" We all know that these electric scooters, e-bikes, hoverboards are starting to be used as modes of transport so they are more prevalent in people's homes when they are being charged.
" I appreciate people want them ready to use to get about during The Day , so they charge them at Night - But I would urge people to charge them when they are awake and alert. "
