Among the modern achievements of technology, children's cars on the accumulator are gaining more and more popularity, which are in high demand among kids of different ages. But for all the apparent availability of this purchase, it has not only pluses, but also minuses, therefore, before making a decision to purchase, it makes sense to familiarize yourself with them.
Advantages of a child's car
Under the general concept of "a car on a battery" among the inhabitants, there is a whole group of vehicles that carry out their movement thanks to batteries that are charged from the mains. These can be quads, motorcycles, scooters and even construction equipment, which differ in appearance and price. A number of these vehicles assumes control from the remote control, by analogy with any household appliance, which makes it possible to use the machine as an analogue of a stroller or a children's bicycle with a handle for those who are just taking their first steps. The advantages of this invention are obvious:
- such a toy is interesting for a child and invariably arouses increased attention of peers during a walk;
- it is convenient for parents in the event that the baby moves independently with difficulty and can replace the usual stroller.
Its flaws
Children's cars have even more disadvantages:
- they are rather cumbersome and not very convenient for standard apartments, since appropriate areas are required for free movement;
- a flat surface is required for movement, therefore, you can not count on the fact that the machine will fly off-road and not get stuck in ditches;
- the mass of the car is quite weighty, therefore, it is not too easy to lower it down the stairs or drag it over off-road sections;
- with regular use, the batteries fail and stop holding charging, therefore the duration of the car's movement without recharging is significantly reduced;
- despite the fact that sometimes you can find information about the successful use of such cars in the winter season, in practice it is far from reality, since the cold not only negatively affects the batteries themselves, reducing their duration of operation, but can also lead to deformation of the very the plastic from which the car body is made. And it is simply impossible to predict how he will behave in the cold.
What else should you pay attention to
When choosing battery-powered cars, you should remember that their price is directly related not only to the degree of popularity of the company that produces them, or design features, but also to the type of batteries used. Lithium lithiums last best and last, while lead ones are more affordable, but reduce the prospective service life of the vehicle. There is also a weight threshold for a passenger in cars and often varies from 20 to 30 kg, therefore light plastic cars are more focused on kindergarten children. They also differ in height: the lower the car, the younger its driver and the slower it is. In general, we can confidently say that such a toy will be a wonderful gift for a child of any age, but it would be naive to expect that it really is an analogue of an adult car.
