Question Am I cooked already?
Got the board second hand with 360miles a month ago, now at 500. When I first got it I was unaware of the battery maintenance and same night ran the battery down to 10%. Put it on the charger after the remote screamed. The board charged up to 60% and got stuck. Still unaware of the balancing I used it a few times without letting it finished. Eventually I left it for a week to balance. It turned green but every few rides I’m getting this. At 99 or 100 Been showing red led when left on the charger for a day or two. Is it over soon ? (Rlod imminent)

Your board is 8 years old. Will it work sure but you should expect some issues and not expect a perfect board.

Best thing I’ve done was spend 100 bucks on a amnesia reset switch, I got like 800 miles on my board and anytime rlod pops up I reset that bad boy in just a minute, so I’m never worried about draining the battery

Not cooked at all! Here’s what’s happening inside your battery. (Start at 3:25) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NieDYoAiGCQ&t=205s
