There are some eskates that have load resistors so the excess regen power can be sent to the resistors when the battery is full.

I live with a downhill start on my daily commute so never charge above 98% to avoid it. Its really not a big deal once you read the manual to understand the limits and warnings from FM.

For me load resistors would just add weight and complexity to protect for a scenario which only occurs for a very short duration of any ride. I like FM's approach to keep it simple.

The app power meter does need a calibration from new. I wasn't charging my XR to 100%, so not waiting for the charger LED to go green. The app was reading 100% when the voltage was only 59V. I did my first balance charge (left it on for ages) and the voltage gets up to the rated 63V. Now its calibrated itself. You can see the battery voltage on the board settings page.

Once that is done you can start to think about trusting the app power meter and range estimate.

Hey Wings, you can download the manuals for both the V1 and plus https://onewheel.com/pages/manuals

Compare the two board specs. I don't think you'll have an issue on grassy hills. The lower power of the V1 might just mean you can't go up as fast as the higher power Plus. Torque is what you need to go uphill, Power is just the rate of torque before the battery/motor give up. I think you'll lose traction before you run out of torque.

Is there a full listing of the Leaderboards on the website? I'd like to see how many other riders are near me on the streak count?
