A place to share practical, durable and quality made products that are made to last, with an emphasis on upcycled and sustainable products!

Guidelines:

Things that are well-made and durable (even if they won't last a lifetime) are A-Okay!

Unlike that other BIFL place, Home-made and DIY items are encouraged here, as long as some form of instruction is included in the body of the post.

Videos links are not allowed as post titles, but you may use them in a text post.

A limited amount of self-promotion is accepted, IF the item you are selling aligns with this criteria:

The item must be made with sustainable or recycled materials.
If electronic in some way, the item must be open-source.
The item must be user-serviceable (if applicable).
You cannot be a large corporation.
The post must be clearly marked with a [Self Promotion] tag in your title.

Looking to find a reliable escooter with a removable battery that is concious of secutity. My last scooter a max g2 got stolen need something reliable at least 18 mph and can go like 20 mile range, good in cold, snow and rain.

Edit: someone broke into my garage, and stole my scooter, helmet and kroptonite lock. IT WAS LOCKED UP they cut the pipe it was attached to

Looking for a swapable battery cause then I dont have to carry the whole scooter up stairs, as well as it could be replaced easily in the future

I fully agree being able to build your own DIY batteries is indeed very solarpunk. I only wanted to clarify that we allow non-literal BIFL suggestions, as you mentioned that all personal ev's are not technically BIFL (which is true).

The replies you are receiving are not from slrpnk.net accounts, but instead are from off-instance, likely from people who simply subcribe to this BIFL comm or saw it in in the /All view, and who do not consider themselves solarpunks.
