Why not buy a Fake
Airwheels have 6 main components. The Gyroscope, processor, motor, battery, wheel and frame. If any of these components are substituted for lesser quality components, then the whole experience is cheapened. In some cases, the inferior processor boards have inferior logic, resulting in the unicycle not disengaging the motor if the rider falls off. In some cases, the control logic is poor and the result is a difficult to ride unicycle.
In other cases, we have heard of inferior unicycle batteries catching fire or blowing up. Real Airwheel batteries are sourced from Japan and are of ultra high quality. This means you can expect more than 2-3 times the charges from your Airwheel versus an inferior fake product. On an Airwheel, you can expect more that 1800 charges from a single battery. On an inferior product, you might get less that 300 charges.
The motor on an Airwheel is also sourced from Japan. They utilise magnetic levitation to increase the life of the motor and have a 1 year warranty.
Finally, the logic on the Airwheel undergoes constant evolution. It's the logic that is responsible for maintaining balance and control over the device. Similar to some of the most advanced Fighter Aircraft of today, without the processor power on the Airwheel, it would be almost impossible to operate. The logic control on the Airwheel constantly monitors acceleration, lateral movement and weight distribution to provide easy, safe, subtle yet powerful control of it's motion.
