Designers of individual vehicles have absolutely undeservedly neglected all sorts of skates. It’s time to correct this blatant injustice with the help of crowdfunding.
Individual vehicles for the city are entering the market almost every month. Thanks to such a wonderful thing as crowdfunding, every enthusiast designer has got a valuable tool in his hands that allows him to introduce on the market his vision of how a vehicle for one person should be arranged, if it is expected to replace a car and remain at times more convenient than bulky bicycles. Today, we are not going to talk about another segway, scooter or even a bicycle. It’s all about skates.
The new vehicle for urban areas is called ESkates. Despite the fact that this development resembles skates, you do not have to work with your legs. Maybe just a little. The thing is that they are driven by a pair of electric motors powered by lithium-ion batteries. Of course, you can use ESkates in a much more “traditional” way, but why should you make an effort, if the vehicle does everything for you?
Developing the topic of ESkates driving characteristics, it should be noted that the maximum speed of these bizarre skates is not at all comic – 24 km/h. However, the maximum speed can be limited to your taste and need, with the help of a special application on the smartphone. The skates weigh 6 kilograms and easily fit into a briefcase. The kit also includes a convenient cover. The full charge of the battery will last for almost 25 km of asphalt city roads when moving at the maximum speed. It will take about 15 minutes to fully charge the battery from a 220-volt outlet.
