History
here were many instances of units catching fire, with claims that they were responsible for numerous residential fires between late 2015 into 2016. In the United Kingdom, authorities expressed concerns with the boards, regarding possible faulty wiring. Many airlines banned the transportation of the boards, both as stored or carry-on luggage
The U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) launched an investigation into the safety of the device in late 2015 and determined that the lithium-ion battery packs in the self-balancing scooters/hoverboards could overheat and posed a risk of catching fire/exploding and that defects had led to 60 fires in over 20 states. In July 2016 the commission ordered the recall of over 500,000 units from 8 manufacturers. The Swagway model X1 constituted the majority of the recalled “hoverboards,” at 267,000 units.
In January 2016 the Philippines, the Departments of Health and Trade and Industry issued a joint advisory cautioning the public against buying them, due to reports of injuries and “potential electrocution connected with its usage”. The advisory also stated, “as a precautionary measure, the DOH and DTI-Consumer Protection Group, therefore, advise parents against buying hoverboards for children under 14 years of age.”
In May 2016, the mini pro produced by Segway Inc. received UL certification, as did a company in Shenzhen, China. In June 2016, after safety improvements in design, the UL-approved Swagtron was launched in the United States.
However, the danger of self-balance board have continued as there were several houses that caught on fire due to these devices in 2017
