I heard a few months ago from two different Segway dealers that the (Ninebot) Segway Elite Plus is no longer available the USA because Segway couldn't get UL approval. One dealer said Segway had a warehouse stocked with them in the USA they can't sell now. I have a feeling that this could imply a lack of safety redundancy, but I'm just guessing. That makes me a little nervous about riding mine now. Luckily I also have a Segway i2 SE (slightly nicer than the obsolete i2). I haven't heard any such discussion about the redundancy of the Segway miniPro, or the new Segway miniPro Lite and miniPLUS models. Hopefully the fact that they are legal in the USA implies redundancy.
