Requires testing of electrical systems of certain electric bicycles, powered mobility devices, and batteries prior to sale, rental, lease, or other distribution to consumers.
This bill requires manufacturers and sellers to test the electrical systems of low-speed electric bicycles, powered mobility devices (like scooters), and their batteries before selling, renting, leasing, or distributing them to consumers in New Jersey. Products must be tested by independent safety labs against specific Underwriters Laboratories standards (e.g., UL 2849 for bikes) and display the lab’s logo on packaging or directly on the device. Sellers who violate this rule face a $1,000 fine per offense after an initial warning. The law aims to ensure consumer safety by preventing the sale of potentially hazardous devices.
