    I just recently got my Onewheel+ and today was my first day of riding it, in very cold weather which made me come to realize that the onewheel has a short battery life in the cold, which makes complete sense. My question is options for a charger. I could obviously bring my charger with me but I would prefer to have one at home and one that always comes with me. I don't think I need the ultracharger and I'm not exactly looking to spend that much on a charger, I need something that will charge it while I am at work or getting a coffee to just give it the extra boost. I know CarvePower has a wall charger that is $80 but I didn't know if there is something cheaper out there. I also plan on buying CarvePower's mobile charging system soon, once the weather gets warmer and I am looking for longer rides, but for the time being I just want something to have with me to plug in when I'm not on the go or in a rush. Thanks in advance!

    @sonny123 Is the two amps enough? I thought it needed at least 3.5? It also isnt the right termination for the XLR

    You'll have to change the plug.
    2 amp will just take longer.

    It should work unless you get a lemon.

    @sonny123 are people using that one as well? Is the only real difference the auto stop?

    Did you have a look at these chargers on alibaba?
    https://www.alibaba.com/product-detail/UL-FCC-listed-XLR-Female-58_60672042507.html?spm=a2700.7724838.2017115.2.64df11abKtR9zu

    Specs-wise they would work. The only thing is the minimum order capacity :)
