Will look forward to sharing and reading other's experiences with this one.
So far, it was shipped to us with a charger rated for for 160V - 240V input, we need a US 120V version and are waiting for that... The unit also shipped with no instructions whatsoever... |

Resolved the initial problem.
Turned out to be a battery wire that had slipped off during shipping. Connected it and the scooter worked. Managed to get a whole 15 minutes of use out of it before it failed. Popped it open and examined it - the electrical harness inside was fried due to cheap connectors that could not handle the current load. Fixed that with better connections - only to find that the electronic throttle control is also fried, thus the on/off switch and throttle no longer work. Made in China (go figure...) After enough problems with this thing - We've finally decided we're going to take electric guts out and mount a small gas motor on the frame and use it as a gas powered scooter since the frame is decent and cool looking. Meanwhile, gonna give the ol' TrailSport Buffalo a pull and go put-put around the block. Happy scootin, - Oren |
