It sounds complying UL 2272 still fails to convince stopping catch fire completely. Let see later how the new products perform.

My opinion - no discernable rationale for a new and separate safety standard for "electric-powered self-balancing scooters". The 2272 proposed standard is essentially make-work and worthless because it purposely ignored assessment of the product category's principle defining features. Perhaps UL had no choice because the UL696 scope is worthless for other than AC -mains connected stuff. But it does have this statement: "For a toy that mimics the form or function of an established general-use appliance, the established requirements applicable to the general-use appliance shall be considered in defining the particular requirements applicable to the toy." In any case look at EN15194 and 50272-3, and UL2271 and 2580.

What is the applicable standard to evaluate the mechanical part? Is it possible to use UL 2272 that is the latest US standard for this type of product? The new cast directive allows to use national standard if there is no harmonized standard. In electrical part and charger, should we apply EN 60204-1 or EN 60950-1 and EN 60335-2-29 or EN 61558-2-6? If there is remote control via Bluetooth with mobile phone, should RED/R&TTED be applied instead of all above standards for electrical part? Your guidance on compliance with this type of products is appreciated!
