MAJOR UPDATE
Kiwano has removed the UL 2272 certification information from their website, read about it HERE.
Before anything else, just have a look at the Kiwano Hoverboard. When we saw it for the first time, our jaws fell open. They are claiming it to be the ‘Jeep’ of hoverboards and it sure looks like one helluva two wheel hoverboard.
And here is another look at the Kiwano hoverboard:
The biggest point first – it is UL 2272 certified.
UPDATE: Kiwano has removed UL 2272 information, read about it here.
That means it has passed the UL standards tests, it is approved by the Consumer Products Safety Commission, the CPSC, and additionally, it also does not infringe on any patents of Segway. The US Govt. has in effect approved this hoverboard as a safe and high quality piece of equipment for personal transportation and loads and loads of fun.
Now the second biggest point – you can ride it on the beach. Yep, it’s an all-terrain hoverboard with big all-terrain tires with alloy rims. This one is bad ass and it looks ultra cool.
The third point is that because of a license agreement with the holder of the hoverboard patent Shane Chen, the Kiwano hoverboard does not infringe upon any patents.
It was designed by Juan Contreras, a former Vapor Shark engineer who lives in Miami. He wanted a hoverboard that he could comfortably use on the sandy beaches of Miami, and so he decided to actually design one. What came out was the Kiwano, and it sure doesn’t disappoint.
It is a pleasure to see the Kiwano hoverboard as it takes on the rough with the smooth. Here is the official launch video:
The Kiwano self balancing scooter has a lot of things going for it. Their biggest selling point is safety. They are calling the Kiwano Hoverboard the ‘Most advanced and Safest Electric Scooter’. The claim is backed by a tie up with Samsung for the batteries and main electrical components, a detachable battery, and most important of all the UL 2272 certification. Contreras said that the Kiwano has Samsung’s 18650 lithium Ion battery cell and Samsung circuitry.
Let’s have a closer look at the different things that make the Kiwano hoverboard the ‘Jeep’ amongst hoverboards.
You can ride it over all kinds of terrain, and even on a sandy beach. This is thanks to its all-terrain shock absorbent tires and the power in its motors.
The Kiwano scooter comes with Bluetooth connectivity with the Kiwano App available in the Google Play Store and the App Store. The App also allows you to locate the Kiwano on Google maps and also map out routes. Importantly the App allows you to put the Kiwano scooter on a beginner, normal or advanced mode. This makes it suitable for children to ride.
It has speakers on the underside that will play your music wirelessly through your smartphone.
The makers of Kiwano have partnered with Samsung for the battery and the main electrical components to ensure absolute safety. Also the battery is detachable. This goes a long way in making the Kiwano hoverboard safe, as also does the UL 2272 certification.
The raised cool looking safety guards are made of an aircraft grade aluminum alloy.
The LED lights of the Kiwano hoverboard come as integrated headlights and brake lights.
It is also water resistant, and is IP 56 certified for water resistance. This makes it not just an all-terrain hoverboard, but also an all-weather hoverboard.
If you want to know the exact size specifications of the Kiwano hoverboard, here they are:
The Kiwano scooter also comes with an optional cool looking bag. This smart branded bag will let you strap the hoverboard around your shoulder or carry it normally by the strap.
Not a really important point, yet still an indication of the level of detailing, the packaging also looks quite nice. Have a look:
The Kiwano hoverboard soft launched in February, and launched just yesterday, that is 21st March 2016. They have 2 day 50% discount which will be over in less than a day from the time this article was being written, so if you want to pick it up at a really low launch price head over now – www.kiwano.co
Update 27th April 2016 – The discounted price is still there and looks like it will remain for some time, so go for it, if you’re planning buy the Kiwano!
Many of you aren’t fully convinced about the Kiwano, its UL 2272 status or how long actual delivery will take after you place an order. Since we don’t have precise answers to your questions, we can only make a suggestion that if you want a safe and reliable hoverboard to be delivered quickly (Swagway hoverboards are shipped from a US location), then check out the original Swagway X1 hoverboard. They are offering FREE shipping within 1 to 5 days anywhere in the US, right now, and all of their hoverboards come with a standard 1-year warranty. You might consider heading over to the Swagway website to check out if you like something there. – 8th April, 2016
At Best Hoverboard Brands, we are happy that the hoverboard market in the United States is moving towards a better and safer hoverboard that will soon become the standard. Keep hoverboarding people, it’s the most fun thing to do since 2015.
