A Segway needs electricity to balance itself, so my guess is that when it gets close to running out of battery, it stops by itself and refuses to continue.
- coryrc 3y agoThough they have failed in the same manner as the Onewheel, but less often and their top speed is lower IIRC.
- MBCook 3y agoI’d be willing to bet they limited their speed then stopped before the battery fully ran out to prevent this exact situation.
- coryrc 3y agoFrom trading the other comments, it seems the Onewheel is just glitchy. They certainly must also have a low-battery cutoff, but I bet it's not accurate in all ranges of temperature and with aged batteries.
