Ninebot S Max - Smart Self-Balancing Electric Transporter by Segway

Yes you can ride your scooter in the rain. Most electric scooters are rated IPX4 or higher, which means it can resist water splashes from various sides or even low spray pressure (IPX5). Though, it is important to expose your scooter to water with discretion. 

Tip: Do not ever submerge your scooter ;)

We wouldn't say so. Though it is important to take good care of your scooter so that you can get the most from it. Typically, all you need to do is clean your scooter frequently and avoid bad roads.  

The expected range on e-scooters is a highly debated topic, and, considering that the advertised expected range is usually determined from "other than ideal" everyday situations, it can be really difficult to tell what is possible and what isn't. Now, we've tried to provide a break down of what has been seen by some of our customers:

• Eco - Best Range, up to 95% of the rated range
• Standard - Consumes more power, so about 12-15% less the rated range
• Sport - Consumes the most power, so about 25 – 40% less the rated range

Depending on the scooter you have, it could take 2-3 hours for kids scooters, and 4-6 hours for mid range, long range and higher.
