[@thetds101]

Oh man,..this is a solid deal. Excellent review, as always. And it DESTROYED the HILL OF DEATH!!! 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍

[@TimsElectric]

I think so too @Doug K :) :) :)

[@guesskings]

265lbs, Splach Titan,he is a beast,so cool

[@TimsElectric]

@King Guess Cheers :)

[@hammerthor8259]

Have you seen or tried out the Splach Transformer? It has a unique dirt bike design, and you can even sit. Would be cool for a video!

[@TimsElectric]

I haven't heard of it ...I'll go take a look :) :) thanks for letting me know Hammer Thor :)

[@TimsElectric]

Heads up I deleted (by mistake) your last comment ...sorry...I replied then hit delete and can't undelete it lol...you asked about two scooters the VIG vs Cyclone...if you need portability then maybe the Cyclone...but overall the VIG Blade is amazing :)

[@TonesAdventuresHD]

Good one Tim! Would love to see a range test!

[@TimsElectric]

Cheers Tone!!! Will do :) :)

[@SPLACHBIKE]

Love it, nice job,Tim！

[@TimsElectric]

It's a lovely scooter :) thank you

[@drmelissawest]

Budget beast and carrot cake! Love it! 😄

[@TimsElectric]

thanks sweetie...love carrot cake from the bakery :)

[@mikerochester]

Cool looking scooter, love the lights.

[@TimsElectric]

kinda fun at night that's for sure :)

[@aaronjensen9070]

Please compare the Splach to the the VIG Blade Pro and Varla Eagle One Pro

[@TimsElectric]

@Aaron Jensen that's a terrific idea

[@schlooonginator1227]

Eh, fellow Victorian here and I think I found the best performance escooter for the money. The Blade X. $2400 all in. Dual 1200 W motors 60 volt 28.4 Ah LG battery 30 amp controllers, Sine wave. 160mm hydraulic disk brakes A good bright headlight with red running lights annd bright turn signal lights. Had coil sprung suspension front and rear but I upgraded to cheap air sprung. I also upgraded the stem and handlebar because I had high end mtb parts but many escooters are not able to swap with standard bike parts so this is a bonus also. Catch was ordering from China and getting the runaround for 3 months. He didnt understand that if he just was honest about supply shortage I would have been fine also it did not shit with the piece that secured the main neck upright and when he did finally ship it it was incorrectly assembled requiring some dremeling. So theres a cost to trying to save money but in the end I am very happy and it flies up Mt.Doug no problem. Maybe will see you out there some time. cheers.

[@TimsElectric]

Sounds like you've found a beast...so awesome...Mt Doug is so awesome for hill tests...brutal...bet it just flies up it though :) so pleased you reached out...do say hello if you see me on the trails :) :) Cheers

[@greenwave819]

compare to Vsett10+ I like that if I'm spending more than 1500

[@michaelberkin7889]

Curious to see how this would stack up against the Inokim Ox (or Oxo).

[@TimsElectric]

I just need to try an Ox or Oxo :)

[@tinasarosiak7905]

How does this scooter compare to the Segway ninebot? I have put sharkset front suspension on mine, but love the suspension on this one! And the lights !! Wowza

[@TimsElectric]

I haven't got a Segway to compare it to...but if it's the NInebot Max, then this will be a big upgrade...much faster of the line (higher top speed)...not really a fair comparison this has a bigger battery, suspension front and rear...it's a bit of a beast :) and the lights are pretty awesome :)

[@mr.mister9099]

pls do a circooter raptor pro review

[@TimsElectric]

I'll reach out and see if I can :) thanks for letting me know about them :) Cheers

[@glennover6046]

I watched and commented on your excellent review of the Apollo V3 which I was eventually going to buy however, considering the price difference as wells as it appears that there is no VAT (I live in Portugal), this seems like a really viable alternative that I can afford right now. Regen braking too? Seems like a no-brainer!

[@TimsElectric]

it's a sweet ride for sure @glennover6046, cheers to you in beautiful Portugal :)

[@KrimsonWing]

Man I haven’t even received my scooter from splach yet and I already have Buyer’s remorse. About a month ago I purchased the twin. I really wish I knew this was coming.

[@TimsElectric]

how long did they say it would be?

