Does your kid have to be on the move all the time? In that case the Razor E125 electric scooter could well be the perfect pressie for their next birthday or Christmas.

The manufacturer – Razor recommends this scooter for youngsters of 8 years old and over – the maximum weight capacity is 120lbs – however, I have known 5 year olds zip about on these and I also know of many adults who like to “borrow” their child’s E125 scooter!

You will find that the Razor E125 electric scooter can boast a high-torque motor which is driven by chain, this, I am told is far more durable and gives a much improved performance than the E100 which was (perhaps still is?) belt driven. It also has a twist grip throttle which most youngsters get to grips with fairly quickly, although my sources tell me that some younger kids take a while to get used to it.

One fact that I should point out is that the E125 unlike its bigger counterparts does not start from a standing position. The rider has to manually get up to a speed of 3 mph and then with the press of a trigger the motor will kick in. Once the motor is running is is possible to reach a pretty impressive 10 mph which for “tweens” is an ideal speed, enough for some incredible fun but not too fast that it would cause problems when ridden on the side walk. Stopping is just as important as the speed and you will find that the Razor E125 electric scooter is fitted with a front, hand operated brake.

The Razor E125 electric scooters power is generated from a rechargeable batter which is best charged overnight. Once it has a full charge it will give around 40 minutes of power. There are some who complain that this really is not long enough but for the most part it seems to be of no consequence because everyone just loves these scooters.

The things which most parents love about the Razor E125 are that it takes just a few minutes to assemble and it can be folded down and put in the truck of the car so kids can take it on vacation or family days out and makes storage non problematic.

One of the biggest problems (if you can call it that) in any interpersonal relationship usually crops up around gift-giving time. You know the time I mean, right: Christmas, birthdays, father’s day, and so forth.

The problem is that it’s difficult to give someone a gift they really want. If you give them something practical, it’s not really much of a gift because if they need it they’re going to end up getting it eventually in any case. And if you give them some off the wall item, they probably won’t use it. After all, gifts are supposed to be treasured, not discarded.

So here is a great gift idea for anyone who travels, or for anyone who takes care of business on a regular basis. A tactical pen is both practical and unusual. You can use it all day long as a pen (hey, we all need to have a pen handy, right?), but because it is intentionally manufactured to be strong, light-weight, and virtually indestructible, tactical pens are also useful as weapons of last-resort when you need a legal force multiplier that won’t raise any eyebrows in the boardroom.

There are two main types of tactical pens: those that look like weapons, and those that simply serve the purpose without calling attention to themselves. If you’re gift recipient is interested in cool gadgets, you probably want to go with the scary-looking version. But if you think the gift will be used every day in diverse environments, your best bet is to give a pen that looks like a pen, not like a deadly weapon.

Even if it doesn’t look like something Rambo would carry, a good tactical pen still serves as a strong force multiplier that works very well in a dangerous situation. And since it’s not an obvious weapon, folks have a legitimate use for these pens. Who can complain about carrying a well-designed pen, right?

In the past, lots of folks bought tactical pens because it was a weapon that was easy to get past airline security. These days, on the other hand, security guards at the airport often seize tactical pens. They reason, as so many others have, that it can be used as a weapon. So it’s not certain that you can hold onto your tactical pen if you decide to travel by train — basically it’s up to the individual security team at your airport.

But don’t let that discourage you. Tactical pens are perfectly legal, and they’re mostly accepted in polite society too. There is little to no stigma attached to these writing implements.

And that’s why they’re such good gifts. Not only are they practical and useful, but they’re the sort of thing you can carry around with you all day long for a legitimate purpose.
