Re: pic: My Segway

Cost me around 3grand to make....valued around 4.
$700 torque sensor for steering (you could use a $1 pot instead :")
$1,000 A123 Li-Ion batteries (can build your own pack for $400)
$572 for motors and gearboxes (i found them for $150 a pair on ebay)

I bet someone can build a nice one for under 2k.

15MPH
10 mile range

Never tested the max weight it can handle...but it's ridden fine with a 250 rider, and fine with 2x 150 riders :")
