Hoverboard Safety Measures: Why Smart Balance Shops is the Safe Choice

We, at Smart Balance Shops, take pride in offering our customers the safest hoverboards on the market. Our top priority is ensuring our clients have safe rides, and we achieve this through a range of safety measures built into our hoverboards. Here are some of the safety measures we have taken to guarantee our customers' safety:

Hoverboards that do not deform due to their reinforced aluminum frames. 

The frame of our hoverboards is made of reinforced aluminum in key points of user support, unlike other hoverboards that are made of plastic. This ensures the hoverboard does not deform due to impacts caused by the user when falling or hitting the board against curbs. Additionally, on slightly rough terrain, stress on the plastic frame causes deformation over time, causing the hoverboard to lose balance and shift its center of gravity, making it more difficult and dangerous for the user to handle.

 Aluminum Wheels that do not deform. 

Our hoverboards have wheels with frames made of aluminum and protective shells for the metal motor, unlike most wheel frames made of plastic without protective shells for the motor. This ensures the wheels do not deform over time, making maneuvering dangerous.

3.      Hoverboard will not catch fire due to its batteries with protective shells.

Our batteries have a protective shell made of flame-retardant material in case of non-compliant operation. This ensures the hoverboard will not catch fire or explode, thus preventing injuries or burns to the user. Our batteries also have safety measures against variable voltage and overcharging, ensuring that the wheel will not suddenly stop, so it cannot cause the user to fall. The battery cells also have ventilation perforations, preventing overheating during extended use.

4.      Easy to keep balance thanks to a high-tech motherboard with patented auto-balance firmware.

Our hoverboards have a high-tech motherboard with a gyroscopic and patented auto-balance firmware, making them SUPER EASY to maneuver. The active part of the technology helps even beginners keep their balance, ensuring that the hoverboard maintains its balance automatically once turned on. Our motherboard also has a firmware function that limits maximum acceleration, resulting in a smoother ride without jerks or sudden reactions from the hoverboard, regardless of the user's sudden reactions.

5.      Hoverboard packages with seats for young children

For young children aged 4-8 years old, we recommend hoverboard packages with a seat, which removes the active balance component from the equation of a successful hoverboard ride and minimizes accidents. We have a range of packages at reasonable prices, including regular ergonomic seats, comfortable seats padded with soft foam, and top-of-the-line packages consisting of a hoverkart or a seat with double active suspension, which makes the ride more comfortable and can also be used on off-road hoverboards.

6.      Range of hoverboards for different terrains

We do not recommend riding hoverboards on uneven terrain. However, we have a complete range of hoverboards, from asphalt hoverboards (regular, transformers 6.5, transformers 8, hummer) to all-terrain hoverboards or even off-road. We also have hoverboards with seats for asphalt and off-road use.

7.      Avoid riding in the rain or on wet surfaces.

We do not recommend riding in the rain or on wet surfaces, as the product can malfunction during use. There is no waterproof hoverboard.

8.      Safety guidelines for riding hoverboards

We provide safety guidelines for riding hoverboards, including not riding on uneven terrain, not riding in the rain or on wet surfaces, and recommending the use of protective gear such as helmets, knee pads, and elbow pads. We also recommend that any user under the age of 16 be supervised by adults when riding and that hoverboards without seats should only be used by users weighing at least 25 kg and/or at least 8 years old. Finally, we remind our customers that it is strictly forbidden to ride hoverboards on the road.

9.      Listening to music in headphones

Listening to music with headphones while riding a hoverboard is not recommended for several reasons. First, it can distract the rider from their surroundings, making them unaware of any potential hazards or obstacles. Second, wearing headphones can block out important sounds, such as oncoming traffic or pedestrians, which can lead to accidents. Finally, wearing headphones can also prevent the rider from hearing any warnings or signals from others, such as someone shouting to get their attention. For these reasons, it is safer to use the built-in bluetooth speakers on the hoverboard to listen to music or simply enjoy the ride without any distractions.

Conclusion

At Smart Balance Shops, we take safety very seriously. We have invested in the latest technology and materials to ensure that our hoverboards are safe for everyone to ride. By following our safety guidelines, we believe that our customers can enjoy the benefits of hoverboards without the risk of accidents or injuries.
