Tip: you can buy a smart outlet and set it to shut off at the number of hours it takes to charge your scooter to avoid over charging. Or set alarms.
That regen breaking is all i use, its soo good! Reminds me of when i had a standard card and would downshift to get engine stopping power. I only tap my hydraulic breaks when i really need to, like unexpected situation, but besides that 99% of the time i use regen break
Ordered my Phantom v2 60V and am waiting impatiently for its arrival 😎
Just ordered my Phantom V2 can’t wait!!!
I'm glad you filmed in science world and English Bay! It's so beautiful 😆 also I just ordered city pro 2022! Can't wait
The amount of scooters I would ever recommend to anyone is severely limited because idiotic scooter manufacturers don't waterproof them. These are commuting machines, you never have to worry about if your car is waterproof or not it should be the same with scooters. I live in ireland where it rains, every single day except for 9 days a year on average. Start waterproofing these because they are currently gaining a lot of popularity but wont as soon as they start breaking down due to rain. My current scooter, kugoo g1 is completely waterproof
Hey Luke,
Thank you for this feedback and criticism, we do appreciate the insight. We agree that water resistance ratings are an important part of choosing a scooter model, and we've been working hard to improve this on our newer models like the City 2022 and upcoming Apollo Pro!
Bought the explore am loving it. So far a few days but has saved alot
This Topic Is Right On Time. I just Email Apollo about Battery Life and Charging your Scooter, So It's Good to Know I'm not alone. Good to Know I'm Not doing anything Wrong. Except Go to Fast for too Long On My Scooter. 😁👍🏾✌🏾🙏🏾
Do you have a program that automatically capitalizes the first letter of every word or did you manually do this?
@@davejohnson8338 ROFL!
Just ordered my explore 😁
You’ll love the explore! You see it on the first riding shot of the video 😊
@@ApolloScooters tell me difference between hydrolic and macanical brakes
Apollo can you guys please explain fast charging and the right way to use fast chargers with scooters.
can you add an external detachable battery for extended range on future scooters?
Thank you for the feedback! - Randy
Hello,
I have The Ghost. Yesterday I got caught in heavy rain! How serious is this to my scooter?
Reading and following the manufacturers' instructions (yep - RTFM) works just fine.....
good gift
Todo esta perfecto.
One thing I would like cleared up is the process the charging system goes through in total. From flat to full voltage to the balancing process.
There's so much disagreement in the community between the need to balance charge the pack, and degrading the lifespan by fully charging too much.
u only need to balance it once in a while
@@fakemagic105 What does that mean, balance it?
its lithium ion like he stated, not lithium polymer. no need to balance
If you want to waterproof the deck i reccomend using black duct tape and seal every crack and holes for cable pass
Am I tripping, at 00:45 it definitely sounds like you say 90% for the upper limit… But then say 80 every time afterward. Which is it please?
Hi Angelo, yes we misspoke. Sorry about that. It is 25-80%, as Sean repeats in the rest of the video.
Inflatable tires need to be topped up every other month at least. I drain the scooter all the way down to 40% in winter for storage.
Almost every time I go on dirt roads on my Phantom I get a flat tire.
The worst mistake is going down a long steep hill with a single rear brake
Is it legal to use scooter in Montreal?
Bike lanes are usually ok. Sidewalks at slower speeds usually ok. However you should still check you’re local laws, simply google it for your area. 👍
Yes, but there's limitations (can't go above 20km, need to go in the street/bike lane, need lights at the front and back: back light must be automatic light when braking, need to wear a helmet, cannot go outside of Montréal and Westmount).
Can I really not go down a curb with a scooter?!
i go down stairs with my kugoo g1 lol, shits built like an actual tank
The video is of good quality, however titling basic mistakes as, "unforgivable," is a bit much. Feels disconnected from your audience. Perhaps, "Top 5 Scooter Tips For All Of Us"
Yall make some customer service unforgivable mistakes
apollo is making me pay $500 for a fix/return on a malfunctioning scooter that arrived to me. The support is awful. I should not be paying $500 for a scooter that was delivered to me broken.
Hi Kestia, Randy here.
If a scooter arrived broken we would never charge you for it. There is clearly a misunderstanding. Please send our CS team and email and mention you spoke with me. I will be sure we get to the bottom of this!
I think I am just gonna wait til we have better battery tech, all these do's and don'ts are way too overwhelming, especially for such an expensive device like a scooter
It's not unthinkable to be at work, it begins to rain, and you have to ride home. You make people feel stupid for asking about water resistance. Not cool.
Stop crying about riding in the rain and just build a waterproof scooter.
Fact is, it rains if you're lucky, because no rain = no water, an no water = no life.
I get it, there is a higher manufacturing cost to build waterproof scooters, but it's time to stop with the whole "don't ride in the rain" BS. Rain happens, make a suitable product happen.
Lots of scooters are rated for rain?
Apollos scooter in the video is iP56 or so.
For the longest time fully waterproof electric scooters have been one of the most sought after features in the scooter community. We have been listening!
The Apollo City 2022 is rated IP56 meaning it can withstand high pressure water jets from any direction. And we hope in the near future to have a fully waterproof scooter available for our riders without an increase in cost.
Best,
Randy
@@archlocker Who you working for? I saw your name in different comment sections trying to defend this scooter to death. Please, Stop doing that. Let people express their feeling.
There's not 1 manufacturer that makes a waterproof scooter. You're chasing unicorns in a land full of leprechauns my man.
@@dont3222 do I not have the right to express myself aswell?
I do my absolute best to be informative and polite. Just want to be part of the conversation.
Unforgivable mistake is OVERPRICED Apollo scooters. They are not very special and don't really offer anything new. They are simple city Scooters. Some of us are not stupid and we own multiple $2k-$4k Scooters like Kaabo, Dualtrons etc etc
Wow, this came off incredibly uneducated…
They are all VERY different scooter manufactures compared to each other.
This brand might not be your style, keep it to your self, and just be kind to everyone else who doesn’t like a ‘pimped out bling mobile’ scooter from dualtron etc.
@@archlocker
APOLLO IS WAY OVERPRICED.
Period 💯
Lol 😂 overpriced!
You are not a very detail oriented person.
@@bakunawa534 Imagine bitching about the price of an e-scooter in the first place. I would suggest getting off your high horse, getting a better job, because it’s clear you live paycheque to paycheque.
