What was "hectic getting out and back into Wales"? Were there armed border guards checking ID or travel permit papers or something?

Unless they are a cyclist Or those damn scoot along electric scooters going round a roundabout the wrong way in the rain and dark in Nottingham I nearly drove into. Standing at a bus stop one skimmed against me in the same city bloke on it did apologize though. Sunday getting out the car in Bristol nearly mowed down again. I am glad I don't drive lorry's round big city's anymore some cyclists and those riders on those little scooters seem to think the poor driver of large vehicles should be able to see them. Presume it can be just as bad Stateside.

Got Yolanda's mobility scooter up and running today. Of course I didn't go and play in the snow to test it out 🙂 I think we know different.

Interesting controls. Is that button on the upper left for burnouts?

Interesting controls. Is that button on the upper left for burnouts? Couldn't quite work that out, looks like it has squiggly lines coming out the back of a scooter so don't know if it's some form of traction device in icey weather. Didn't light up or appear to do anything in the snow. Needs further investigation and testing in the snow me thinks 🙂

Here's a close up picture FrankenMech looks like it is some form of traction thing or whatever

That is why I suggested a burnout control. Maybe it locks/unlocks the differential if it has one. Have fun turning donuts in the snow. We are just getting rain at about 45°F tonight in Kansass.
Convert the lights to LED to save power or DEDs (Darkness Emitting Diodes) for stealth mode. 24v LED setups are difficult to obtain. I did find a very nice 10-30VDC headlight for my E-trike but I wired two 12VDC tail lights in series.

That's the launch control button. If you hold the horn, hazard and high beam buttons all together for 7 seconds that takes it to power level 11, indicated by the battery lights all turning purple. The combination of those 2 actions is the sole reason that the little anti-wheelie rollers are on that model.
If you're really lucky, the seat back will recline flat so you can ride in "Superman" mode for top speed runs.
They don't tell you this stuff in the manuals because there was a lot of trouble with Thursday morning drag racing in retirement communities.
