How fast do I have to be going for this to work? Does it whistle at 25mph?

I know when I pull in my driveway at night I'm only going 10 mph and the deer just stop and look ay me. I've been using deer whistles for over twenty years and have not hit a deer We lived in New Hampshire woods for 16 years and now in Illinois in corn country 8 years and have never hit a deer yet( knock on wood) lol

I have no idea. I've been using them for years and they're either working or I've been lucky. I'm in a heavily populated deer area. For 5$ it's worth a try.

I'm not sure. It might work, as long is not over 75mph. I have blow into it with my mouth and it works. I have driven with it out the window and it seems pretty accurate. Not to sure about the moist part. It just might work.

I think the speed estimate is pretty accurate. About 20mph on even ground, rider weight contingent. I'm like 15 or so pounds over the maximum suggested weight for this bike, but I saw it clocked today by one of those automated speed traps at 17mph without peddling on a slight incline. Though I can't imagine it goes faster than 25 even with peddling, with the exception of down hill. It doesn't have the gears for higher speeds. You would have to be peddling pretty fast to get anything over 20mph, but the bike is noticeably faster than a cheap i-Zip electric bike. Sorry for such a delayed response. I don't have a speedometer, so I didn't really think I could answer this, until I saw the speed sign today.

You would definitely need to ride the brakes to keep it from going to fast. It might also be difficult to use on rough terrain.

My almost 7 year old son steals it for a ride. I will tell you that it isn't very fast about 3-5 mph if that. My now four year old still rides it everywhere! Hope this helps

It goes pretty darn fast. I was impressed with the speed and battery life. It is a circle race boat, so it turns better right than left.

I have no way of testing actual true speed, but I'm sure it will travel at the advertised 25 MPH. It is FAST and tons of fun to drive. Mine has been flipped once but it is very good and stable if and when driven properly. I am only a beginner to intermediate at running fast boats and my Whiplash 24 is the most boat for the money of the five boats I have. Don't hesitate to buy!!!

It will right about 25mph, however, it really depends on rider's weight and road condition.

This scooter stock will do 20mph with a regen braking on hills to slow it down. Mine has an aftermarket controller with no speed limit, won't go over 25mph on the flats with no headwind.

Hello barbara! I think this version can be upgraded to the faster version with newer parts up to 70mph but 35mph is pretty fast if your not in some type of competition racing. Again i recommend the fast charger 45min to recharge and rechargable batteries for transmitter. Hope this helps!! I'm 40yrs old and its pretty strudy and fast out of box with no upgrades Lol!!

The basic car zips along pretty fast at 25mph. You can then upgrade to brushless motor at 50 mph. BUT Trust me the 25 mph is fast enough for kids. (Spirnt speed)

Its claims for up to 60mph, this is probably close to accurate thoug I have never put a speed gun on it

Hi AlexThe Pill has enough horsepower so that you may hear it no matter how fast you are riding. Of course the faster you go the more outside noise from wind etc you will hear but it has worked well for me.

4 MPH. I am usually between 1.5 and 2.5. NEVER above 3.5.4MPH is plenty. And it will help the motor last longer.

Hey there! 200 mps is pretty fast lol, that would be about 720,000 MPH. ;) No, but in all seriousness, I've taken it up to about 90 MPH on a 9 hour road trip and it held up like a champ. I personally secure it with some rope/twine to a fixed part of the car on the top ball joint as insurance. Would recommend you do this practice as well!

I weigh 240--and though the belt makes a slight noise at the beginning, lifting up one foot to start walking stops it and gets the belt going. I typically walk 1.5MPH because I am using a computer (mouse, touchscreen), so it works better at that speed, but I did start out at .5MPH and it was ok!

No, this isn't a whistler. Best to set a timer to checkup on it if you need to step away.
