problems.
The electrical apparatus is expensive enough, and even the simplest model can be purchased for 15-17 thousand rubles. Top modifications of electrolonboards can cost 100-200 thousand.
The difference between specific devices is related to the following parameters:
- geometry;
- used material;
- dimensional and type of wheels;
- execution of suspension;
- Bearing characteristics;
- The total power of the electric motor.
The speed of electric longborad can be 30-40 km / h. Move in such a pace on the mechanical board is almost impossible, especially for a long time. The total mass of the device on average is 10 kg.
The main part of the range of electrolonboards is equipped with a capacity of 0.3-0.4 kW, capable of driving 20-30 km on one charge. Such devices are able to withstand the load up to 80-100 kg.
The lineup
Very good reputation has RAZOR LONGBOARD ELECTRIC. The device is suitable for children from 9 years and adults. The board can withstand the load of 100 kg. Longboard design is emphasized futuristic, but it does not look screaming. The appearance of this model is combined with the most volatile clothing - and everyday and business style. Thanks to particularly light wheels, it seems that the board flies over the road, and does not go.
Key Features Razor Longboard Electric:
- Speed - 16 km / h;
- ride time - 40 minutes;
- permissible load - 100 kg;
- wheels with a diameter of 0.08 m.
It should be understood that RAZOR is conducting fair marketing policies. Those 40 minutes refer to driving with limit loading uphill. In reality, you can go for 5-15 minutes more. If the battery sees, you can always go further as on a regular board. The manufacturer recommends avoiding jumps and other sharp maneuvers.
Lovers of the Bork technology can choose the LB500 model. This electrollongboard has 2 modes: with a speed limitations 16 and 32 km / h, respectively. In full charge, the device overcomes up to 15 km. Standard battery is charged for 120 minutes. For the manufacture of the LB500 housing, carbon fiber is used, which provides ease of construction.
Curious feature of the model is Embedding a pair of motors directly into the wheel part. The total power of the engines is 1.4 kW. Such a constructive solution provides very compact dimensions and at the same time - excellent high-speed indicators. The battery is very reliable.
Other LB500 parameters are as follows:
- permissible load - 150 kg;
- weight - 6.5 kg;
- wheel diameter - 0.083 m;
- branded warranty for 12 months;
- The electric capacity of the battery is 4.4 amp-hours;
- operating voltage - 36 V;
- The number of charging cycles - 500.
But electrolonboards and Xiaomi produces. Example of this - Acton Electric Skateboard model. The permissible load on the board is 100 kg. It can drive up to 20 km on one charge. An attractive feature of the device is bright backlight based on LED. Important: For the manufacture of the electrosyteboard, a combination of a strong Canadian maple and a carefully selected aluminum alloy was used. Designers have provided a battery from 10 Samsung batteries. This solution allows you to drive Up to 12 km on one charge. The replenishment of the spent charge from zero is possible in 90 minutes.
The limit speed of Action Electric SkateBoard is 22.5 km / h. It provides an electric motor with a capacity of 0.5 kW. Therefore, it will be possible without any problems to be ahead of inexperienced cyclists. The mass of the board is 5 kg, due to which its carrying does not represent special problems. Xiaomi engineers took care of protection against various overload and overheating of electrical wiring. Both skateboard decks are equipped with lower backlight. It helps not only stand out on the road, but also ensure safety when driving in the dark. The thoughtful remote simplifies the life of the Owners of Electric Skateboard.
Implemented by the management of them from a smartphone. Through a special application, you can easily control the main indicators when driving.
How to choose an electroballboard?
First of all, they advise you to pay attention to the characteristics of the deck. The most optimal option is the deck from the Canadian maple. It is strong enough even for off-road and poor asphalt. Important: It makes no sense to acquire models in which there are less than 7 layers of wood. The length and geometry of the deck is selected individually, depending on:
- ride style;
- age of athletes;
- use goals.
So, extremal needs the widest supports. Then it will be possible to calmly overcome even serious obstacles, while maintaining a stable pose. But a narrower product is suitable for ride around the city - it is difficult to maneuver in a thick street stream on a wide electrolloneboard.
The next step when choosing is an assessment of the suspension. Classic performance (with a bolt looking inside) implies a big tilt and a wide turn. Because of this, retain equilibrium at high speed is difficult. Reversing suspension - with a bolt outside - much more stable and easily adapts under various ski styles. At the same time increases the stability of the design. But the suspension differ also by material. Powder aluminum costs less than aviation alloy, but the savings turns on the loss of reliability.
Having understood with the suspension, it is necessary to pay attention to the rags (peculiar "seals"). The difference between them may be in the following parameters:
- stiffness;
- altitude;
- size;
- geometric shape.
Picking up off-road electrolongboard, It is necessary to give preference to models with wheels with a diameter of 0.09 m. The smallest drivers - the size of 0.062 m. What they are larger, the faster you can accelerate, and the easier the small obstacles are overcome. If the wheels are small, the limit speed will be less, but the set is simplified. It must be borne in mind that Very small wheels make Longboards too sensitive to small potholes and cracks.
Bearings are classified according to the ABEC International Standard. The higher the figure in the designation of the class, the faster there will be an electromocateboard, and the higher the inertia of the wheels . Experts advise before evaluating certain technical parameters, determine how users will ride. Cruise and carving lovers need to choose longer models, because they move smasher.
And, of course, it is necessary to study current real reviews about the models of electrolonboards.
Instruction
Consider the use of electrolonboards On the example of the BORK LB500 model. The manufacturer recommends starting to use the device only after checking its configuration and quality assembly. Both the wheels and the battery should be firmly held on the housing. It is unacceptable to use the electrolloneboard if the battery charge indicator shows a discharge. Be sure to ride only in protective equipment and bright clothes with reflective elements.
The proprietary instruction instructs to check the health of the wheels and the brakes before each departure. Do not:
- Fully dipped the laneboard into water;
- ride in frost below -5 degrees;
- Operate the device when various malfunctions are detected.
It is necessary to start riding an electroballboard in the first speed. Quick movement is possible only after the machine is mastering. It is possible to store the electrolongboard only in a dry cool place. The serviceability of the mechanical, electrical and electronic components of the device is provided:
- storage at a temperature of from 5 to 30 degrees;
- the exception of sudden temperature drops;
- storage away from heating equipment;
- Cleaning the electrolongboard after each riding;
- Recharge every month during long downtime.
