Boosted ReVOLT! Dashboard Lens (3D Printable, WATERPROOF)

 Boosted ReVOLT! Lens

I developed a 3D-printable dashboard cover lens, free to download on my github account:


(look for dashboard lens)

The lens can be filament or resin printed, without supports and in one piece. Print the dashboard front to the bottom of the print bed (upside down). Min. resolution is 0.4mm. 

Use a (semi) transparent material. (Like black transparent)

The lens is a perfect fit with the stock dashboard pieces of the Boosted Rev (see pictures). Pictures include a test piece, in white. Don't print in white, unless that's the effect you are looking for.

Waterproofing the button

To waterproof the button, cut out a small circular shape out of a rubber material, for ex. a balloon. Glue this piece to the underside of the edge surrounding the button. Let it cure before use;

Boosted Rev - Custom Battery (12s) + Stormcore ESC + ReVOLT! Dashboard

Boosted Rev Upgrade - The 'Wev' update - but different (Stormcore 60+, ReVOLT! Dashboard) If you have been reading my previous blogposts, you'll notice this is the third post in a series where I initially wanted to replace a dead battery on my boosted Rev. Here's a short recap: Although I am delighted in the build quality of the Boosted Rev, my battery died because of intensive use (which is to be expected after 500-800 charge cycles for any Li-ion battery) I tried to tear the battery down to replace the cells, only to have a locked and completely useless BMS. The cells however were new, so it would be a shame to throw those away Because the Boosted ESC requires an original working Boosted BMS, without my battery, the ESC will not boot up and my whole scooter is rendered useless I am absolutely delighted about the build quality of the Boosted Rev, this thing is SOLID! (and looks good being so). Between buying a new scooter and replacing the insides of the Boosted I chos

Boosted Rev Battery Teardown (and failure)

 Boosted Rev Battery Replacement - Teardown and and failure READ UPDATES! For downloads, refer to  https://github.com/MichaelCastiau/boosted-rev-battery-replacement UPDATE:   The rebuild of the original battery ended in a complete failure :( Boosted has made it absolutely impossible to even replace the Li-ion cells inside it's battery. Read dedicated article for more information. About 2 years ago, I bought a Boosted Rev scooter. A powerful, robust, reliable scooter that I use almost daily. Heavy usage, that is. I use it as I commute between home and work, when going for groceries, visiting friends... I am very impressed with the work the engineer team pulled off with this product. It has very smooth acceleration curves, feels very solid and I haven't had a breakdown.... until now. Over the course of the last year, the battery capacity has reduced drastically. I now have less than half the initial capacity. (Although it's sad to have less capacity, this is expected behaviou

Boosted Rev Custom Battery 3D Parts and build instructions (free!)

 I've been making custom parts for the defunct Boosted Rev for some time now. One part that I continuously get questions about is the battery. Considering many people end up with dead batteries, I put together two 3d-printable designs that allow for people to put together their own batteries with minimal effort. I made 2 designs: 370Wh battery, 12S3P 18650 cells. Original capacity, small size. Extra space for large/smart BMS. 1000Wh battery, 12S5P 21700 cells. Huge capacity but very large. Requires a small BMS to fit the VESC. 1kWh extended battery, packaged and ready Both designs are best printed in a water resistant, flexibel material, like PETG or ABS. If you wrap up the battery correctly in shrink wrap, the battery may be rendered waterproof using extra silicone or waterproofing tape. Needed: PETG, ABS or other watertight, flexible filament (it's important the filament is flexible, don't print in hard resin) 180mm or 200mm battery shrink wrap (available on Amazon or
