Does this come with a 250 watt or 350 watt electric motor. Also, are extra batteries sold for this? Thinking about buying for our 8 year olds birthday. Says ages 8+, but also see reviews that its not big enough for older kids?

We got one for Christmas for our kids My 8 year old can ride it but his knees are almost to the handle bars so he won't be on it for much longer. Plus it wears te battery down quicker when he rides it. We are going to go with a gas powered one for him next time, my 6 year old twins have a ball though. Oh and my 8 year old is small for his age.

The classic (about $45) has a 200w motor, weighs 5.5 pounds and comes with a 1 year warranty. The elite (about $100) has a 250w motor, weighs 7 pounds and comes with a 3 year warranty. (Note: all info from the yonanas website.)

It goes 8-11 miles per hour. This is perfect for a 5 year old, at 7 he will want something that has a little more power. My son got this as an Xmas present when he was 3.5 and now he is 5.5. He still likes it but he wants more speed and power. Can you add another battery or replace the current battery?

This is a 700 watt motor, and is usually priced at $500!!!! Very comparable to kitchen aid. The HB only has a 350 watt motor. This one is very hi tech. I has 2 seperate motors. 1 that runs the beaters (mixes the stiffest dough-no problem. The other motor runs the bowl turner. GO FOR THIS ONE DEFINITELY!!!!

I forgot to mention the motor and battery can all be replaced under the 50% plan after thirty days. When getting used to this truck run it in "training mode" first. Once you can control it without wrecking a lot or just flipping it over go for "sport mode". Training mode cuts the power to 50% which still makes for a quick truck btw. Sport mode for a beginner is just insane lol.

This is what I bought for mine. Minn Kota Endura C2 30-lb. Thrust Trolling Motor with 30" Shaft. I then bought a 3-In-1 Jump Starter And Power Supply from Harbour Freight to power it. Seems to work pretty well, but have not used it for extended time so not sure how long the battery will last at one outing.

Hmm....I purchased the E 200 and the E 300 electric scooters.I don't feel my 8 year old girl is ready for either one quite yet ... she is not a daredevil with a razor scooter.I actually got the E200 for my boy at age 9 ... he was fine with it and even fine with the E300If your child is coordinated and really good with a razor ... it should be fine.None of our family is over 170 lbs and the E200 model will get going easily without pushing off , this could intimidate small children at first.good luck.

The motor is AC. I had to add a long cord to enable mounting on a ceiling. The problem with most battery operated motors is that they don't have enough power to handle more than a few ounces.

I'm sorry I can't help. My grandson used the motor in a school project which unfortunately was destroyed by some unknown person at his school. We did not keep the booklet that came with the motor. I hope one of the other purchasers will have the information you need.

I do not recomend this item. You have to buy the motor, battery, control, on/off switch....it's a hasle!!

it has a 65 watt motor, most of this size are at least 140 watts. This is what they call a "cheater" size.

To anyone else wondering the same thing to this question. It uses 2 AAA batteries. I didn't see the details about this anywhere else on the page about this. But if you are wondering the same thing I did then this is the answer. 2 AAA batteries. I'm contacting Amazon.com regarding the person who answered me and let them know that there are trolls on http://amazon.com. Little kids should not be allowed to answer questions.

It (was) 1300 Watts. But I would not recomend the Item anymore . It worked fine for less than one year and the little Knop on the Handle (connection) broke. then the heating element broke also.( I was told by the Company to ship it back in the Original !! box) Repair is more $$ then what i paid for. I bought a similar one (less $$ ) at an Aldis Store. And it works fine. Also 1300 Watts. Hope that helps ? good luck

I would very much recommend a bigger motor. If you are on a budget, I'd recommend a used one with a bigger motor.
