Motors and specifications
The XP9 uses two 150 W motors and a 25.2 V, 4.0 Ah battery. Its smaller 6.5-inch wheels keep the hoverboard compact and are best suited to smoother surfaces.
Maximum speed figures differ: the manufacturer lists 12 km/h, while some listings mention 15 km/h. Before choosing, check the limit for the specific device.
Child mode and safety features
The manufacturer recommends the XP9 for children aged 6 to 14. The hoverboard has a child mode, sensors, speed alerts and shock absorption. An alert can help a rider notice when they are travelling too fast, but it cannot prevent a fall on its own.
Children should wear a helmet and protective pads and ride under adult supervision. A flat area away from traffic is a suitable place to learn the controls. LED lights in the wheels and around the board may help with visibility, but they are no substitute for choosing a safe place and suitable riding conditions.
Hoverkart: riding seated
The package includes a kart seat that attaches to the hoverboard. With the hoverkart fitted, the child sits down and controls the device using levers. This offers a different riding position and way of steering from standing on the board.
The hoverkart has an adjustable frame, a swivelling front wheel and fastening straps. The frame can be adjusted to fit the child; check that it is securely attached to the hoverboard before each ride.
App, music and design
The XP9 has a Bluetooth speaker and supports connection to a mobile app for music control. The app can also be used to monitor safety parameters, such as child mode settings and speed alerts.
The LED lights in the wheels and around the board are also a prominent design feature. Listed colour options include black, blue, pink and hip hop.
