Segway HT - i Series

i SERIES: Overview:

The Segway Human Transporter (HT) i Series is our most rugged and powerful model. It was built for added stability and plenty of cargo capacity. The i Series features powerful batteries for extended speed and range, as well as large wheels, a higher platform and low-pressure tires for enhanced performance in variable terrain. The i Series readily navigates dirt, grass, hills and uneven pavement.

In addition to the redundant safety features at the heart of all Segway HT models, the i Series comes equipped with a number of standard features. Power assist mode allows you to move the device up and down stairs more easily. The control shaft is adjustable to the comfort of the rider and allows the Segway HT to fit in the trunk of many cars. To help prevent theft, each Segway HT comes with its own set of keys, encoded with a unique 64-bit security identification. The i Series also comes with a mechanical parking stand.

The i Series is available in two colors: original Titanium or the new Midnight Blue.

MSRP: $4495.00

i SERIES: Specifications:

	SPEED: The maximum forward speed and turning rate of your Segway HT can be set at different values based upon which key is used: Beginner Key (black): Maximum speed: 6 mph (9.6 km/h) Slower turning rate Sidewalk Operation Key (yellow): Maximum speed: 8 mph (12.9 km/h) Medium turning rate Open Environment Key (red): Maximum speed: 12.5 mph (20 km/h) Most responsive turning rate

	RANGE: 8-12 miles (13-19 km) on a single charge The range for each Segway HT model varies with terrain and riding style. Under normal riding conditions, you can expect to ride about 10 miles on a single charge.

	POWER: Nickel Metal Hydride (NiMH) Battery Packs The i Series has been outfitted with two 60 cell NiMH battery packs. The batteries are designed with on-board electronics that automatically monitor both the condition and temperature of the batteries. Batteries can be recharged by utilizing any 90 to 260 volt and 50 to 60 Hz AC outlet (typically accessible in most countries). A complete cycle charge will take four to six hours, which at 10 cents per KW-h, equates to less than 10 cents of electricity. NiMH batteries are designed for approximately 300-500 full charge/discharge cycles. Range, battery life and recharge times can be affected by factors such as terrain, temperature, speed of operation, rider weight and load, proper storage techniques and environmental conditions.

	TERRAIN: The i Series' larger tires and wider profile make it ideal for varied terrain and rugged environments. The Segway HT's inertial sensors constantly monitor the rider's position relative to gravity. This allows the Segway HT to adjust for changes in terrain while keeping the rider upright.

	SAFETY: Safety is the top priority in both design and operation. To help ensure that both Segway HT users and those near them remain safe, Segway built redundancy into the balancing and electrical systems. If any system begins operating at diminished capacity, the other is programmed to assume responsibility. This allows the Segway HT to maintain balance and bring the rider to a safe stop. The highest design standards were implemented in building the Segway HT's mechanical structures, and each part has been thoroughly tested and analyzed to ensure such high standards were met.

	RADIUS: One characteristic of a pedestrian is the ability to turn in place without impacting any nearby person or object, something few vehicles can do. By balancing on a single axle, Segway HT users can also turn in place.

	WEIGHT: 83 lbs (38 kg) Portability was a key design objective. That's why we made the Segway HT light enough to handle, small enough to store in the trunk of a midsize sedan, and collapsible enough to fit in tight storage spaces.

	TEMPERATURE: When stored and charged at room temperature, the i Series can operate in environments ranging from 32ºF (0ºC) to 122ºF (50ºC). Actual performance is dependent on battery temperature, terrain and riding style.

	SPACE: Platform height: 8.3 in (21 cm) Footprint: 19 x 25 in (48 x 64 cm) The Segway HT was designed to take up no more space than the average person. About as wide as the average person's shoulders, it raises you 8 inches off the ground, providing a clear sight line of your surroundings.
