Default RM09D test

Ive used the RM09D now and really it is a lot better than other Chinese Segway models I have used.

I used it recently from fully charged until flat by starting an early morning ride and riding around my property for most of the day. So its really hard to so say
the exact range. Blew a fuse on day two going up a steep hill which took just minutes to replace.

I have also used the Freego F2 as I actually retail them both. When used correctly the Freego F2 does a very basic job but don't push it or you risk
overheating the PCB board. The older chinese models do not have sufficient
override mechanisms which prevent the PCB board overheating and blowing like the newer RM09D

Additionally the Freego F2 is very heavy being a cast iron body. The RM09D is actually a very similar weight to the Segway X2 and is much easier to move than the F2. The RM09D has alarms which warn you if you are pushing
beyond its basic abilities.

I would say the RM09D is a key competitor to the Segway X2 and overall a
similar device. Reliability seems to be there as well as the override mechanisms which prevent the user pushing it too hard.

Thats all true.
