To get an idea here is one approach for fixing the battery issue
https://www.reddit.com/r/ninebot/...ve_es2es4/
I accept this will be an issue and am handy enough to fix it but the scooter is cheap for a reason.
Also understand that this deal has been going on for some time, so there's a higher risk of getting someone else's recent return due to cosmetic damage, high mileage, being prone to failure, etc. compared to when the deal first started.
HOWEVER
When I tried to bind the device to my Segway account in the app, it told me the device was still "bound" to the previous owner. Not that this prevents me from using the device or connecting to it in the app, but it annoys me that the app and Segway both think the device belongs (by serial number) to the previous owner. I have been back and forth with Segway support AND Newegg support, and they have actually been in contact with each other to resolve the issue, but I haven't heard any successful resolution as of yet.
So if this sort of thing might annoy you, beware. But as I mentioned before, the device functions perfectly fine without needing to unbind from the previous owner, it's just annoying to me personally.

So $230 and you get 12 to 14 miles, not bad as long as it's fully functioning.
I would be curious if you can add another homemade battery pack to this and get a little extra mileage
