Common questions
Can I use a universal charger on the Mi Essential?
Only use one that outputs 42V 1.7A (71W) and has the round 8mm plug.
How do I know my charger is bad?
Common signs: the charger light stays the same color (or never lights) when plugged into the scooter, the battery never reaches full, the brick gets very hot or smells burnt, or a multimeter reads no voltage (or far below the rated output) at the plug. Also check the cable and plug pins for damage.
Where can I buy a replacement charger for the Xiaomi Mi Essential?
Xiaomi's official store, Amazon, or eBay have the charger shown on this page.
