The Segway PT has been designed to be extremely durable. In order to deliver a durable productivity tool, we pursued two design avenues. First, we built durable mechanical and electrical systems to be in solid state, so even the moving parts were designed for longevity. For example, the motors are brushless servomotors, so there are no parts that could wear out. We then submitted the systems to extensive, rigorous testing to ensure we met our goals.

There are a number of options available should you wish to insure your Segway PT. We recommend you contact your insurance company or local agent to find out the type of coverage they offer. It may be helpful to know that Progressive now provides personal use coverage for Segway PTs in most states To get more information or buy a policy, call 1-800-PROGRESSIVE.

All rechargeable batteries (NiCad, NiMH, Li Ion, and Lead Acid) must be disposed of properly through approved recycling facilities. To recycle your batteries, they may be returned to a battery retailer in you area (i.e. Sears, Radio Shack), automotive service station or other authorized collection centers for recycling. You may also visit the Rechargeable Battery Recycling Corporation web site at: www.rbrc.org.

For small quantities: ? Used household batteries (including rechargeable ones) cannot be economically recycled at present. Small quantities of these can be safely put out in the black Council refuse bags with other household wastes. ? Vehicle batteries can be taken to an EcoDepot.

Riding the Segway PT feels like nothing you've ever experienced, because there's never been anything like it. Step on and your instinct will be to steady yourself, as you would on anything with two wheels. But almost immediately you'll realize that the Segway PT is balancing for you, almost like it has become an extension of you. Just lean forward a little and you'll see that the Segway PT isn't moving you on its own, it's moving in response to you and what you tell it to do.

Yes, a Segway PT can be charged while driving in your car or boat by using a suitable DC-to-AC power inverter. Each Segway PT typically consumes approximately 140 Watts of power while charging. However, due to charger startup requirements, we recommend that inverters have power capacity of at least 350 Watts for each Segway PT being charged. Power inverters that produce either square or sinusoid waveform output are suitable for charging the Segway PT.

Dispose of an old sensor the same way you would dispose of an old car battery. Facilities exist in most communities to handle this type of waste. Yes. We do this to serve you better and more efficiently. Please download the form to obtain the RMA here .

Yes, the same dynamic stabilization technology is utilized in the new models. Some parts of the balance sensor assembly (BSA) and other parts of the machine have changed to take advantage of new technology, but the fundamental principles used in creating the original Segway PT have remained consistent. New technology has been added where appropriate to support the new LeanSteer and wireless InfoKey controller functionality.

Yes you can, as long as the voltage is between 90 and 260V, and 50 to 60 Hz AC (this covers most of Europe and Asia). You might need an adaptor at the end of the power cord that goes into the wall outlet. Alternatively you can use a standard International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) cord (typically used for computers and monitors) designed for the country in which you are residing. The adaptors and IEC cables can be found at any electronics store.

Any computer purchased with Trent funds should be recorded in Trent's inventory of equipment, and Trent's Financial Services has a form for users to remove this equipment from inventory. You can download a copy of this form (PDF format) from the Financial Services website at: http://www.trentu.ca/financialservices/purchasing/forms/equip_invent_control.pdf Copy any needed data from the computer to your Trent network (Novell) drive space, another computer, DVDs or CDs.

Don't dispose of those old batteries until you use PULSE POWERTM. After 4, 5 or more charge/use cycles PULSE POWERTM in many cases will restore "dead batteries" -batteries that have developed "memory effect" (voltage depression) to original or near original capacity. Unfortunately, not all batteries can be saved, depending on the history of the battery, physical damage occurs, shorted or leaky cells develop and in these cases usually the battery cannot be saved.

Dispose of HHW by attending a county sponsored HHW Round-Up, scheduled throughout the County of Los Angeles (phone 1-800?98-TOXIC to learn more about the HHW Round-ups). The facility is funded by the Cities of Redondo Beach and Manhattan Beach and a grant from the California Integrated Waste Management Board The Community Hazardous Collection Facility also has 5-gallon containers of unused paint available for free. Call (310) 318-0663 X 4395 for more information.

These items are considered hazardous waste and cannot be collected by our garbage trucks.

Our office does not handle battery disposal at UNH. The UNH Office of Environmental Health and Safety (OEHS) handles UNH policies, regulations, and management of any waste that could be hazardous. Since passage of the Mercury-Containing and Rechargeable Battery Management Act of 1996, use of mercury in batteries was phased out in the U.S. (This act also regulates the proper disposal of nickel cadmium batteries, small sealed lead-acid batteries, and other regulated batteries.
