World’s lightest electric scooter 800W

Posted: August 7th, 2010 | Author: admin | Filed under: Electric Scooter | Tags: , , , , | 25 Comments »


Brushless outrunner powered Razor scooter. 800W Rc aircraft motor, with 100A esc, 8:1 planetary gear reduction. This scooter weighs less than 10lbs without batteries, the motor on my 500W scooter weighs more than this. Motor is also highly efficient at all speeds unlike conventional e scooter motors. The noise is from the gearbox taken from a cordless power tool, the motor is very quiet. Scooter powered by 2 lead acid batteries in backpack which weigh 4.5kg each. hoping to add a battery box soon and fit ni-cd or li-po batteries when i can get some cheap. for more info visit www.evalbum.com for more info. thanks to slofly for the inspiration to build it.

    Please post new video where you are driving on 200×50 tire scooter!
    1Q: Can you do burnout?

    The scooter in the video was very unstable, the motor is now fitted to a larger scooter with inflatable tyres. if you want a small extremely powerful scooter you would be better off buying a tiny 100w scooter from ebay and fitting a brushless motor on it you could use the existing belt drive and be much quieter.

    If you changed the gearing do you think you’d get much of a top speed improvement?

    Yes but the main problem with gas is that they are not legal within most cities. I have a 500w electric, legal on the road or sidewalk here.

  14. 14 chairdrule1234 said at 4:13 pm on August 7th, 2010:

  15. 15 MTBbikes said at 5:02 pm on August 7th, 2010:

  16. 16 jbquintet said at 5:36 pm on August 7th, 2010:

    u recon a 250w would work?

  17. 17 2605830 said at 5:55 pm on August 7th, 2010:

  18. 18 marineofuac said at 6:26 pm on August 7th, 2010:

    shoot im planning on buying a big engine from northerntools(dot)com

    That is really a kool scooter! But, I like gas scooters better, because you never need to charge them! But, I have to say, I had that exact scooter, and it worked perfectly! About 15 MPH. But I would recommend this scooter to a begginer “scooterist”. Gas scooters CAN BE DANGEROUS! So, watch out!

    damn… that looks awesome

  21. 21 livelounge106 said at 7:03 pm on August 7th, 2010:

    Unfortunately there is no parts list as this was a one off, this was built to show the amazing power of the tiny motor, check the web address in the description for pictures and more detailed info.

  22. 22 PoisonPatric said at 7:05 pm on August 7th, 2010:

    is there like a guide and parts list for this?

  23. 23 hassmann2000 said at 7:59 pm on August 7th, 2010:

    that is awesome. one of those would make my commute to the station rather fun.

    0:10 – 0:25 wow… thats up a hill too!

    On the little scooter i was using 2 12v 12Ah lead acid, good for about 30mins riding, as for the motor, when put on the larger scooter it began to get hot, so i fitted a fan to cool it. The main thing to watch is the esc, i destroyed two of these due to overheating. the one i’m using now has the casing removed and a pc cpu heatsink and fan fitted, now it dosent even get warm. 800w is not the biggest motor out there, you will find 6kW,(6000w) if you look for them.
