The 2 Wheel Self Balancing Electric Scooter

With the launch of the brand new 2 wheel self balancing electric scooter, 2015 continues to be a fantastic year for gadget fans. Across the world, individuals are taking to YouTube, Twitter, Facebook and Instagram to publish pics and vids of themselves zipping around for this 2 wheel contraption which basically appears to be a board having a wheel on both sides.


A cross between a skateboard along with a segway, this mini Segway (minus the handle) type thing is bolstering in popularity, fuelled partly with the level of celebrities that were seen on one. From Attacking young boys to Soulja Boy, Kendall Jenner to Jamie Foxx, have the ability to tried their hand only at that nifty little gadget, and appear to get stood a large amount of fun doing this.

Nicknamed the ‘swegway’ (as a consequence of it’s likeness to the Segway, but a ‘cooler’ version) we aren’t sure entirely where this type of 2 wheel scooter descends from or who invented the initial. Almost certainly it descends from some factory in China. The initial glimpses we saw of it on television were a product known as the IO Hawk, a scooter that will set you back an astonishing $1800. It was in January of 2015. Since that time many cheaper versions the exact same product came on the market and the average price right now looks like it’s around $500.

How can it work? Basically you stand on the 2 panels and shift one’s body weight slightly forward or slightly back and yes it senses this bodyweight change and moves backwards or forwards. It may also turn right or left. This 2 wheel scooter is proving to be very popular it really is being touted because the personal mobility device of the future. Who wishes to walk when you can glide, right? Plus it’s really a lot faster than walking, travelling at speeds of 6mph to 10mph.
