The best thing you can do to increase efficiency and save money is learn to replace the cells.
As long as they didn’t design the BMS to brick itself when you disconnect the cells, like future motion did with the One Wheel, allegedly.

You can get higher quality lithium cells than the batteries come with if they start to fail for way cheaper than you’d expect. The boards have like 12 circuits, and if you can’t fix them you can buy them for a few bucks.

I’ve done that on older battery packs. It’s a PITA because many packs are sealed, not screwed together, and you have to physically cut them apart to get to the batteries within for replacement. And assemble the batteries, which are often soldered in order. Then you gotta figure out how to reassemble the whole thing in a way that it won’t crack apart again. Doable, but definitely not for everyone.
