However, you can stay tuned by keeping an eye on our blog – there we publish the latest essential information related to e-scooter legality in the UK.

Generally, a rating of 5 or higher indicates good water resistance – models carrying this rating can usually be ridden in the rain.
Currently, you can find wet weather-ready rating of IP65 featured in our own Eagle Scooter range.
Remember: it's always worth checking that the model's warranty also covers water resistance to the IP rating standard. This is a good sign of the manufacturer's confidence in the quality of its products and ensures that you'll be covered if something goes wrong.

If you are using your e-scooter every day we recommend checking it over once a week. Ensure that the tyre pressures are correct, there are no signs of excess wear and tear on key components and that all screws and bolts are securely fastened according to any instructions.
Regular charging is better for overall battery health and will help to increase the lifespan of the battery.
For the life of the battery before it needs replacing: Most batteries in e-scooters are lithium ion-based. This is the same basic technology as used in contemporary phones and laptops. They have a long lifespan and do not suffer from 'battery memory'.
As a guide, most lithium ion batteries will last for 1,000 charge cycles before you see a noticeable drop off in performance. This will change based on the manufacturer and quality of the cells in the battery, how you are using it and whether you are using good practices to extend the battery health.
Many e-scooters have an 'eco' mode that will significantly reduce the performance of the e-scooter, but save battery life in the process. Please check to see if your e-scooter is in this mode. If so, consult the user manual for details on how to change it to a more powerful setting.
If your e-scooter has air-filled tyres, please ensure that all tyres are inflated to the correct pressures. The pressures can often be found on the sidewall of the tyre or in the user manual.
If your e-scooter is continually going slow, there could be a fault, or the e-scooter may simply not be the right one for you. If this is the case, please contact support@eaglescooters.co.uk and our staff will look to resolve this for you.
For example, if the e-scooter is running for prolonged periods, at high speed, up hills or at colder temperatures, you're likely to see the battery cells drop. Once the battery has been rested, the cells should start to increase again.
Please rest assured, as long as the e-scooter has been charged to full capacity (where the light indicator on your charging unit has gone green) your e-scooter will continue to power to its full range.
If your e-scooter is underperforming, the most common reason will be due to having underinflated tyres. If the tyres are low and aren't fully inflated, this causes the e-scooter to work much harder, which will inevitably cause your battery to drain faster. The required pressure can often be found on the sidewall of the tyre or in the user manual.
Being in an 'eco' mode will also have an impact on the e-scooter's performance. To switch through the modes, simply double tap the power button. You should then notice a difference. Further to this, we also advise charging your e-scooter to full capacity before any journey. This will be shown when the indicator on your charging unit turns green.
It is also worth noting that the temperature will affect battery performance, so in colder conditions over winter, you may find that the range is lower than usual. This is down to the chemical makeup of the batteries and performance should return to normal once the temperature rises once again.
One of the best things you can do to avoid punctures is ensure the tyre pressures are regularly checked and maintained at the manufacturers recommended level. You can usually find the required pressures stamped on the sidewall of the tyres. Keeping them topped up will make it harder for sharp objects to enter the tyre, prevent pinch flats and allow puncture prevention fluid (if you have it installed) to work at its best.
Punctures and flat tyres (even those filled with puncture prevention fluid) are not covered by returns or warranty as they are considered 'consumable' parts which can be prone to wear and tear over time.
In most cases, simply pushing the grip back down and applying a firm pressure is enough to put it back to where it should be.
Alternatively, a small amount of glue is enough to help it stick. Doing this yourself will not void your warranty.
Eagle Scooters include a 12-month warranty against original defects in material and workmanship from the date of receipt. This covers the cost of labour and parts required to maintain your e-scooter in proper working order for the 12 month warranty period.
If you are still unsure, please contact support@eaglescooters.co.uk and one of our customer advisors will be able to help you.
