🧪 Testing, Tuning & Safety: What to Know After Installing the Edison Evo Kit

So, you’ve installed your Edison Evo Speedmaster 365 Kit — what’s next?

Before hitting the road (or private track), it’s essential to properly test, tune, and configure your upgraded e-scooter. In this post, we’ll walk you through the post-installation process, highlight safety tips, and show you how to get the most out of the Edison Evo system.

🚀 Step 1: First Boot – Let the Scooter Self-Test

After you’ve installed the new controller and display, don’t rush to ride just yet. Here’s what to do first:

✅ Lift the Wheel Off the Ground

When you turn the scooter on for the first time, the system will automatically run a motor calibration. This process checks the motor’s direction and parameters.

🔄 If the Wheel Spins Backward?

No problem — this just means the motor phase wires are mismatched.

To fix it:

Swap the yellow and green motor wires (no soldering needed — just switch the connectors).

Once adjusted, the wheel should rotate forward correctly.

⚙️ Step 2: Configure with the Edison Evo App

The Edison Evo kit comes with its own Android mobile app, which replaces the original factory software. Once installed, you can:

  • 📲 Turn the scooter on/off remotely

  • 🐢 Set custom speed limits (e.g., limit to 25 km/h for street legality)

  • 🚀 Unlock full speed mode (up to 40 km/h) for private use

  • 🎮 Enable cruise control and other ride enhancements

The app is available from the Google Play Store and connects via Bluetooth.

💡 Tip: For safety and compliance, set different profiles for city riding vs. open track sessions.

⚠️ Legal & Safety Warnings

🚫 Legality

Please note: unlocking your scooter’s full speed (e.g., 40 km/h) may violate road safety laws in many countries. We recommend using high-speed modes only on private property, racetracks, or off-road settings.

🔋 Electrical Safety

  • Always disconnect the battery before modifying or adjusting components

  • Check that all wires and connectors are fully secured — loose connections can cause shorts or failures

  • Make sure to reseal the scooter deck after installation to restore water resistance

📈 Real-World Performance

Once properly installed and configured, users have reported:

  • ⚡ Top speed reaching up to 40 km/h (vs. factory cap of 25 km/h)

  • 📲 Full app control for speed, power, and personalization

  • 🧠 More responsive throttle and smoother ride feel thanks to the upgraded controller logic

The tuning kit doesn’t just make your scooter faster — it enhances your overall riding experience by giving you full control over how the machine behaves.

🧩 Final Thoughts

The Edison Evo Kit delivers serious upgrades, but the magic happens after installation — during tuning and testing.

With a few adjustments and safety checks, you can turn your everyday e-scooter into a high-performance, fully customizable ride. Just remember to ride responsibly, stay within legal limits when needed, and enjoy the freedom of your upgraded setup.
