> The Onewheel GT, Onewheel Pint X, Onewheel Pint, and Onewheel Plus XR will receive a firmware update that will add a new warning “Haptic Buzz” feedback that riders can feel and hear when the vehicle enters an error state, is low on battery, or is nearing its limits and needs to slow dow

What the ever loving fuck is the "error state". Fucking websites and laptops can have "error states"

Vehicles shouldn't have "error states" or they shouldn't exist.

Also if it buzzes when you go too fast people will deliberately attempt to make it buzz.




Ever heard of the Check Engine light on a car? Error states for the Onewheel include “battery got too cold” and “battery got too warm” for example.


Fair point
