-Slickdeal page said it was "AOVOPRO", but when it arrived, it was branded "Joyhis". I have a feeling this listing is similar as the Aliexpress page mentions nothing about AOVOPRO, just that the seller is "AOVOPRO Choice Store". All brands are similar, just white labeled so it's whatever.
-I got the 22ah battery version and paid $189 before tax for it, so $153 would be a great deal. But I have a feeling these will be the 10ah version. Item listing page has all sorts of errors. For example, it claims to have front disc brakes, this scooter does not...just rear disc and an electronic brake in the motor. Honestly, it's fine.
-The speedometer is off on these, it claims 22mph but it's closer to 16mph max.
-I could not find the max speed override even though online claims it works by holding the two buttons. The electronic brake kicks in once you hit "22mph", most evident is when you're going downhill and the scooter goes ABOVE the max speed, the brake auto kicks in if you push on the throttle.
-Someone mentioned 50% of stated range for the battery, I would say it all depends on terrain and weight of the person. I ride in "sport" mode all the time and getting 30-35 miles on it. So I would say you definitely should get half when the battery is new and weather is optimal.
-The vicont app is fine, limited to what's available, there is a "lock" feature but can be defeated if a thief knows the button combo override.
-Cruise control is available, just hold the throttle for 5s and it will engage, brake or throttle cancels cruise control.
Overall, I like this scooter, wish it had a key ignition like my old one but I will live for $200. Really convenient if you are traveling short distances all the time...especially if you happen to be in an urban environment.
I immediately took the belly pan apart to determine what was driving the thing, and, as expected- It's a fairly inexpensive, low spec controller.
The YouFS-V160 350w Brushless Motor controller. This is rated for 48v DC at 15amp drive.
The speed control is covered in some sort of silastic polymer to keep the connections from rattling apart while riding, but doesn't appear to offer any signficant water ingress protection. The battery itself is unfortunately glued into the tray, and since i actually intend to ride it, I did NOT tear into that part of the unit.
Wiring from the battery to the controller uses a standard XT60 style connector (stuck together with more glue). Motor appears to have standard 3x power wires and then halleffect (sensored wires) for the controller to sense position and timing to allow smoother drive.
It rides decently, I'm about 185 and in "S" mode it cruises along with a good clip. I can take fair size grades but it exhibits slowing significantly when momentum is lost.
Enjoy some internal pics, so you don't have to tear your own apart.

This seated 500W, 48V scooter stands out for its huge battery option, long claimed range, and surprisingly strong value around $160 shipped. The 22.5Ah version is repeatedly tied to the heavier 74-pound package, and real-world reports put top speed closer to 16 to 22 mph depending on rider weight and display accuracy. Assembly takes some work, and the included accessories feel cheap. The main concerns are inconsistent listing details, possible battery-capacity mixups, and weak rear braking with no front brake on some units. It is a compelling commuter or camping runabout if you can sort out the specs and setup.
The scooter can reach around 22 mph on the display and GPS tests have shown roughly 16-17 mph in real riding.
The 22.5Ah battery version has been confirmed by multiple checks including a battery label and disassembly verification.
The scooter includes a storage lock box and riding modes, and the tail light behavior changes when braking.
The pneumatic 14-inch tires use inner tubes, so punctures can be repaired by patching the tube rather than replacing a tubeless tire.
The listing and invoice details have shown mismatches where the cart or invoice can display 10.4Ah even when 22.5Ah is selected.
The scooter has been reported to lack a front brake despite dual-brake claims, which creates a safety concern for stopping performance.
Braking hardware has been reported to rub or warp, including rear disc brake drag that can persist even after many miles.
Battery range claims have been questioned, with real-world testing and energy draw suggesting less usable capacity than advertised.

and then shunt the controller

It is not a run flat, so any nail that punctures the tire & tube will result in a flat tire that needs to be repaired (patch the hole in the tube).
A car tire is tubeless.
but 50 pounds? foldable but not portable
and also not LiFePo4 so they burn your apartment/house down while you are away and they are charging
I was looking for something to toss in our Camper, but also use around town for quick grocery runs, and this looks perfect. Looking forward to seeing if it delivers.
