Segway Inc. stops production of the Segway PT! What is to be paid attention to?

The screw connection of your Segway front stand can no longer be tightened? - Be careful! Often the simple "solution" of this problem leads to a very expensive repair!

Many Segway riders and especially tour providers do small service work on the Segway themselves. Unfortunately, we often find that due to inexperience and lack of training, the work is not done carefully. This is pure poison for your Segway! We show this with the example of the Coupling assembly.

We want to be so fair and announce this increase already today. Thus, all customers have the opportunity for wear items or more frequently used items still at the current prices to create a stock. .

The Generation 2 Segways (Gen2) were delivered until the beginning of 2014, so they are now at least 7 years old, but many have been in use for over 10 years. As with other consumer goods used in the outdoor area, the plastic parts of the Segway age due to UV radiation, vibration, shocks and use. A particular "weak point" of the Segway Gen2 is the housing. This console housing shows cracks and damage in almost all devices that come to PT Pro for maintenance or repair.

They are not only ideal for weekend trips. Also for the daily walk with the dog or if you just want to go out into nature. With a Segway seat this is finally no longer a problem.

Choosing the right charging cable and handling it correctly prevents damage to the internal charging unit! The standard cold appliance plugs on charging cables for e.g. PC's are approx. 3 - 4 mm too short to completely penetrate the charging socket of the Segway PT. Both the too short connector neck and a connector that is already under voltage produce small discharges at the contacts, with negative consequences. The internal charging unit usually handles these discharges several hundred times without any problems. However, the life span of the charging unit can be significantly extended if you get used to the correct procedure.
