80% alarm

Five rapid beeps per second. Cannot be disabled. On Begode/Gotway wheels, this is the third and final alarm level - the hardcoded line that the firmware will not let you silence.

What triggers it

The wheel is using approximately 80% of its available capacity in current conditions. Battery voltage, speed, load, temperature - all factor in. The specific threshold varies by model and firmware version.

Why it’s not negotiable

The first two alarm levels are configurable. You choose the speed thresholds. The 80% alarm exists because Begode decided there’s a line where rider preference doesn’t matter anymore. You are close to the limit. Period.

555 take

If you hear five rapid beeps, you’ve gone too far. This alarm isn’t a suggestion or a nudge. Decelerate immediately. On low battery, this alarm will fire at speeds that felt safe an hour ago - because the available power has dropped with the voltage.
