I feel like these things should be done at the manufacturing stage of these scooters. I need to get from point a to b and I don't have the time to do all these hacks.

THANK YOU. This was very instructional and a Fantastic Idea! I will be implementing after your idea.

Thank you, you helped me repair the water resistance of my imax s1+

Your welcome. Thank you for watching.

It's not good to put that high density foam between the floor and the battery. That causes all the pressure and vibrations from your body to push on the battery pack. The gap is there for a purpose. There are other ways to secure the battery, closer to the edges.

Great video ✌🏿

Great work you should be the boss at the factory and show them how its done

Being an avid boater, I'm used to dealing with water intrusion. I would suggest butal tape for this application. It is excellent for waterproofing while remaining easy to remove.

Hey man thanks for the vid was looking to do some kind of water proofing. Very clear spoken also thx bro.by the way what version is that u have.

Hello, I use for similar sealing thin foam strip with adhesive - it is usually used for doors or windows. It work well for me.

Hey, I like your idea. I have a d4 +3.0. Have you had any issues since waterproofing it? Any overheating or anything? Thanks.

πολύ βοvery helpful video. Good job! Can I ask you how many millimeters is the rubber?

do you know what the battery configuration on the scooter is. like what does the label on it say?

Useful. Why not use entire rubber sheet? Doesn’t appear removing center is necessary.

please help me out what is the size of the rubber thank you

Good video, I don't have any issues with water in So. Cali~ were mostly always in a drought, but this is good advice if you run it in water..I got pulled over today by a sheriff, he didn't give me a ticket but he lectured me on Cali's scooter laws, not supposed to ride faster than 15 mph on a scooter, bwahahaha, ok officer I will slow it down, wink wink, he was cool about it, liked the scooter, just said to slow it down...okee dokee….as soon as he was out of sight I was doing 40 again...can't help it.

What scooter do you have? Where you riding with a seat or standing? You blend in better standing up. Make you look like a rental line or bird scooter

I want a modification that locks the stem in place when I fold it and also so it doesn't scratch the floor plate as well.

The O ring used on tap water faucet can be used!

Amazing videos !

There is a nut that sits on top of the spring. Clockwise it makes it stiffer. Counter clockwise makes it softer.

Is it a good idea to put sponge in next to the battery to absorb water

I guess you could. Never really thought about that. Not a bad insurance policy, but if was to get water in my deck i would take out the battery and dry it all up. I get your point with the sponge though.

Congrats on replacing your d4 with a ls7. How does it hold up against your friend's dualtron? Does sealing the deck void warranty?

He's got an RS7 not the LS7, very similar though... He did a comparisons video against the Dualtron already you should check it out , he did a good job. And sealing the deck won't void the warranty on the Nanrobot.

Awesome ideas. I also am all about modding my similar scooter. I have a clone from a different manufacturer, but can tell that we have the same chassis and electronics inside. I thought I was the only one digging around inside this thing, but I have had some mechanical challenges along the way, so I had to. Thanks for sharing your efforts. I have been thinking about a gasket for the main compartment also, since the rtv gets hosed the first time you open it. My initial thoughts are that the deck needs more bolts added to clamp well enough to be effective. Subscribed - feel free to check my efforts out too! FYI - I have replaced my throttle with a Ey3 controller from minmotors, and it I am much happier with it than the original like you have.

Hey strider thanks for watching and subscribing. I watched a couple of your videos. Love the fact that you dive right in so great job. Its funny bc i was looking at those scooters online before i bought my nanrobot and yes it is the same exact scooter except for a couple of part, like the stem for the handle bars. The only reason why i didn't buy that one bc it wasn't as well known and was worried about warranty issues. Side note i almost bought it though lol. Where do you order parts for that? Do they have a website. I was just wondering so if i need parts for my rs7 i have an additional place to look. I hope to explore more about these scooters with you and my KZread fam and good luck with your repairs and mods. As always im here to help where i can.

@@wattsinyours True- us tinkerers need to share knowledge for sure! The best resource I have found thus far is Reddit but it is light on expert knowledge so I think we are "the guys" at this point. Love the formatting of your videos - I need to do the same so they are easier to follow for the public. My videos were mainly made to try to prove to the supplier that their parts failed. A lot of good that did me... To answer YOUR questions: I bought all of my parts via Aliexpress. You have to be very thorough with your searches and sometimes root through many offerings, but can eventually find the right part if you keep digging. You were right to be worried about warranty, as the Samezone folks don't even answer my messages anymore (6 months or so into this). We are on mostly on our own with these China-scooters I think....) If I can help in any way, let me know, as I have done a TON of troubleshooting so far.

That gasket without gluing make no sense. Plate on top i so thin to keep it in proper squeze. Remember you jumping on top of it and everything is working. Rubber will lose its elasticity over time and I can bet that you will find more gaps between bolts then before. Is better to use proper glue for that type of job .

I would have to agree with you to some extent. I could glue the bottom down and not the top so when i take off the lid i don't have to reglue it. What do you think?

Even the most expensive China scooters look underbuilt and poorly designed compared to my 20 year old Kawasaki which can survive half submerged in water. Both are Asians eating stuff with chopsticks but their philosophy to product design is just a world apart. Also his effort is just slightly improving the scooter as there are numerous holes for water to seep in. The entire design of these Chinese scooters does not take rain into consideration. The Chinese are happy with taking your money and don´t care if you die with brake failure or the scooter explodes and burns your house down while charging.

Or just buy a ninebot instead 😉
