Description
Thanks to Auden Huffman for designing the original PubBox! It's been a great foundation for future designs.
This XR-form-factor controller box provides numerous controller mounts and plenty of room for activities.
CNC Pubbox V3.0 brings the following main features, updated for V2.2:
#10-32 rail mount screws
Angled footpad and battery harness mount points, to help with pushing the battery harness into the rail and to allow more clearance for the footpad connector
Threaded battery harness hole, M20. No more inner nut needed, just thread it in.
Now, the box has full contact with the rails at both screw points. No more tab spacers needed for the bumpers (which also means bumpers with these tabs will need them removed).
23% less lid screws!
Compatible with several VESC controllers for a range of options:
Thor300/Thor400/JF6
Mk8/Mk8 Pro
Lfoc
Tronic X12
Adapters and plates are available for:
Ubox 85v
...and more
Can fit 2s2p 21700 Split pack depending on size of VESC you use.
If you install an X12, you must remove its original mounting plate and use its 4 center holes to install and PLEASE install a NEW 1mm thick Thermal Pad AND MOSFET Spacer between the box floor and X12 (https://makerworld.com/en/models/543493). This will prevent any shorting on the MOSFETS which is sadly not already included on the original X12.
Compatible with the Superflux Plug on the Motor Cable Side
Compatible with Genuine Switchcraft Port for use with stock XR Footpads
MUST USE 19x1 Threaded Button AND GX16x1 Charge Port (This means a 19mm diameter button with 1mm thread pitch and 16mm diameter port with 1mm thread pitch (choose whatever pin count you need), usually specified somewhere on the product listing)
