My best advice is to take good care of your batteries, never leave your segway unplugged for more than a day. At least once a month drain them completely down to zero.

Welcome to the wonderful world of gliding.

I just replaced my batteries, after 6 years and 5400 miles. I could have gone quite a bit longer on my old set, but with a new longer commute and being really dependent on them, I didn't want to push things.

Most people would have found my old batteries to be pretty acceptable; they probably get about 70% range or so.

I always plug in my Segway when it's not in use, and I use it regularly.

Obviously, we can't have infinite voltage, or the universe would tear itself to shreds, and we wouldn't be discussing Segways.
