Mellow Boards Electric Skateboard - Regenerative braking with overload protection braking resistor

Interesting take here on the problem some electric skateboards have where by the regenerative braking stops working when the battery if fully charged.

They've installed a braking resistor that can dissipate up to 1,000W of energy as heat, so the brakes will never fail you, even when the battery is full.

 

There was a chat about it here, where two riders start their journey from the top of the hill. Neither seem to have had any problems, so perhaps there is a system in place on the Evolves. You could reply in that thread to see how they're getting on.
