Provided is an electric scooter with a solar rechargeable battery and light chasing capability. In some embodiments, the electric scooter comprises a frame; a deck assembly attached to the frame and comprising: an upper surface, a solar panel on the upper surface of the deck, and a battery pack electrically connected to the solar panel; an electric motor electrically connected to the battery pack; one or more light sensors; and a control circuit configured to: receive data collected by the one or more light sensors; and in response to the data indicating light being detected, identify a direction towards the light.

An electric bicycle having an improved effect of heat dissipation has a body, a driving device, and a battery. The body has a frame, a rear wheel, and a front wheel, wherein the rear wheel and the front wheel are mounted to the frame. The driving device is mounted to the body and has a motor and a shell. The motor is connected with the frame and has a front end near the front wheel and a rear end near the rear wheel. The shell covers the motor and has multiple inlets and multiple outlets disposed therethrough. The multiple inlets are located near the front end of the motor. The multiple outlets are located near the rear end of the motor. The battery is electrically connected to the motor. The front wheel, the battery, the motor, and the rear wheel are serially aligned.

This disclosure generally relates to a rechargeable battery for electric vehicles. The rechargeable battery may include a housing that includes a first temperature sensor to sense a first temperature of a first power connection terminal of the rechargeable battery and a second temperature sensor within the housing to sense a second temperature of a second power connection terminal of the rechargeable battery. The rechargeable battery may also include a battery management system located within the housing, where the battery management system causes a reduction in an amount of current through at least one of the first power connection terminal or the second power connection terminal when a temperature associated with at least one of the first power connection terminal or the second power connection terminal exceeds a threshold.

A seat post assembly for a bicycle has a first tube with a first distal end and a second tube with a second distal end. The first and second tubes are movable relative to one another to establish a distance between the first and second distal ends. A first pressure chamber has a loaded pressure proportional to a load applied along the tube axis. A second pressure chamber has a second pressure not proportional to the load. A flow path connects the first and second pressure chambers. A valve is disposed along the flow path and is configured to move between a closed position closing the flow path and an open position opening the flow path between the first and second pressure chambers. An isolator of the valve is configured to nullify any resultant force produced by the loaded pressure of the first pressure chamber acting on the isolator.

Various powered mobility systems, such as scooters and wheeled boards, are disclosed. The powered mobility system can be a drive assembly, which can include a motor, transmission assembly, driving wheel, and power supply. The drive assembly can be detachable from the rest of the personal mobility vehicle.
