If you want your child to enjoy more outside and get some fresh air then you could buy him an electric scooter. Riding will boost his mood and happily he will do his other essential kinds of stuff. Actually, e-scooters are high in demand among both children and adults. Children are using it for fun whereas adults are bringing it in use for going to an office or taking a morning walk. When you are planning to buy one for your kid, you need to pay attention to a variety of factors including performance, design, and load capacity.
Electric Scooter for Adults
Adult electric scooters are the most common type of scooters. They have a larger weight capacity than children’s one, typically around 220 lbs. approximately 100 kg. Apart from that, they come with a more powerful motor, longer battery backup, larger deck, and a taller stem.
A typical adult scooter weighs under 15 kg, fitted with a 36-volt battery and 350Watt motor which propels the max speed 25 km/hour.
Scooter for Kids
Kids scooters are specifically downsized versions of adult ones. They are smaller, lighter and less expensive. You will likely find small motors, batteries, wheels, decks, and stems. When you gift this item to your child, make sure he uses it as a toy and will not ride it on the public road.
A typical kid scooter weighs under 10 kg, is fitted with a less powered battery, and attains a maximum speed of 15 to 16 KM. Due to its lighter weight, and less loading capacity, the adult should use it.
Things to consider while buying
Electric scooters have many different parts but the things which you need to pay attention to are-
Batteries, Brakes, Controller, handlebars, lights, motor, stem, and tires.
Battery: It is one of the most important features to look for when you are going to buy. It is like a gas tank and stores the energy which is later consumed by scooters. Battery capacity determines up to how much distance you can take a ride with your scooter. Generally, a battery capacity of 36 V is considered ideal and it can take up to 30 Km of distance.
