Cheap for a reason, Hover makes dogshit scooters. Spend a little more and atleast get an ES-2, well worth it.
I bought a hover scooter in 2019 bf for $150 and it's been fantastic. Still works and I used to commute to work. I am a fan of them.

10 ah so 410 watt hours at full charge or 360 watt hours nominal.

No kick scooter batteries can go on planes.

There's some confusion about the range on this vs the Blackhawk. They look nearly identical but the Blackhawk claims 28 miles of range while this claims 18 miles.

I own the Blackhawk and no way it'll get 28 miles unless you count coasting downhill for half of it.

The spec sheets list identical 10 ah battery and 350 watt motor so I suspect Hover-1 came to their senses and put down a more realistic range for this version.

Quote from SlickRumRunner :
I have a similar one from Hoover-1. The stem of the post cracked near the folding lock with light use of the scooter. I contacted their support. No way to fix it. And they don't have replacement parts. Absolute junk and horrible company. I highly recommend against buying a scooter from them, no matter the price.
EXACTLY what he said The weld cracks. Happened to THREE Hover Scooters. Very dangerous, STAY AWAY!

I returned mine after one week from the last Best Buy sale. Stopped working altogether. It was nice when it worked but I wouldn't do it again

Same. I got that Hover scooter on the 2019 deal, and it's been great. My wife takes it to work nearly half mile each way daily. It's held up fine including the stem hinge. The fact it's a lighter duty/range model has been a plus, easy to fold and carry in/out of house and work. My wife isn't overweight though, and takes care of the scooter. For a heavy person and if bashing it about, maybe a heavier duty more expensive scooter is the ticket.

Sold out while I was looking at it. Had purchased this one at Amazon and was on the fence

Amazon comments look much better on this one than Hover. As they say "you get what you pay for"

Quote from doggyworld :
My Hover-1 Blackhawk still going strong since last year! I also made an XT60 battery switch for it so I can use the batteries on my Ebikes! Smilie For $200, I would consider getting another one if I had the space for it.

Edit: After reading the bad reviews, it looks like maybe they changed the strength of the stem locking mechanism on these.. as it looks like a lot of failures on the lock breaking. On the blackhawk, I have not had any issues like that although I did tighten the screws near the latch to make sure everything was a snug fit.
This is a pretty genius idea. Could you please send me more info on how you achieved this? Also, the underlying hardware (controller, etc) is capable of supporting a 48V source, so it would be very interesting to run a higher voltage and larger external battery. In theory that would enable a significantly higher power on the motor, which would give more power on hills, which is the only weakness of this excellent scooter. Installing an XT-60 switch would allow one to use either the stock battery or a larger external one.