[@KrimsonWing]

@@TimsElectric they actually just sent me an email saying that it would be shipping out from their warehouse on Monday

[@TimsElectric]

great news :)

[@MarcTheMessenger]

Did u get? How do u like it

[@greenwave819]

The twin looks really good also

[@alvarezsolo164]

Can you tell us more details about the display and also what app to control lights is it good for iPhone just these types of things ?? Ready to order!!!

[@TimsElectric]

sure, the app is a simple app to use...I don't have an Iphone but I'm sure it would work the same way as it does on my Android...simple...to be honest I don't use it...I set it up once and I'm happy with the lighting :) ...as to the display it's a simple easy to read display :) similar to the EYE3 display :)

[@alvarezsolo164]

I was wondering what was the name of the app ? so I can see if its available on the iPhone and thanks I really enjoy you video far more info than the other videos I have seen really do want to order but not of info out there and what do you recommend vs the titan?

[@TimsElectric]

@@alvarezsolo164 it's called duoCo Strip...it controls the lighting :) I'd look at the Apollo Ghost, Apollo City 2022, Varla Pegasus and Eagle One plus the VIG Aesir :)

[@MarcTheMessenger]

@@alvarezsolo164did u get? How u like

[@curtisschafer3836]

Looking at synergy cyclone. But this splash titan looks like exact same scooter. Different weight ratings. Splash is way cheaper. Am I wrong. Also love the reviews Tim. Great vids

[@TimsElectric]

Yes, exactly

[@saschaschmitt1762]

Hi Tim! Is it possible to mount turn signals on the handlebars? (like the WingLights 360) Thanks a lot :-)

[@TimsElectric]

I think so...I don't have set to try ...but looks like they'd fit :)

[@cullinthemost]

Been waiting on this, thanks Tim!

[@TimsElectric]

awesome to hear thank you :) any questions fire away :)

[@cullinthemost]

@@TimsElectric do you know the degree of slope and length on the hill of death? I use the app “Car Clinometer” to measure that. I live in a very “hilly” landscape and am anxious to find out if this scooter is going to be able to pull 30% from standstill for about 150 feet? And how well will it pull that with less than 50% battery?

[@TimsElectric]

So I actually measured the "Hill of Death" in a previous episode...let me know if this helps :) kzbin.info/www/bejne/Y5fUl3aBp6aVd7c

[@cullinthemost]

@@TimsElectric that’s about as close as I could hope for! Thanks! I’m anxiously awaiting delivery!

[@TimsElectric]

May I ask, how heavy you are? It had no problem with my 6' 265lbs body :)

[@brandonwise425]

How does Splach's Titan compare to Varla's Eagle One? Which do you prefer?

[@TimsElectric]

That's a good question....probably the Varla for the ride in the city, commuting and cruising. The Splach for trail rides and off road :)

[@ieatrareturtles]

Are the tyres air filled or solid? I've read conflicting information about the scooter with respect to its tyres. Nice review!

[@TimsElectric]

9" Air filled tires :)

[@AndrewSheldon]

One question for me - the quality of the battery? I know 'lithium ion', but not all equal, so wondered about charging cycles and safety.

[@TimsElectric]

@Andrew Sheldon that's a great question. I was reading a post about this very subject recently and honestly the host couldn't tell the difference. I think there might be one...but they couldn't measure one. I wonder if the difference was much bigger years ago? Awesome question :) Time will tell I guess :)

[@AndrewSheldon]

@@TimsElectric I asked a scooter importer into NZ. An array of battery chemistries, but never the longer life LiFePO4 chemistry. So 600-800 cycles, not 3000-5000 cycles. Hard to know. Other concern is ease to change tires. I heard this is issue.

[@TimsElectric]

@@AndrewSheldon I'd love to see a bunch of things on the next generation of scooters....one of them is the tire changing...it needs to get easier :) ...I'll do a full video on this very soon :)

[@greenwave819]

these appear to be the LG 16850's. rare to find LiPo4 still, esp at any budget price. after 800 charges (be smart about how you charge), 30 miles per charge... 24000 miles? you've gotten you $$$ worth

[@KingK1.]

So i have been deciding on buying either the phantom v3 or the titan. I had issues already with trying to purchase it so im not sure what to do

[@TimsElectric]

depends...off roading and tearing up the trails? or more streets and trails? former the Splach...the later (like me) the Apollo...so smooooth :)

[@KingK1.]

@@TimsElectric i just got the titan 10 jade and i was wondering how long did it take to receive the titan

[@KingK1.]

