I bought a "reconditioned" one of these from the company. I came a week and a half ago. This unit never powered on, and had parts broken lying loose in the box. I emailed them right away. They first asked for a video of the broken parts, and a few days later asked for a video of the screen. I provided them with both right away, but have not heard back. I called their phone and got a voicemail. So far I would not recommend this product. The electrical connections are in the handlebars, and did not line up when I put them on. I've been doing appliance and machinery repairs for a living for 35 years. I watched all the videos before starting to assemble. I have 4 scooters, 3 Ebikes, and 4 hoverboards. This is a bad as I gets so far. I'll update if they respond or anything.

Any updates? I contacted turboant after a faulty spare battery that was within warranty and they wouldn't honor or replace it saying there's just some factors they can't control and listing possible mistreatment points on my part which I said I did not do(stored in wet or hot conditions). Terrible customer service. Ga e me the run around and like emailing a robot

@@batmangsxr300 After more than two months, and having to repackage and return the scooter the first time, the scooter arrived today, and I can say unequivocally that this scooter is a complete and utter waste of money, and can only work on completely flat or downhill surfaces. My other scooter is a Glion Dolly, and has a 350 watt motor. This scooter weighs twice as much, and has about 1/2 the power even though it's supposed to be a 450 watt motor. I'm done with this company.

Never get a refurbished anything. I learned that from getting refurbished phone years ago.

In florida, you are going to want solid tires. The sidewalks are atrocious.

This or the x7? I'm 6 ft, 245 will either be good for me? Live in a completely flat area, any advice would be greatly appreciated

24 days after I started using my V8 the front inner tube got a leak. I replaced it with the provided spare inner tube. Two days later that one leaked. I then ordered the Honeycomb tires to replace them. However, 22 days after I starting using my V8 I began having issues with the floorboard battery. It isn't working at all. Currently in talks with TurboAnt customer service trying to resolve this. This scooter isn't cheap in cost. Also, in about 20 days of riding, the front tire ONLY, went bald. Now, I commute an average of 15 miles / 24 km a day, six days a week. This is a commuter scooter, isn't it? Tire shouldn't have gone bald. Otherwise, when both batteries are operating properly I have no issue with having enough charge to make my daily commute. I also have the X7 Pro and it seems simpler may be better. I had less issues with the X7 Pro, but "upgraded" to the V8 for dual batteries. This is just my situation and it may just be my luck.

Thank you, Ryan Reynolds.

Where's the p Settings on the V8?

It is not a good quality scooter. This reviewer hasn't ridden enough. Make another video showing your condition of your V8 after 4 months
