InMotion V8 Reviews

Evaluation 5
Advantages: Powerful engine
Great design
Popular model
Engine shut-off button under the handle
Lamp
Carrying handle
16 inch wheel, good tire
Disadvantages: Well ... expensive.
Flashlight is rather weak. only very slowly at night you can go.
Very sleek body. Put - may already be scuffed.
Charging sometimes makes strange humming sounds - it can break.
Comment: Before that I rode a nouneyme, after it imo is just a Thing! Rides smoothly, the charge of 30 kilometers is enough accurately, accurately assembled.
I ride up to 20km / h so that the engine power is always enough if that.

Advantages: 1. When lifting the wheel by the carrying handle, the wheel shuts off the engine;
2. When driving, you can use the belt, because the engine off button is deactivated when driving!
3. The wheel is parked vertically, because on the wing there are special stops, and it is not necessary to turn it off, just press the button under the handle and park;
4. No adapter for swap wheels! It is no longer needed, there is a special window;
5. The lamp is very bright, you can really drive in the dark. Behind you did not forget to install red, but I recommend to buy more on your head;
6. Built-in retractable handle, in which it is convenient to control the wheel while you walk;
7. High steps allow turning with a much smaller radius;
8. The wheel is neither narrow nor wide. And it will not hang out, and the legs do not have to put the wheel. Golden mean;
9. Some highly intelligent wheel travel. This is a breakthrough !;
10. The range of travel in the summer to 45-50 km (see the comment);
11. It is possible not to quickly change the battery, if anyone is interested to conquer ultra-long distances (see comment);
12. Very handy charge indicator;
13. You can turn off the voice;
14. You can replace the voice accompaniment, including your own voice (see the comment);
15. You can turn off the illumination without the application (to raise and turn on the lamp);
16. You can change the animation of illumination (see comment);
17. You can ride in the winter, if you change your shoes in winter tires (see the comment).
Disadvantages: Too heavy to carry the stairs across the railway;
The side covers are thin, they can crack on impact, they are not sold separately, only the whole case, which is about 5,000 rubles;
Rubs the calf muscles on the plastic and ankle. Included are soft pillows, but they should be glued according to the instructions below, and not at the top. The added benefit is that you can lift the wheel by jumping on these cushions to overcome a small obstacle, such as a curb / sidewalk / curb. But for the upper part of the monocolice, you can temporarily use an elastic bandage for pants until the calf muscles get used to the plastic;
In deep tuning modes, hieroglyphs almost everywhere, be smart and everything will work out.
The Android application does not work on the Samsung S3 Mini and Tab3, and it works with the cheap Meizu M3S and M3 Note.
Comment: The application for Android and iOS opens up additional features (this is a separate topic). The initial pairing code is 000000. You need to connect the device directly from the application.

After installing the application, you will receive an update request (not the wheels, but the applications). In security, tick the installation from a third-party application. Attention! I highly recommend not updating the firmware of the wheel (FirmWare), because you have installed a stable firmware, and they are posting not yet run-in ones, so follow the forums.

Addition to p.10. Keep in mind that 50 km is a calculation of 25/70 (in a straight line with +25, 70kg rider weight and speed of 15 km / h, in real life with my weight of 92 kg the distance is somewhere around 42 km. At 0 degrees - 31km, at -10 it is already 24 km, at -15 it is about 20 km and this is on clean asphalt, if you subtract 20-30% from the snow (approximately).
Addition to clause 11. In principle, in summer, in dry weather, this can be done on the road in 20 minutes. The battery costs about 20,000 rubles.
Addition to p. 14. I chose the English voice pack, then replaced each command separately (with the new firmware on Android, it is lightning fast)
Addition to p.16. Each frame is "drawn" separately. Control each LED separately. Select a group of primary colors, as well as from the palette (16 million colors). Sets the duration of each frame. Only one scheme can be poured into the monowheel. In the latest version of the scheme are filled quickly. The factory diagram is listed.
Addition to p. 17. Do not remove the pedals, it is not necessary. It takes me 20 minutes to replace a tire / camera with pumping. You need a Phillips screwdriver to loosen 16 screws and one hexagon to loosen 8 bolts. Winter studded does not fit. The pressure in the winter tire is exactly 2.5bar, on the summer one from 2.8 to 4.6 bar, this is very important! Pierce the camera, you can not take the wheel - "kill" the tire and it costs 1500 rubles, the camera 600 rubles.

Advantages: Bright and catchy design, powerful motor for people up to 100 kg. the most Retractable Pen, Smart Standard Pen. Bluetooth for customization, Slim body.
Disadvantages: With the new 'removable handle hides back with effort, but does not hang out. not suitable for jumping on the curb because slips out of the grip. Pedals require maintenance, or some modifications in the form of rubber strips for glue to extend the life of regular sandpaper.
Comment: For $ 30, there is an opportunity to purchase a protective slipcover, which during the day will allow a little extreme, if you sew material onto it to grip the wheel before the jump, those who do not like the backlight can glue the whole wheel with a film. But so it loses its individuality. For the money the best solution is almost impossible to find. Ergonomics for riding on one leg at the highest level, but still people above 185 should choose a model of 18 inches. V-8 - This is the best gift for the new year to fans of electric vehicles. Buy this miracle, despite the minor flaws. After all, it is difficult to get such pleasure from a skate board or roller skates, and on vacations under the warm southern sun one will not have to rent scooters, because this one will fit in any suitcase, just wrapped in rags, and passed in luggage.
