Easy build self balancing electric skateboard

Step 29 Battery connections

I have used 2 simple 7AmpHour lead acid batteries in series to give 24V.

The main power switch is in the middle and essentially "joins them together."

Diagram below.

Again, make sure power leads go into the Sabertooth the correct way around.

Should be OK. You would need 2 of them.
