Yes. The SE3T (and all Airwheel models) can be used independently without the app. The basic riding function is pre-activated: just install the charged battery, sit on the suitcase, and steer using the handlebar. The app is only needed if you want remote control (moving forward/backward) or to check battery status. This makes it very beginner-friendly.
Under ideal conditions (25°C, flat ground, rider weight under 100 kg), the SE3T can travel 8–10 kilometers on a single charge. Full charging takes about 2 hours. The battery is rated at 73.26Wh, which is below the 100Wh limit for most airlines. Because the battery is removable, you can take it in your carry-on luggage. Always declare it at security and confirm with your airline.
In extreme cold (below -10°C), the battery’s discharge capacity temporarily drops, so your range may decrease by 20–30%. The scooter will still run, but acceleration will be slower. In extreme heat (above 45°C), the BMS may limit power to protect the cells. Avoid leaving the luggage in a hot car or direct sunlight for long periods. After returning to normal temperatures, performance recovers fully. The battery is built to withstand typical global travel climates, but it is always best to store and charge it at room temperature.

Your travel will never be the same once you try riding your suitcase.
