Once I do, I will update this page accordingly. In the meantime, look at my hoverboard deals page to see the most recent discount hoverboards .
The Leray Self Balancing Scooter is back on Amazon. You might have heard that Amazon had recently pulled all the hoverboards off the market. The X1 from Swagway, the Razor Hovertrax, the hoverboard from Powerboard, and most other brands were removed temporarily.
Yet, all that drama has passed, and they are once more available to buy.

WORKING TOGETHER TO MAKE SAFE HOVERBOARDS



















UNDERWRITER’S LABORATORIES
The Underwriters Laboratories (UL) has recently introduced a protection standard it has dubbed UL 2272. The standard is supposed to address the dangers caused by hoverboards, and vendors have implemented adequate protections for riders.
 













MANUFACTURER’S
It is designed to support the manufacturers and retailers by evaluating and certifying hoverboards electric drive train systems, batteries, chargers, basically the entire electrical system.

Hoverboard Troubleshooting: Diagnose Flashing Lights

http://www.scooterera.com/wp-content/uploads/how-do-i-fix-red-flashing-lights-on-hoverboard-1200x628.jpg

Hoverboard Troubleshooting: Diagnose Flashing Lights





WHAT’S WRONG WITH MY HOVERBOARD? IT’S LIGHTS KEEP FLASHING
Do the lights on your hoverboard keep flashing at you? Do the LEDs blink whenever you turn on your hoverboard? Maybe it was working fine, and then after a quick stop you went to turn it on, and now the lights keep turning on and off?
Sound familiar? It’s like the Red Ring of Death wanted to go for a hoverboard ride with you.
Don’t worry, though; there’s some easy troubleshooting that can be done, and most likely you’ll be able to fix the issue yourself.
First, you need to try recalibrating your hoverboard. This should become your first step whenever it starts acting weird.







HOW TO CALIBRATE A HOVERBOARD

Power off your hoverboard and place it on the ground in a level spot.
Press and hold the power button for 10 seconds. After 10 seconds let go of the power.
Try turning on your hoverboard.

When you turn the power on there, the LED lights will flash in a particular pattern. That will let you know the next steps that you need to do.






HERE’S WHAT THE LIGHTS MEAN:
THE LED FLASHES ONCE:
There’s a loose cable or connection inside the scooter. Find a comfortable area to work on your hoverboard. You’ll need a Phillips screwdriver. There should be 18 screws holes on the bottom of the scooter that you’ll need to undo. Be careful when you open it up, some models have a cable that’s connected to the part you are removing.

Jetson V6 Hoverboard w/ Bluetooth From Target.com

http://www.scooterera.com/wp-content/uploads/review-jetson-v6-hoverboard-bluetooth-speakers-686x630.jpg

Jetson V6 Hoverboard w/ Bluetooth From Target.com


Jetson Electric Hoverboard aka Glyro Hoverboards
It appears that Jetson Electric, which is the name of the company selling the Glyro Turbo hoverboards, is no longer selling hoverboards.  If you visit their site at JetsonElectric dot com, you’ll see a site that hasn’t been updated since 2014. They are now the exclusive brand of hoverboards that Target will be stocking. I’ll update this page as I learn more.
If you’re researching hoverboard brands, you should see my hoverboard comparison review, or for the #1 rated hoverboard, the SwagTron T1 review.
Your Search for a Self-Balancing Scooter With Bluetooth Speakers is Over.
The Features of the Glyro Self Balancing Scooter with Bluetooth Speakers.

The Glyro scooter uses two sensors, along with the wheels to automatically balance itself and the user.
It’s water resistant (not WATER-PROOF) so you can use it in wet conditions. This doesn’t mean that you can take it for a spin in during the next
hurricane. This is not an off-road scooter, so don’t play with it in mud or water.
Recommended for ages 13 and up
There’s a Samsung lithium-ion battery.
Includes Bluetooth speakers that will sync with your phone so you can play your favorite music while riding the Glyro Turbo.

Like the other scooters and hoverboards that are currently available, the Glyro Turbo Scooter is fast and can move in any direction just by changing your balance while riding. It uses an innovative balance system to help minimise the chances of you falling while riding the Glyro.
