The Rover scooter we sell on the backfireboards website is our first scooter product; only 100 units are available, and they will be discontinued after they are sold out. We will keep 6-year warranty accessories.
All Backfire scooters will be sold on this offical scooterwebsite, here is the link : https://www.backfirescooter.com
Specs & Functions
1. What PSl level should l keep the tires inflated at?
• We recommend inflating its tires to 31.9-34.8 psi (220-240 kPa)
2. What will affect the e-scooter range?
• The actual range depends on a variety of factors such as battery status, tire pressure , load, temperature, wind speed, road conditions and riding habits
• Temperatures above 50 degrees Celsius (120 degrees Fahrenheit) or below -5 degrees Celsius (25 degrees Fahrenheit) will shorten the range.
• Frequent rapid acceleration and braking will significantly reduce the range.
• Maintaining a sustained high speed above 40 km/h will significantly reduce the range.
• Continuous uphill driving will drastically reduce the range.
• Therefore, in our tests, we had riders use weights such as backpacks and clothing to achieve 60 kg 130 lbs, 70 kg 155 lbs, 80 kg 180 lbs, 90 kg 200 lbs, and 100 kg 220 lbs. The following real-world data was obtained under conditions of 20 degrees Celsius (70 degrees Fahrenheit), on a flat road, at a constant speed of 30 km/h (18.5 mph) with minimal braking. This data is provided for your reference.
- 60Kg / 130Lbs - 71km / 44miles
- 70kg / 155lbs - 59km / 36.5miles
- 80kg / 180lbs - 53km / 33miles
- 90kg / 200lbs - 48km / 30miles
- 100kg / 220lbs - 45km / 28miles
3.What is the maximum user weight?
• M8 Rover has a maximum load capacity of 330lbs（150kg）
• 100kg（220lbs）or below would be the best-case scenario for riding.
• A heavy loaded scooter will lessen your range and average speed. You could take it into consideration.
4.What is the longevity of the battery? Would it lasts a couple of years before having to replace?
- Unlike most scooters on the market, we insist on equipping our scooters with high-quality Samsung battery cells because we believe that high-quality cells determine the performance of the battery pack itself. Thanks to the use of more stable Samsung battery cells, our battery can still maintain 80% of its original range after 500 charge-discharge cycles. If you charge it about once every three days, your battery range will decrease to about 80% of its original capacity after about 4 years.
5.How do I configure speed, assist mode, and units on the M8 Rover?
- To adjust the maximum speed, enable push-to-start, or switch between kilometers and miles (KPH/MPH), simply download the UNI SCOOTER app on your Android or iOS device. Once connected to your M8 Rover via Bluetooth, you can access all settings directly in the app.
Riding & Maintenance
1. Can I ride the M8 Rover in the rain?
- M8 Rover scooter is built with water-resistant materials to protect against daily splashes. However, we do not recommend riding in rainy conditions, as it may pose safety risks. At Backfire, rider safety is our top priority—after all, this is an electric scooter.
2. Does Backfire offer warranty support?
- You can find our phone number, email address, and other contact information on the contact page of our website. We will contact you as soon as possible and provide service through our after-sales network in the United States, Canada, Australia, and the European Union.
3.Does battery level affect the scooter’s top speed?
- Yes. As the battery drains and voltage drops, the maximum speed will gradually decrease.
4.What safety precautions should I take when riding the M8 Rover?
- Always wear a helmet, check local weather conditions, stay alert to road hazards, and don’t forget to lock your scooter after riding.
5.Can I leave the scooter charging for overnight?
• M8 rover have a dedicated BMS for charge and discharge but We still don’t recommend charging the electric scooter for longer than 24 hours.
