Electric Skateboard

This is a bluetooth remote-controlled and battery powered skateboard by Boosted.This skateboard/longboard uses 8 times the amount of power (in WATTS) than an average household desktop computer. The average home desktop runs with 65-250 WATTS and most custom built computers run at about 500 WATTS. Staying at the average 250 WATT computer, this skateboard uses 8 times the amount of WATTS. It uses 2000 WATTS to run. It has a maximum speed of 22 miles per hour. It works with a remote control that you can hold to make it go. If you can't deal with the chance of going that fast set it to an easier mode making the maximum speed just 10 miles per hour. If you are looking for a quick, easy, and fun ride to work or school, this board may just be for you. Some serious skaters could interpret this poorly because it takes the point of skateboarding away but it isn't for tricks. It is a quick and easy way to get around town such as Skywalkers, which you may have been seeing around recently. This board is one of the first remote control skateboards but I'm sure we'll be seeing more.
