ezip750 Electric Scooter

ezip750 Electric Scooter

Before I start with the review, I would like people to know that this fantastic piece of technology has added so much more fun into my family!  I am very grateful to have received this wonderful product.

Alright, I am sure we have all seen someone cruising around the neighborhood on one of those electric or gas powered scooters…right? And we all say that we would like to do something that is better for the environment.  So why not get yourself one of those fun scooters, and at the same time do something good for the environment.  How is this possible you ask? Well, all you have to do is get yourself a e-Zip 750 electric scooter from Currie Technologies.  The key word is “electric”.  With this extremely fun and even more useful human transport vehicle…aka scooter.  you will save yourself alot of gas money and help the environment all while having a blast doing it!!!

You could easily go to your closest toy store and pick up some kind of electric scooter, but you are getting just that…a toy.  How reliable is a toy?  Would you take the chance of relying on a toy to get you to and from work?  I sure wouldn’t!  Well you don’t have to worry about that with the e-Zip 750 or any model form the Currie line-up for that matter.  these machines are very well built and impressively reliable.

So I get this thing in the mail, and I am like a kid on Christmas morning!  It was so exciting to be opening such a super cool product.  I could barely contain myself.  And to top it off there is barely any assembly required (at least not for me).  All I had to do is pop the seat in place and attach the front wheel and you are ready to roll.  So right out of the box, setup is a snap!

Instantly you can see the quality and care that go into these vehicles.  To my dismay, after riding for a bit, I was having some issues with the back tire.  So i contacted the company and with no hesitation they sent me out a new tire and inner tube, no questions asked.  Now that is what I like to call customer service!  I was extremely impressed by the personal attention that goes into their customer satisfaction.  I get the feeling that they will stop at nothing to ensure the happiness of their customers.  For a company to have that trait in today;s day and age is very hard to come by.

So in order to make this scooter so much fun and so environmentally friendly, there is a very impressive combo of quality parts and technology involved! The specs change from model to model obviously, the the 750 is 750 watts of power being conducted by an alloy DC Earth Magnet motor.  They really went the extra mile to make sure that each part of these great machines are safe for mother earth!  The included rechargeable EV rated sealed lead acid (SLA) plug and play battery will get you an average of about 10-12 miles of solid juice.  When ever I get the chance I ride mine to work and then I just plug it in right in my office and presto I have more than enough power to get me home.  The battery takes about 8-10 hours to fully charge.  The actual charging system is the UL Listed Currie Smart charger with LED status display.  Right next to the throttle there is a small box which shows you low, medium, and full charge status, which really comes in handy when you need to check how much juice is left for you to get where ever you need to go.  I’m still trying to figure out what the average mileage is after the LEDs change color. ( However that may be impossible to judge because the power supply is going to be determined by how much weight is on the scooter and what the terrain is like as well).  The controller is exclusive Currie PWM Smart Power microprocessor, with auto shut-off, relay projection and battery indicating throttle…Just twist and GO!!!

Like I said before, the top speed is going to depend on the weight and terrain. Because of the top speed, you will obviously have to plan ahead and leave much earlier than normal to get to your point of destination, but isn’t that worth it considering the amount of money you are saving on gas and the good you are doing for the world around you.  Even if you can’t use this machine to commute to and from work, just going back and forth to the corner store or just to go from point A to point B around the neighborhood will save you a ton of money over time, and you wont even notice the money…because you are gong to be having way too much fun.

Like I mentioned before, you can absolutely tell that there is alot of quality control that goes into these lovely machines.  They use 5 spoke alloy wheels, which are very tough looking to begin with.  The tires are Innova low profile street slick tires with Tuff Tire Technology, which reduces the chances of flattening.  The drive train is the patented Currie Electro Chain Drive.  I don’t know what all that means but I do know it runs smooth and it’s very quiet.  So all of these quality parts but what about the frame?  Well, it’s a one piece frame made of high tensile steel, which is extremely heavy duty!  The deck is nice and wide. I can fit both feet on it at once which makes for a much more comfortable ride.  Along with the soft gel seat and spacious foot deck they included a front suspension system for an even more smooth ride.  Now don’t get me wrong, it’s not like your floating on air by any means, you can absolutely feel each bump in the road, but with the technology that went into each nut and bolt that this thing is made from, you truly get the best ride of any scooter out there.  At least in my opinion you do!

Another reason I love the e-Zip 750 so much is because transporting it is very simple.  It only weighs about 60lbs. and the handlebars fold down and the seat comes right off.  So tossing it in a trunk is no problem at all.  I actually bring mine almost everywhere.  And you will too… once you get yours you will never want to put it away…I promise.

So is the e-Zip 750 a good fit for everyone?  Yeah, actually it is.  There really is no reason one of the ingenious creations from http://www.currietech.com will not benefit you in at least one way.  Even if that one way is just giving you a new sense of enjoyment and freedom. And a new found love for the open road…oh wait I mean open sidewalk :)  When  you check out their site you will find some of the best of the best when it comes to electric scooters and electric bikes.  They even have conversion kits that allow you to convert your ordinary bike into an electric vehicle.

I have to say that my e-Zip 750 has added so much enjoyment to my house. My whole family loves this thing.  Me because of the money I save, my wife because of the whole saving the earth thing, and my son just thinks its the coolest thing he has ever seen.  If I would have known how much joy one of these would bring to my family, then I would have gotten one a very long time ago.  With one of these scooters, you are opening up so many more activities for you and your family to do over the summer. At a range of just under $300 and up to a few thousand dollars per vehicle, there is no reason to not grab a few of these for the kids as well.  They are just plain fun and they will pay for themselves alot faster than you think.  So what are you waiting for? … Lets Ride!
