    but Zero isn't a low quality product

    Sure there are dodgey batteries & chargers out there. But they are a very small minority. Worst thing is charging them off a power board, only use a power point. turn it off when it's finished charging, don't leave it overnight.

      This is the battery it comes with http://www.sincbattery.com/excellentquality.html

      If you believe that this is a high quality, Australian-compliant battery with a solid and reliable charging safety circuit, then go for it. I wouldn't touch it.

      Almost all the fire is custom ebike with modded batteries any legit branded scooter/ebike has no issue, if anything need better regulation thats all

  NSW MFS reports they have a fire from devices like this every 2 days
  (virtually none from EVs though)

  You have to wonder how much of this stuff is just disasters waiting to happen.
