The brand new InMotion V12 EUC is the most powerful 16 inch electric wheel on the market and it has the biggest motor that InMotion has ever put into an electric unicycle. Special thanks Ewheels for loaning us this production model InMotion V12 electric unicycle.
The Inmotion V12 is a perfect EUC for riders of all skill levels. My evolving written review on the InMotion V12 EUC:

Hey jimmy, I just want to say I really appreciate you, and the videos you produce. Your videos really seem to focus on making sure you convey information to the viewer. For example, in your e bike video when you rode sur ron and Segway with your friend, you really prompted him to repeat summaries of the information he was giving. You seem like you really care about your audience, compared to other EUC youtubers. Appreciate you dude. I’m in Colorado as well, and I’ll definitely try to say hi if I ever see you riding.

Jimmy I just wanted to let you know. You are the one who gave me the idea to get an EUC. I started on my onewheel XR and usually watched your videos on that. However you started posting EUC videos more frequently and were the influence that got me to order a v12.

Very informative! You didn't comment on the rear light (or I missed it) - is it good? does it act as a brake light? You mentioned the wheel is IPX certified - is it officially certified or a self certification where the company says this is what they think it should be? Did you try altering the settings for braking or use a softer mode?

But you said the moment you played music while unboxing the v12 that the speakers sucked, they didn't have bass and now you say they are the best speakers? Also inmotion could wipe the map if they only had some more autonomy, maybe have a tier of wheels which would go like 80km(being optimistic here) and some that would go 150km+ (in terms of speed as long as it goes at least 50km/h safely it's great imo). They have water proofness which I still can't believe how people are paying thousands for something that is just "water resistant", it's ridiculous
