Hi Jonathan I import these to New Zealand where they qualify as mobility scooters under our laws, just as your scooter qualifies as a pedal assist there.These vids are just me learning the system until I have my own vids to post here. I haven't given too much info in them, other than showing off the scooters abilities.
+Familystore Ross Hi I wasn't sure they would comply there after looking at some of the rules, which seem to differ from place to place. The 3 wheel one has a top speed of 25kph and the 4 wheel one can easily be reduced to 25. Our web site is www.mynv.nz and I would be more than happy to work towards having them in Australia if they are allowed there. We are still in the testing stages here, but so far we have 30k range from 1 set of batteries and 70k for 2 sets.
Hi Rawdy, yes Lithium do fit in these scooters and surely have some advantages like, less weight, faster charging and higher battery density, but they equally come with down sides, like exploding, bursting into flames and premature BMS failure. These are the obvious and well known issues with Lithium, but what you dont see is, the weight saving is also a safety hazzard. The lead weight is part of the design of the scooter and just as a sail boat relies on its heavy base or keel to stop the wind just blowing it over, our scooter also uses this low slung lead weight to provide its stability on inclines and in the wind.
I dont think there will be an issue, but all states have slightly different rules, you need to be sure it will comply there and it would help if you could tell me a bit about yourself, so i can make sure you get the right one for your needs. My email is garry@capitalcity.co.nz if you want to drop me a line. Thanx Garry
+Garry S I live in New York, in the US. I am partially disabled by arthritis, so I need one to do my shopping and getting around town. I am 4ft. 5in tall and 145 lbs.
Hi Elizabeth, i think our B4 would be the best fit for you and i can send one to the usa, but would need a street address and post code to get the shipping cost ... please do not put these here in public ... reply to the email address i have given you in the last reply. Thanx Garry
Hi Elmer, each state has different laws and rules ...some have lsv and some have nev and some have neither of these. Before you decide to get something like this you will need to make sure they will comply with your local rules and laws. Here we use them on the foot path under our mobility scooter rules but they may not be the same there. My email is available from our web site www.mynv.nz which is mentioned in the title. Thanx Garry
Makes absolutely no sense to use lead acid batteries nowadays, given the prices of lithium batteries. Instead of 5 heavy batteries, I use a single 60V 40Ah battery. Only 9,5 KGS, less than a 12V 40Ah around 11 KGS.
Hi Jessica, im in new zealand so have no idea of legality of these in Singapore and of course the price would depend of freight and duty and import costs etc. Here we use these as enclosed mobility scooters on the footpath, but in other countries they are legal for use on the road as mopeds, but you would have to check your laws.

Try large Lithium?

You cannot just drop a lithium-ion battery in place of lead acid one. You also need a charger specifically designed for lithium-ion batteries.
hello Gary, I was wondering if you ship to the U.S.?
