Pioneering safety, visibility, and smart diagnostics for next-generation electric mobility.
As micro-mobility transitions from a novel urban trend to a core pillar of public transit networks, lighting is no longer just a passive accessory—it is a critical safety parameter and compliance gateway.
The global micro-mobility market is experiencing unprecedented expansion. Electric scooters, e-bikes, and light electric vehicles (LEVs) are dominating urban landscapes from Paris and Berlin to San Francisco and Tokyo. However, this growth has brought municipal scrutiny, particularly regarding night-time safety and pedestrian coexistence. According to safety commission studies worldwide, a disproportionate percentage of severe micromobility accidents occur during dusk, dawn, and night-time hours due to poor vehicle conspicuity and inadequate path illumination.
Modern electric scooter lighting has evolved beyond simple bulb-and-reflector designs. Today, it demands highly engineered optical systems that project precise, non-glare cut-off beams to prevent blinding oncoming traffic, while providing wide lateral spread for complex urban environments. For shared scooter operators, lighting systems must also act as diagnostic nodes, integrating directly with IoT modules to communicate state-of-charge (SoC), operational status, and active fault reporting via dynamic color states (such as RGB indicators and DRLs).
At Hangzhou EV Light Co., Ltd., we address these global commercial challenges by engineering lighting solutions that minimize battery draw while maximizing luminous intensity. By implementing advanced LED architectures and smart thermal designs, we help OEM manufacturers and fleet operators build safer, more reliable, and regulatory-compliant vehicles that seamlessly integrate into the smart cities of tomorrow.
Reducing maintenance overhead through IP67+ waterproof ratings and solid-state LED assemblies that resist sustained vibration and mechanical impacts.
Ready-to-certify components aligned with ECE R113, E-Mark (Germany's StVZO), and US DOT regulations, bypassing compliance bottlenecks for global market entry.
Tailor-made styling, lens focal points, and interface designs (CAN/LIN bus, UART) to match the distinct brand identity and chassis limitations of Tier-1 vehicle makers.

Traditional micromobility headlights often emit a symmetric, unguided beam of light that scatters upwards, leading to two severe issues: blinding oncoming pedestrians or cyclists and wasting valuable lumens by dispersing them into the sky. Our engineering team designs custom-molded polycarbonate (PC) and PMMA (acrylic) lenses that incorporate asymmetrical optical geometries. This design produces a sharp horizontal cut-off line, keeping the beam projected downwards onto the roadway (below the eye line of oncoming traffic) while maximizing lateral spread to cover sidewalks and corner blind spots.
High-intensity LEDs generate localized heat at the junction point. If this heat is not dissipated, the junction temperature rises, leading to color shift, lumen depreciation, and premature failure. To maintain peak brightness within extremely compact, sealed plastic housings common to electric scooters, we use high-conductivity metal core printed circuit boards (MCPCBs). These boards are coupled with die-cast aluminum heat sinks and thermal interface materials (TIMs) that effectively route thermal energy away from the semiconductor die. This ensures our 20W to 40W headlights operate reliably even under extended static use in high ambient temperatures.
Electric scooters operate on diverse battery architectures ranging from 24V, 36V, 48V, to 60V and 72V systems. Our internal constant-current driver boards feature integrated buck-boost DC-DC converters that accept wide-range inputs (9V to 85V DC) without fluctuation in light output. Furthermore, our boards integrate comprehensive circuit protection: transient voltage suppression (TVS), reverse polarity protection, overtemperature protection, and electromagnetic interference (EMI) filters. This protects the vehicle's central electronics from feedback noise and ensures compliance with EMC directive standards.

Entering international consumer markets requires navigating complex, regionally specific vehicle homologation codes. For light electric vehicles and scooters, lighting systems represent a primary focus for compliance inspectors.
Europe (ECE and StVZO): The European Union relies on ECE regulations (such as ECE R113 for motorcycle-class headlamps and ECE R50 for position, stop, and direction indicator lamps). Additionally, the German market enforces the strict Straßenverkehrs-Zulassungs-Ordnung (StVZO). The StVZO requires a flat cut-off beam with zero light emitted above the horizontal axis. Our manufacturing facilities are fully certified to obtain E-Mark certifications, providing vehicle builders with pre-tested components that easily clear regional inspection hurdles.
North America (DOT/FMVSS): While electric kick-scooters are regulated at state and municipal levels, larger seated electric scooters and mopeds must satisfy Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard 108 (FMVSS 108). Our lights undergo rigorous photometric testing inside goniophotometer darkrooms to ensure they meet the candela distribution envelopes mandated by US and Canadian authorities.
Environmental and Mechanical Durability: Beyond optical output, scooter lights must endure physical environments. Our in-house quality labs subject all new designs to intense testing protocols:
Different mobility formats present unique challenges. Our lighting and display solutions are designed to address the specific needs of various vehicle segments:
Shared fleets demand high durability and vandalism resistance. We supply ultra-robust headlight assemblies with thick UV-treated polycarbonate lenses, tamper-resistant mounting brackets, and smart IoT-connected electronics that monitor diode health. Tail-lights feature integrated APP-controlled flashing patterns for parking confirmation and hazard states.
Four-wheel folding mobility scooters require reliable, highly visible, and low-power lighting systems. We provide specialized front LED assemblies and bright brake/indicator kits that ensure clear visibility for pedestrians and vehicles, enhancing user confidence during outdoor use.
For premium consumer-facing brands, style is as important as safety. We design dynamic RGB under-deck lighting, integrated 7-segment status dashboards, and smart helmet signal lights. These features allow riders to sync turn signals and brake warnings with their helmets for enhanced personal safety.
As the industry advances, Hangzhou EV Light is committed to developing next-generation technologies that redefine micro-mobility safety and vehicle intelligence:
Future lighting systems will interact directly with smart city infrastructure. Our R&D team is developing indicator arrays that flash in response to proximity sensors or warnings transmitted by surrounding connected vehicles. This turns the scooter's lighting system into an active warning device for both the rider and nearby traffic.
Borrowing technology from luxury electric passenger vehicles, we are developing miniaturized adaptive matrix arrays. By utilizing gyroscope data, the headlight adjust its light projection in real-time. This compensates for vehicle lean during turns, ensuring the road ahead remains illuminated through sharp curves.
To prevent conflicts with pedestrians and vehicles at intersections, our future systems will feature miniature projection optics. These project warning lines or direction arrows onto the street surface around the scooter. This informs surrounding pedestrians and vehicles of the rider's intended path, preventing blind-spot collisions before they occur.
