This ES2 scooter goes 15mph stock, but if you add the external battery, it'll hit 19mph. This external battery off Amazon will run you about $200, but if you go to Segway's website, this battery will run you $249.

In terms of how much time the battery lasts, I wanna say about 2-3 hours if you add the external battery. Or else it'll be around 1 hour with just the stock battery. But there's a lot of variables that could change that, such as your weight, the route you take (flat terrain or hilly), and the weather also, if it's too hot or cold outdoors.

Ouch, change the reviews to "recent" and it's a mess. I guess QC went out the door sometime in the last year.

This is very early model scooter and has a number of limitations. Single battery model might be good at $200 but at $300 I'd go for $350 scooter range options.
It has a number of design flaws that might or might not be fixed.
For example if you use the light it eventually burns up the circuit inside until the scooter does not work anymore. And even if you don't want to use the light you will accidentally turn it on as it's the same button as it takes to turn scooter on.
Another issue is that older model would straight up break if you try to use electric break when the battery is full.
At the same time this unit has a number of pluses as well. The range (with external battery) is nice. I estimate about half the advertised range with hills and stuff, but 14mi is plenty (about an hour run drive). For shorter trips like 5 miles I actually prefer scooter then a car. The speed is decent, make sure to wear a helmet. Some people prefer it faster but it's fast enough for me. Charger isn't really fast, but is good enough for overnight charge.
Minuses
*It struggles with hills. With heavier people (200lb) it won't make 10* hill which is half of newer scooters.
*You need to use the app to make it go fast enough and give it an account and all phone permissions including location etc.
*Tires are stiff. Only use if the roads are perfect. Any bumps especially at speed are tough to handle.
*folding mechanism is a bit sketchy. I would not trust it to fold up and unfold every day. Because if it breaks while riding it… you are eating pavement
*screen dies in 2 years. Not a big thing if you go short range but you can't see range anymore otherwise.
*do not try to carry groceries in one hand. This ain't a bike, backpack is required.
You can grab open-box batteries off amazon for far less than retail. I think I got a replacement for 60 bucks.
But even so, invest in something better.
