In my opinion method 2 is the clear winner, as it frees the scooter from its Xiaomi-imposed leash and greatly expands your battery choices. You do lose a few features, but I'd hardly call them vital ones.

NET Core v3.1 must be installed for ReFlasher to run. You can get the x64 installer from here or from Microsoft. Könnyű és kényelmes közlekedés a mindennapokhoz. Az Essential 20 km-es hatótávjával a rövid távú ingázás abszolút nem jelent akadályt. A 20 km/h maximális sebesség miatt pedig a fiatalabb és idősebb korosztálynak is ajánljuk.The M365 has good braking ability, coming to a stop from 9.32 km/h in 5.12 m in our tests. This is about average for this type of scooter with a single disc brake. The scooter's battery is located in the base and the frame itself is built from aluminium. It is strong and the simple folding mechanism means it can be folded or unfolded in a few seconds. This sturdiness and low cost (as you are not paying for carbon fibre) does mean it is reasonably heavy at 12 kg (though this is slightly lighter than the M365/1S). But this is as light as mid-range scooters come. One difference from the M365, apart from yellow reflectors on the EU/UK model, is that the external wires are neater in the Xiaomi Essential. They still have not figured out how to feed the wire to the handlebars internally (through the folding joint) but they have at least tried. The scooter arrives almost fully assembled. All you need to do is attach the handlebar to the stem and fasten it with the screws.

While weight limits are usually more like a guideline than a hard and fast rule, I suggest taking this scooter’s weight limit of 100 kg / 220 lbs seriously, as the 250 Watt motor will probably start to choke if someone much heavier than that rides it. If you need a scooter that can carry more than that, see the best electric scooters for heavy adults. The throttle button on the right handlebar is sensitive to user input and doesn’t require too much pressure to get you going. Starting with the positives, the Xiaomi Essential can stop in a very short distance. Of the 10 scooters we tested, this one came to a standstill in the shortest distance (3.7 metres). On average, the scooters took a little over six metres to stop. All three scooters come with the dashboard from the original M365 Pro, meaning they offer a speedometer (alongside a few other symbols) as well as the battery indicator. The modes are the same across the scooters (and slightly different from previous versions). They all have "Normal", "Pedestrian" and "Sport" modes, but the top of the Normal and Sport mode is less on the Essential (see below).To power on the scooter, simply press the power button. When the scooter is on, holding the power button for 2 seconds powers the scooter off, a single press toggles the light, while a double press changes the speed mode. Also, coming from Xiaomi, the most popular electric scooter brand ever, this scooter is a clear winner for anyone that wants to play it safe and get a scooter that’s tried and tested by millions, from an established top-level manufacturer that guarantees quality in every single unit, and that has tons of satisfied owners to vouch for it.

The user manual is short and clear, so go over it to get familiar with the details of your particular version. Basics, riding, folding The M365 has decent real-world range of 23.5 km and swift acceleration. It’s light enough to carry frequently and compact enough to fit into most places when folded.

While suspension would be appreciated, it's definitely not expected at this price range and would also increase the scooter's weight. The air-filled 21.59 cm tires moderately absorb small bumps in the road, providing decent traction and cornering ability, in spite of having an inflation spec of 50 psi. However, this is not a scooter you'd want to take offroad, as you'll get a good brain massage on rougher terrain. Teljesen feltöltött akkumulátorral, 75 kg-os terheléssel, 30 ° C-on, 70% -os páratartalom mellett, 3. szintű szélsebesség, 50 psi gumiabroncs-nyomás mellett, sík úton, gyalogos üzemmódban 15 km/óra alatti egyenletes sebességnél tesztelték. A tényleges eredmények változhatnak a hőmérséklet, a terhelés, a szélsebesség, az útviszonyok és egyéb tényezők eltérései alapján. The Xiaomi Essential climbs relatively well for its motor power, but compared to more powerful scooters, it can’t be described as a great climber. It will climb the moderate hills well, and it will struggle on the steeper hills, so overall, we can say it is an average climber. Its climb angle is 10° / 17.63%. Battery and charging The Xiaomi Essential really struggles on hills. It can't really even handle modest gradients, and it failed to get up the 12.5% section of our test hill. Once the target board is hooked up to the ST-Link, plug the ST-Link into your computer and select your scooter model, BLE or DRV, and input the additional details. Data such as serial number, mileage, or scooter name can be set arbitrarily and don't have to match the previous settings of your vehicle.
