This folding 8.5 inch scooter stands out as a very cheap clone model with solid real world speed potential and a strong deal price around $84. The Tuya app can unlock settings like max speed and no push start, and several reports say it reaches about 20 mph after setup, even for heavier riders. Out of the box, though, some units are throttled to about 14 to 15 mph, so performance depends on the clone and app behavior. Stock also appears limited in California, making the low price a short lived opportunity.

Common Questions (6)

  • It may ship limited to about 14-15 mph, but the Tuya app can unlock a higher max speed on some units. Several owners report setting it to 20 mph in the app, while others say theirs stays throttled at 14 mph.

  • The scooter uses the Tuya app, not the Vicont app, and the app can expose speed and start-mode settings on some units. One setting reportedly allows no push-start, so the scooter can begin from a standstill.

  • Yes. The same clone scooter is commonly seen around $100-$110 on sale, and $85 or lower is described as unusually low for this size/spec. The coupon also worked when applied directly, making the deal especially strong.

  • Not necessarily. The Tuya app reportedly has a setting to disable push-start, letting the scooter start from a standstill without rolling first.

  • One 200+ lb rider reported it still reaching 20 mph after unlocking the app speed limit. Another clone scooter mentioned in the thread topped out closer to 16 mph for a similar rider, so performance can vary by clone or seller.

  • It is often out of stock in California and tends to return every 2-3 months. When it does appear at about $85, it may last only a few hours, so it sells out fast.

we consistently see these clone scooters at $100-105. The $85 range scarce even just searching history here. I have never seen this size/spec scooter lower than $85 though unless a genuine mistake.
Yeah $100 is a more realistic price, I got one for $100 plus tax I pay $114 here in L.A. California. But I see it again for $85 im grabbing a second one

Yea I see tuya is used on a lot of these clone scooters. Seems like there are other apps that might be compatible. Have to see what other people say when they get theirs. So yours cant go over 14 MPH? From the other clone scooters like this that ususually is the case until its "unlocked" by the app. I'll report when I get mine.
Yeah I would definitely appreciate it if you let me know if you figure out a way to unlock it. If I put it in sport mode and pick the front wheel up and press the throttle it goes to 14 mph and no higher.

I just got mine. I will confirm mine goes 20 MPH! Out of the box and not doing anything it went 15 MPH no problem even weighing over 200 lbs.

I downloaded the app from the QR code on the scooter. It downloads the Tuya app. I already have it because of lights LEDs that use the same so added the scooter.

There it allows me to set max speed to 20 MPH! And it went 20 MPH. there is also a setting if you want to enable no push start. so no need to be rolling before the motor starts. Will start even from standstill.

Maybe this is different than the one you got? Was it same seller? A lot of clones of these but maybe some variations

I just got this today and if you were able to score it at $84 man its a great feeling to get a product like this for this price.

It's hard to complain because of the price. First of all this thing goes 20MPH. Out of the box it goes 15mph. this uses the Tuya app (some might be familiar with it from LED lights). Once you add the scooter on the app you can lock it, and unlock full speed to 20MPH. You can also enable starting without rolling. So it will start from a standstill no push off necessary.

THIS WILL GO 20MPH. I'm 200+ lbs and it hit the 20MPH effortlessly. Only tested flat ground which I only intend 100% of this scooter to be using.

Those who complain about the tire size and solid. Meh. Just spoiled people. The solid tires are fine. Yea youll feel the bumps but if you are not on paved flat roads or are consistently curb jumping. And even if you do go on rougher roads if you are even an ounch of growing up a normal kid riding bikes etc. you know to bend your knees and bounce with the terrain to soften the feel/blow. Stiff unatheletic types will complain though. Preferthese honeycomb solid if you ever dealt with air filled and having to replace tires/tubes especially the wheel with the motor connected. So over that.

I ALSO have the famous LAPED equivilant which looks like a clone of this like many others:
https://slickdeals.net/f/19632318-ladped-lp60-350w-electric-scooter-19mph-speed-16-miles-range-8-5-tire-102-74-free-shipping-at-aliexpress?v=1

I will say THIS ailife build quality doesnt feel and look are nice/high compared to the LAPED one, but because of the price it doesnt phase me. The big important thing is the LAPED cant go 20MPH if you are over 200lbs. That one struggles and wont reach 19-20mph and keeps me at 16MPH. You also have to unlock it to hit 19-20mph through their app and I know i did because it goes 20mph when lifted wheel spinning and with kids using it in the ~100lb range.

I'm satisfied with both but this one is nice that it will go the 20mph even for heavier riders despite the build quality "FEELING" lower than the other.

Hey thanks for the heads up. I went back and looked at the app again and found the setting to make it 20 miles an hour on mine also. Either it wasn't there before or I'm blinder than I thought I was.
