An overwhelming number of you guys as our early backers have asked us to make an easily removable battery so you guys can take the battery anywhere and charge it when you want in your office, home, garage or on the go without lugging the entire WAU bike with you.
We couldn’t pass such an overwhelmingly popular request and have been working overtime days and most nights throughout every week together with the entire WAU engineer team to get it all done and finished for you before all deliveries take place! :)
We are always super honest with you. To execute such a mammoth of a task and get this feature to every one of our amazing backers we had to rebuild the entire WAU box from scratch.
Our To Do List:
1. Change and remake the steel injection casting plates.
2. Source different connectors for the inner wiring system.
3. Create a new, watertight hinge.
4. Rework the internal computer chips, their layout and wiring.
5. Source and develop high-quality locking mechanisms to protect your battery from theft.
6. Further, re-enforce the existing WAU box design and crash test the design to make sure it works.
7. Make sure that the full design is waterproofed and protected.
8. And lastly, make sure that the improved design passes all international safety requirements and works perfectly as soon as you take your new WAU bike out of the box on delivery.
*** These Changes Are ALL On The House *** We will get this done all free of any additional charge as a BIG Thank You to your trust in us and belief from the first, early day of WAU!
*** The WAU bike design remains the same with sexy, clean lines *** There will merely be a seamless opening on the left side of your WAU box for your new battery to easily slide out at your convenience.
Originally this was never in the plan; however, we value your fantastic input and desire for WAU to be one of the best electric bikes of all time. In a way the WAU bike becomes an extension of yourself and giving you all the freedom in the world that you truly deserve. Even if that means you do not have to lug the WAU bike up and down the stairs and through doorways to charge it.
We will carry on working hard on our side and make sure everything is done perfectly to give you the BEST EVER experience! <3
WAU engineering department advancements
Our engineering department has also made a few small breakthroughs. After a few tests, we have found a way, that the WAU Bike could have an exciting future accessory! We might just be able to push the WAU bike to.. ??
Write in the comments below your best guess:
130 miles?
150 miles?
200 miles ?
The official answer is coming in the next update! We will keep everyone updated on all advancements. You are guaranteed to be the first to have full access to these accessories before anyone else!
Upcoming Final Surveys
The next and final wave of surveys is coming your way on the next update. As there is an unusually high number of perks and order variations, WAU team members are working through all order configurations with speed and precision. We have had our first test today; however, the user interface is not yet friendly enough to backers. We will work on surveys continuously to get them all fully registered, finished and ready for new ones to go for the next update.
Keep your eyes peeled for the upcoming updates!
BIG BIG BIG LOVE!
