      I will be adding a dislike because Inmotion is a dodgy company and doesn't deliver on their promises. Guaranteed shipping to start in August 2000, and they haven't even considered shipping to many customers yet, including Australia. Ask for a refund and they go silent.

    Alright mate. I got his message from Inmotion today - interesting?
    "Although INMOTION L9 already offers one of the most competitive mile range on the electric scooter market, up to 59 miles, some backers still requested for an upgrade to a larger capacity. Thus, we have evaluated the feasibility of this option and came up with a battery upgrade plan. You can get the upgrade of the new battery cell at $160 USD, offered almost at cost. The original battery pack is replaced with the new battery cell pack, and what remains is that the battery pack structure stays constant as 15S5P (15 series and 5 parallels). The overall battery life enhanced by 33% with a larger capacity, with a single cell of 3.6V and 3500mAh, and total capacity is around 908Wh. The overall capacity should reach up to 79.9miles/127km with the upgraded battery pack."

    • @AlienRides
      @AlienRides  4 года назад +1

      That's really interesting, thanks for sharing. Definitely sounds like a huge battery pack, and I would totally upgrade to that. It's not going to get anywhere near 127km though, and I'm just about to release my range test video actually. If I can't release it today I'll release it tomorrow.

    So I'm pretty sure that when it shut down and the red warning light came on, you were correct in thinking that you had overheated the motor...but the fact that the motor shut down and there was a warning light leads me to believe that there is a thermal protection system built into the scooter. The scooter knows that it's too hot and shuts down rather than let you continue to damage it. It's too bad that it overheated but the fact that it has a thermal protection system on it is a good thing.

    • @AlienRides

    Thanks for the video! Looks like the move went smoothly. Bernal has plenty of hills so power scooters are a requirement :) Like you I wouldn't hesitate backing Inmotion. They are a legit company unlike many Indiegogo companies. It is hard to remember a successful e-scooter campaign. The L9 definitely sounds like more speed can be unlocked especially with 60+ volts. Even if it only gets half the claimed range at full speed that would be great. I would rather have this than the Ninebot Max or 365Pro. I still would wait for that new Apollo scooter dual motor commuting they will be announcing in June I believe. I don't know the specs but from what I have been hearing it sounds like what the Rev should have been with a 2 year warranty.

      Alien is testing the EVE battery powered L9 test model and right now Inmotion is making another L9 variant with LG batteries which can reach speeds up to 40km/hr but to reach that top speed the torque needs to be sacrificed which is terrible since the LG variant uses the same 500w motor as the EVE battery model and I just know the LG model has a updated 500w motor so yeah.

    The catch for that range is the 18mph max speed with the larger battery. It will not max out the current on all the parallel cells to maintain 18mph. However if they allowed a top speed of say 24mph that would pull max current from all the batteries and probably get 1/2 the range.
    The top speed means it would be a no go for me, I like the power and top speed to get out of trouble.
    Great review nonetheless, you and ESG are probably the best on the whole of youtube imo.

      It’s hard to know without owning this scooter for a long time, but in general I’d say that lithium cells are good for a while, even after 5-7 years you should have like 90% capacity left. Personally I think it will be fine. Good luck with your decision.

      I think the build quality of the Inmotion is quite good. I do think it will have longer range than the Max as well. Personally I would probably go for the L9 over the max, but I'm not sure it's a big enough upgrade to switch your max for if it's working well.

      Yeah, I'm hoping it's fixed, and also likely not a problem for most folks if there's not as many hills as San Francisco.

      I believe they have a six month warranty on the battery, so if it's toast within that timeframe you should get a new one for free. After that I'd hope you could purchase one from inmotion or a dealer, but I don't have experience with that myself.

    Hi, I've been playing with my new L9. As has been said many times, the handlebars are too high and at the moment I don't feel very stable on it. Does seem strange they aimed this at people >6ft.
    I tested it on a nearby hill which rises 42 metres / 45 yards in a distance of 400 metres / 437 yards, so 10.5%. That doesn't sound much of a gradient but it's pretty steep. It slowed down to 8kph towards the top, where it gets steeper. I was slightly surprised at this, as in response to Yo Me's question below Allen Rides said that it managed most of a 25% gradient, so I thought it would handle a 10.5% gradient a bit better.
    The ride quality is pretty smooth on my city's badly-maintained roads and I really like the thumb throttle as the finger ones I've tried can be a bit difficult to control.
    In future I'd suggest the indicators are controllable rather than coming on only when you are already turning, and a shorter stem. A version with a more powerful motor, or dual motors, would be great for those of us who live in hilly cities. I'm generally happy with it though.

    I think this review was more promoting and less reviewing as the crowdfunding is ending. I prefer Chuck's one. Apparently it's $549 Plus shipping $50-100, not $549 shipped. With those flaw in design, I feel like a lab rat with this cheap price from crowdfunding site.

    • @AlienRides
      @AlienRides  4 года назад

      That's fair, I always try to show the good and bad, and had more than one thing that could've been better including the overheating during a hill climb 😅 It is cheap for sure, and while it's a better deal than a xiaomi/ninebot, but more expensive scooters will probably be a bit higher quality. Cheers.
