You aren't going to get 28 miles of range. Just keep your tires inflated.
r/ElectricScooters • Are electric scooters worth it? ->Your dreaming of you think a es3 is going anywhere near 28 miles on a charge If you go slow and take it easy you’ll get 18-20 miles max out of it that’s when the weather is warm out and. Flat smooth riding surface no headwinds a good rule of thumb on any electric scooter is to reduce claimed range by a minimum of 1/3 that’s if your not going real heavy on the. Throttle and riding as fast as it will go . If you want a scooter that will give a range of 28 miles go with a Segway max g30p it’ll cost you more initially but will last far longer due to Less charging cycles being used and the ride quality of 10 inch tubeless tires and it’s longer wheelbase makes it a far safer scooter to ride 8 inch solid tires are ok for a few miles short trips but will beat you to Death after that the Segway es3 is not a very stable scooter I own one that I use for short trips to grab a few groceries whenever I ride it I think To myself this thing is a dangerous death trap I have multiple scooters that range from the Segway es1 with an added external battery making it effectively a es3 all the way to my Nami burn e max . There is a saying buy nice or buy twice which winds up costing you more than had you just sprung for the better scooter to begin with . Also get a helmet full face bare minimum .
r/ElectricScooters • Are electric scooters worth it? ->Some do have telesopic handlebars the emove cruiser has adjustable height bars it has a claimed range of 62 miles though 40 is more realistic top speed 33 mph 10 inch tubeless tires a new improved suspension design and a sine wave.

Cruiser is just that so it won’t take well to being abused so if your hard on your toys it may Not Be for You the battery on the emove is around 3x as big As the Segway G2 if your not concerned with speed and are riding where it’s flat or with very slight hills the Segway is A good option though its range is a bit less around 28 miles real World buy a helmet a full face helmet is a good idea as a fall can happen very quickly and it only Takes landing Wrong once to be supporting your local Dentist & Or plastic Surgeon new riders are more likely to have crashes than are experienced riders whatever scooter you do decide to go with have fun and stay safe pay 100% attention 100% of the time while Riding
r/ElectricScooters • Leaning towards Segway Ninebot Max G2, need help deciding. ->Please understand there is zero circumstance a scooter with those battery specs (in either watt hours, or in amp hours depending upon the voltage) is going 28 miles. It's a sad secret of the scooter industry, across brands and price ranges, that in the real world, scooters typically get 50-70% manufacturer range. Also, sidenote, the Ninebot ES-line of scooters have terrible reputations for being bad scooters in addition to be unreliable. Maybe you'll get lucky, but I wouldn't risk it on this thing. Why Walmart, and what's your budget? Maybe we can give better recommendations. Edit to add: yes, scooters for most people are "worth it" to answer your main question. But unless I have exactly zero other options, I would never buy this one from Walmart. You asked two very different questions and kind of mixed them together.
r/ElectricScooters • Are electric scooters worth it? ->I own 3, one of them is an ES1. The ES series are rickety pieces of shit. The only thing they have going for them is they are very portable and solid tires which means no flats. The ride is horrible, the acceleration is horrible, they have no hill climbing ability and for that you suffer.
