Easy to use Mobile Phone
If you find mobile phones difficult to use , small buttons, dialing a number can be hard work then check out the Big Button Mobile phone from Maplin's,

Code A04KF, £59.99 and it has a one button SOS caller and big display. GREAT for my mother, but she still forgets to take it with her when out on the scooter, fix that by fixing it to the scooter.

Mobility Scooter - concern, eBay Warning
I had a Aquasoothe travelite to repair, the gearbox was faulty so I contacted the suppliers and they would not deal with me, only the customer, the words were "get the customer to contact me directly so we can sort something out, the customer in question then rang me up and explained what was offered, please be careful as it may appear to be discounted scooter however it still costing you a lot of money .
ProRider Scooters are 90% shoprider (parts) and I do rate Shoprider however the front suspension on some models can be off putting, very stringy so I have modified a number of these for my customers when out of warranty.

For those of you that look on eBay for spares , scooters etc..
AGM are not GEL so please fit only GEL batteries as recommended by the mobility scooter manufactures.

Throttle pots on eBay are mostly the incorrect type, they need too much movement to get the correct resistance and they don't last long..

Scooters again, extreme care required here when buying, yes you can get a bargain but beware there are lots of lemon scooters out there for sale, if it's sounds noisy check it out, is the gearbox badly worn. Make a video of the scooter running then call me, I'll let you know where the noise is coming from and so on.
Stair Lifts - Repair
Stair lifts repairs are now undertaking using the same charge structure. , So no call out and No Fix no Fee.

Light controlled throttle
I'm working on a new type of throttle control where you move your hand to go faster or slower, this is a case of resting your palm on a flat surface and moving it over a light source and this in turn controls the speed.

A increasing number of customers are asking for a easier way to control their scooter speed. So watch this space

Scooter of the Month
Pride Legend XL8

What a super scooter, fast, easy to control and reliable.

The ride can be hard but they are so controllable, i suggest that you have the types at a slighly lower psi than recommended for a smoother ride.

They use a eGis controller that's also used by the Freerider Kensington another lovely fast scooter. With 55Amp fitted you can go for miles. Make sure the gearbox is well lubricated.
Latest Research Project
Latest experiment is , a self controlled scooter, so how does it work ?,well say you go to the shops crossing roads etc., You have to do this once in learn mode and once that completed the scooter will drive itself using GPS and various sensors for roads , people and animals on the pavement, The sonar sensors allow you to navigate around shops etc, the steering is controlled via a RAM device connected to the steering column, so who will need this ? well , blind people for a start, those with no arms or very weak, this gives independents to those who never experienced it before, so how safe is it ? well I used it for about 52 trips to date and not one incident , it always learning and can be overridden. Currently the system requires a laptop however I'm working on a embedded solution. So price wise I'm looking at about £600 and there will be restrictions on what scooters it can be installed on.
Charging using your Scooter batteries while mobile
Ever wanted to charge your scooter battery when out and about

Now you can using a invertor 12V to 230V from Maplins

click here

£24.99

Please keep on a eye on your car battery as it would not be very funny if you have fully charged your scooter but flattened your car battery so you cannot get home..
Beating the Cold
Now it started to get very cold , here are some ideas to staying warm, Click & Heat pads they work very well and give off about 30 minutes heat, simply boil them to reactivate. Battery heated gloves from Maplin work well but can be bulky. Here's the link for all of Maplins Heated Clothing. A Heater that you can insert under your coat, £20, 12v, they operate off your mobility scooter batteries. Stay Warm this winter.
Mission Statement
The question I’m asked a lot is “how comes you’re so cheap ?”, well simply put, no overheads such as a Shop , no Staff and I believe in making a small profit whereas the trend in this line of business is to make a very large profit at the expense of the elderly , infirm and disabled. I will never refuse to help anybody at the expense of making a profit.
