How to Identify the Performance of a Hover Board
Before we buy a hoverboard, we’ll always pay attention to its performance, such as speed, range , charging efficiency, etc.And although these data are introduced on the product details page, often they are rough,even inaccurate. Because many manufacturers do not have a rigorous test standard, and most of us buy the hoverboard as a toy for children, the actual users who do not care too much about the parameter. But if you are a senior fan of the hoverboard, you may not order one in haste after having a glance at the buyer's reviews.
So how to get the real performance of the hoverboard? After all, we can not gain the data by testing one hoverboard ourselves buying from the store, so I try to use my knowledge of electronics to help you choose a truly cost-effective hoverboard.
By the way,here I want to explain why I said that the data of the merchant test is not accurate enough. Although the data of the merchant is also obtained through real test, but because of the product driven by the mobile power source like the hoverboard, the data during the test is greatly affected by its load(the load refers to the weight of the tester) and the road conditions where it has been tested.
When a 50kg person and a 70kg person test the same hoverboard under the same conditions, the speed it can achieve and the range will be absolutely different .Anyhow, the testers of each brand can never be cloned by the same person, so the difference in data is inevitable. Then,how do we see the difference in performance in this situation? - Let’s look at the electrical parameters.
1.What the real power does a hoverboard have?
The size of the motor and the diameter of the winding determine the motor’s torque. In general, the 8.5-inch hoverboard is much more powerful than the 6.5-inch one. The motor may have different power in spite of the same size,but the merchant will only mark a rough power range in general, if you need, you can ask the seller for torque of the motor, the torque is the decisive factor of hoverboard's power. In addition, the maximum voltage of the battery is different, resulting in different power supply of the motor, and the power will also change. This is why two hoverboards of the same size and motor power,one can climb a steep slope of 18 °, while the other can barely pass the slope of 15 °. Generally, the hoverboard on the market has a battery pack with 36V and 24V voltage schemes. Please pay attention when purchasing. If you are a heavy-weight user,over75kg, please choose a 36V battery pack and 8.5 inch hoverboard, otherwise it will easily overload the motor when climbing a steep slope. In addition to the limitations of the hoverboard's performance itself, the speed of the hoverboard has system setting restrictions. Even for a powerful hoverboard, some manufacturers set the speed limit to a certain level for safety reasons. This hoverboard is characterized by even the user's weight is high and the scooter's start-up and operation are still very stable.
2.How far can a hoverboard practically run?
Another important parameter is the capacity of the battery, which determines your hoverboard range. For the reasons mentioned above, the actual usage data is still dependent on the user, and players with small weights can often run farther. The capacity of the battery can be seen from the number of battery cells that make up the battery pack and the capacity of a single unit battery. For example, a single 18650 model battery generally has two capacities of 2Ah and 4Ah, and the entire battery pack is composed of multiple battery cells. The total capacity is generally expressed in terms of **WH (the higher the number, the higher the capacity).For example,a 24V/4Ah battery with 96WH(10 cells) could supply your self-balancing scooter for 10 kilometers,another one with 36V/4Ah 144WH(10 cells) may supply your hoverboard for more than 15 kilometers. Large unit capacity batteries and battery packs with a large number of cells are a guarantee of high endurance.
3.What does the weight limit of a hoverboard really depend on？
The max load of hoverboard is also an indicator that we value very much. Here I divide the load capacity into two situations: one is the static load. This is mainly to consider the firmness of the material structure of the hoverboard. The shatter-resistant plastic and aluminum alloy body are currently the high standard configuration, but several manufacturers want to reduce the cost will use ordinary ABS materials, or reduce the size of aluminum parts. Please be sure to consult the merchant before buying; The other is dynamic load,the maximum load the hoverboard can smooth operate with, which is not specific to many manufacturers.But in my experience, people over 75kg often feel powerless when using a 6.5-inch self-balancing scooter, especially when cornering and climbing.
High-performance products are naturally accompanied by high prices, or in order to balance the sacrifice of appearance.When buy a hoverboard, please choose according to your own needs.
The following is a hoverboard I think is very cost-effective:
.36V / 4Ah /144WH large capacity battery
.8.5 inch 400W powerful motor
.Aluminum alloy and shatter-resistant plastic structure is enough to carry the weight of up to 120 kg
.Even the adapter is 42V / 1.5A (63W) fast charger
.And this configuration only costs $ 219 ,unbelievable!
If you go to Amazon or eBay to compare other products at this price,you’ll find its perfomance is really unusual!Although this hoverboard may not be prominent for the appearance.,it’s also the best choice for $300 or less.https://asiwo.com/self-balancing-hoverboard-sport-8-5-inch-big-wheel-hover-board-electric-balance-scooter-with-bluetooth-and-led-lights-black-black-grey.html
