Concept: Manufacture of composite battery housings for electric longboards

When designing an electric longboard, I was faced with the question of how best to accommodate the necessary lithium-ion batteries. Strong vibrations, changing temperatures, mechanical stress, and water pose a challenge for the design of the battery housing. After careful consideration, I decided to make a positive mold out of wood and use a vacuum molding process to produce a fiberglass housing that should be able to withstand the expected operating conditions.
