Sally Hallman Posted December 14, 2015 Share Posted December 14, 2015 Or at least long range/the ability to bring along extra batteries. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jurgen Posted December 14, 2015 Share Posted December 14, 2015 why such a long range, no charging points along the way, no time, or is a record breaking thing? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
csmyers Posted December 14, 2015 Share Posted December 14, 2015 The battery would be bigger than the device itself! The biggest battery that's mass produced is somewhere around 1500Wh, which should get you 50+ miles. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
playdad Posted December 14, 2015 Share Posted December 14, 2015 Uhm, my legs would probably kill me first after 30 miles on my hoverboard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dmethvin Posted December 15, 2015 Share Posted December 15, 2015 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. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BA-B8 Posted December 15, 2015 Share Posted December 15, 2015 Get one of these and 100 miles should be fairly comfortable. Just charge at every rest stop. lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

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. All the while, is butt cheeks are clamping on so tight that the seat will need repairs after this photoshoot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jag_Rip Posted December 15, 2015 Share Posted December 15, 2015 You wanna go 100 miles in one stint? There's this invention thats been around for about 100 years, its called a CAR I'd recommend that for these kinds of distances Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jurgen Posted December 16, 2015 Share Posted December 16, 2015 Buy 4 EUC, put coach on top, think about new cool electric brandname (Tesla?) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
