My wife has been buying little do-dads for her crafts on the Temu app lately. She surprised me a few days ago with a handy little photo booth that she bought for me through the app....

 It's a small photo booth, only measuring 9" x 9.5" x 8.5"...

Power comes from a USB cord

(It seems a bit short, but works fine when plugged into the multi port USB charger that sits on my workbench... A free gift from AARP. LOL)

So how does it work???

I rode one of these in Florida a few weeks back and really wanted one for running nearby errands now I’m back home…

Segway electric scooter - hits around 15, has traction control and ABS braking (!), regenerative charging when you brake or ride downhill, super-bright head and brake lights, digital display…

Charges in 3.5 hours and has a 15 mile range or so (although not if you’ve got it cranked to flat-out mode like I have currently) and you can install a software upgrade that will give you another 10mph or so if you’re feeling brave.  Fun little summer toy!

They have had those available to rent around the Kansas City area. Keeps the Med A Vac guys busy, especially on the weekends late at night.

Yeah, you definitely need to watch where you’re riding - gotta dodge all the pebbles and cracks in the sidewalk for sure!

They tend to have them around an area called The Plaza and other entertainment areas around town. A little liquid courage and not being familiar with the handling is a recipe for disaster.
