-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.

I will test mine tomorrow
There is NO front brake !
Mine is still in transit from NJ .
All the accessories like the phone holder are super cheap Chinese plastic. Bad smell.
tempted to buy a second one.
Has enough power to get me across the semi-bumpy and deep grass in the yard too. The $490 48v 20ah emoto back in May is still a lot nicer though, as expected lol
This sounds worth a message to the seller. .Bad Brake is a safety concern . Also the description mentioned Dual Brakes .

The seat is uncomfortable and the handlebars are too low to comfortably ride standing (unless you're fairly short). If you're gonna get the advertised range out of this guy, you're gonna want to replace with a decent cruiser seat. The foot platform tape isn't very grippy and is peeling a little at the top, I'm strongly considering ripping it off and putting down skateboard grip. The included accessories are mostly junk - the phone holder is too small for modern flagships and I wouldn't trust a cable lock with a barbie scooter. There's no front brake (which was listed in the product description) though I found the rear disc + motor brake adequate on both flats and downhills.
The instructions don't mention how to mount the front wheel properly, especially since there's no front brake. To wit: align the side of the wheel that should have the disc attached with the side of the fork that should have the brake attached (the left), then push the axle pin through with the smaller of the two spacers on the same side. The order goes, from the right, nut - locking washer (with the pin into the hole in the fork) - fork - washer - large spacer - wheel - small spacer - washer - fork - locking washer - nut.
It's a nice little pelican style case for the back, though honestly it's too small for anything you'd really want to use it for. I'll probably just bungee a milk crate on there instead so I can toss a grocery bag in - there's no good mounting point for a grocery pannier, sadly, which would be a pretty ideal use for one of these.
