Cincinnati’s The Garage OTR further expands into public safety market

Region’s electric transportation hub now official provider for Segway SE-3 Patroller

 

CINCINNATI – A one-stop shop for electric transportation needs, The Garage OTR is now the region’s official provider of the SE-3 Patroller, Segway’s new three-wheel device for the public safety market. To debut this exciting product in the region, The Garage OTR will welcome all interested first responders, city officials, security personnel and media representatives to a product demonstration on Tuesday, August 26 from 9 a.m. -11 a.m. or Wednesday August 27 from 1 p.m. – 3 p.m. Representatives will be on hand from Segway of Cincinnati, Segway of Ohio and Segway Inc. to give Patroller demonstrations and answer questions about procurement.

A natural extension of Segway’s Patroller product line, the SE-3 Patroller is an ideal match for law enforcement, fire departments and security missions that require larger vehicles, a more obvious presence, or accommodation of riders frequently mounting and dismounting the vehicle.  The large cargo areas, extended range and accessibility/maneuverability of the SE-3 make it suitable for EMS and fire department applications as well.

The SE-3 Patroller is powered by multiple rechargeable Lithium Ion batteries that can be charged at any standard electrical outlet or swapped out for replacement batteries to allow for continuous use. It also includes rugged Whelen emergency lights, headlight, brake light, siren and lockable storage. The SE-3 Patroller is also equipped with a 4.3” color display that is sunlight-readable, providing vibrant, easy-to-understand operational data including speed, battery life and distance travelled.  Users can also charge accessories such as phones, radios and lights on board via the 12V charger.  To view a video featuring the new Segway SE-3 Patroller visit, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e8_MaIz8z44#t=22.

“Aside from the reliability of the Segway brand, the SE-3 Patroller is an ideal product for law enforcement officials with its reverse capability and ability to easily fit through doorways,” says The Garage OTR owner Shawn Jenkins. “Other advantages such as rider detect safety features and anti-rollover technology make this a great option for police and security customers.”

As an addition to the Segway Patroller product line, the SE-3 Patroller is a tough and durable solution that can handle varied terrains and travel at higher speeds.  The SE-3 promises to be a valued member of the Segway Patroller product line; joining the incredibly successful i2 SE and x2 SE Patrollers, the Segway SE-3 Patroller delivers a new standard in three-wheel personal electric transportation for the police, security and public safety markets.

The Garage OTR recently expanded into a full service bicycle shop and all-inclusive retailer and service provider for electric bicycles.  The Garage OTR continues to serve as the home of Segway of Cincinnati, the area’s Authorized Segway Dealer,  Authorized Tour provider and service center.  For more information on the SE-3, i2 SE, or x2 SE Patrollers, or a complete list of products and services, visit www.thegarageotr.com.
