Any segways/hoverboards that allow for 100/200 mile trips?

Assuming a generous average of 10 miles per hour, a 100-mile trip would take 10 hours. That seems crazy! Maybe you'd take a break for lunch and a few bathroom stops. But if you're stopped for an hour at lunch or 10 minutes for the bathroom you might as well charge during that time. And that would be for an EUC, I can't imagine riding a hoverboard over rough outdoor surfaces.

My Firewheel F260 can get maybe 15 miles on a charge. So let's say a F779 can do 45 miles. If you had a custom 4-amp charger and stopped for 10 minutes to top up at about the 2.5 hour mark, then took an hour for lunch and charged again to full charge, then an afternoon charge break, you might just make it to 100 miles. Seems pretty crazy though. While in motion you'd need to be doing about 12mph for almost 9 hours.

Get one of these and 100 miles should be fairly comfortable.  Just charge at every rest stop.  lol

I don't know...  What I read from that photo is that he's just about to fall over on his side, but he knows this is an advertising photo, so he's trying to act like he does not notice.B)  All the while, is butt cheeks are clamping on so tight that the seat will need repairs after this photoshoot. :lol:
