=== E-TWOW GT SE ===
-----
For a time, while it worked, these ''electric-two wheels'' were my holy grail. This was my electric scooter of choice when it worked as intended. It solved almost all of my issues with the Apollo Explore 2021, including

* Solid tires
* Front-wheel drive
* Portability and foldability
* Bluetooth and application support

* Significantly above average aftersales support

I'll never have to worry about flats or become boggled down with routine maintenance... or such was the intention. This device also has functional mobile application support, allowing the user to remotely lock the device, and monitor its performance. Unlike the Explore, this electric scooter can be folded down with the press of a heel in less than two seconds, and conveniently store itself under a bus seat. Taking the compromise of ten less kilometers per hour was an easy decision.

The GT SE did essentially require one modification out of the box, however. There exists a set of buzzers that double as the horn of the vehicle. These buzzers trigger with every press of any button on the device, including simply turning it on. It is loud enough to disturb my neighborhood on a brisk morning.

So the very first thing I did, before I rode it even once, was disassemble the device and remove the buzzer speakers entirely from the motherboard. ''Much better.''

Unfortunately, my device has been plagued with controller issues, making the device present itself as completely dead even after charging. eWheels has sent out multiple controllers each time it happened, overnight, free of charge, but this is the maintenance that I came to avoid. In addition, many of the screws have been damaged after servicing the device repeatedly, meaning I am currently without a way to replace the controller this time.

Currently clocked at around 1250m travelled.