To many issues with apollo so far trying to pay and stuff

@@TimsElectric and im trying to have be able to do it all safely

[@TimsElectric]

interesting...I wonder what the issue was with payment...hummm....anyway, I think it took about 2-3 weeks ...but my memory is fuzzy...don't ask me what I had for breakfast yesterday :)

[@dennishaughton4554]

Well now that u told everyone about the AirTag hideout . I not an hiding spot anymore is it?

[@TimsElectric]

I don't think thieves will be watching these videos...IMHO :)

[@greenwave819]

yeah the person who steals it does so because they see it in public, not because they watched YT videos about it and then went looking to find one out and about and prone to be stolen

[@Velinastus]

Alright i think im between the Splach Titan or the Niu KQI3 Max its only a $200 dollar difference.. Which would you go with since you have tested them.. Thanks!

[@TimsElectric]

the ride is a lot nicer on the Splach...the Niu doesn't have suspension :) I'd probably go with the Splach for fun...but if I had to carry it up and down stairs and commute a short distance...then the Max :)

[@Velinastus]

@@TimsElectric I appreciate you!

[@TimsElectric]

@@Velinastus Cheers and thank you 😁

[@runnerofthespeedforce3273]

Hey Tim you coming out with the range test soon? I'm debating between a Vsett 9+, Vsett 10+ or the Splach Titan. Curious how the splach titan's range is.

[@TimsElectric]

thanks for reaching out...sadly the weather hasn't been great and I've been getting reviews done ASAP and then I'll do range tests...I'm a bit behind :( ...if you tell me your weight...I can test it out today when I go to referee and give you an approx range based on my weight :) and extrapolate :)

@Tim's Electric Hi Tim have u happened to try a range test with this scooter yet? Also do u know what battery is uses? Is it a LG or Samsung or something else?

[@greenwave819]

I've heard people call it Splash Titan. not sure tho edit: thanks for the video, it has been very helpful as I am looking at scooters in this class

[@TimsElectric]

Glad I could help

[@Indo432]

Is it worth $1500 compare to current scooters that’s under $1500 with hydraulic brakes.

[@TimsElectric]

@INDO NYC I think if you look on Indiegogo they're only $1150 USD so yes...I think it's an amazing deal for what you get :)

[@susahamatcarinama]

Is it bulletproof?

[@TimsElectric]

I'll have to ask my American friends lol :) maybe they could try it out...tough little unit :)

[@demonocusmetalocus3558]

it seems very similar to my apollo ghost 2022

[@TimsElectric]

I need to put them side by side...I think you're right :) Maybe I should compare the two in the next video?

[@codyhammer6293]

Is this available in USA?

[@TimsElectric]

it sure is! link in the description :)

[@truthsquestions1532]

How much was the scooter for

[@TimsElectric]

sorry I don't keep track as pricing seems to change for scooters and ebikes :) should be a link below the video though :)

[@francisking1497]

but is it waterproof

[@TimsElectric]

HI Francis, no it's not...this has a similar IP rating to most others in its class...I am reviewing a waterproof one very very soon :)

[@elevategambia220]

Very cool

[@TimsElectric]

thank you :)

[@arceo1982]

Scooter looks promising but it has a weight limit of 220Lbs which will not work for me.

[@TimsElectric]

that's interesting...I saw that too...I'm 265lbs and it seems like it would be the same as others in the same class (like Apollo, Varla etc.) I wonder why it only says 220lbs ...hummmm

[@greenwave819]

I think the 220 is a misprint!

Thanks Geoff, I'll take a look as I haven't ridden a Hiley :)

@@gatesroyale we have the Kintech Venom which costs around $2500AUD..its another version of the Hiley brand. Around 1500klms travelled and so far very reliable. Only downside was a rear disk rotor which was squealing that we replaced with another design.

[@EBY8644]

I thought you might be interested in my experience with a failed Christmas gift Splach Titan. I was so excited about this scooter. But it arrived with both wheels all sorts of out of alignment. At first customer service was great but have become insulting and dismissive. They are not standing by their product in my humble opinion. This video was shot after replacing a bent rotor and got a new tire. My channel also has videos showing the original state rear wheel and more mild wobbling of the front wheel. kzbin.infopVwkMVJyeYk?si=BeMx_jK7C621hemC

sorry to hear your unit was broken :( @EBY8644
