Mobility Scooter From

From where can I find good mobility scooter online in UK? Any ideas? Would be grateful if anyone can answer?Thanks in advance.

Hi Aravind C,

There are really only three popular mobility scooter brands: Craftmatic, Rascal and Pride. In the UK, Craftmatic is very popular. Therefore, I would first start with their website.

Here, are a couple of retailers that sell scooters online although I am not familiar with them personally:

Hope this helps,

GT-3 is the Worlds Fastest Mobility Scooter designed for the not so old driver that does not want to feel like they are driving a "Disabled ...

Some one in Australia did but I don't know the story yet.

Depending on what the reasons are for stopping/suspending someone from using their scooter.

If they did not have a legitimate reason to stop me from using the scooter, then I would fight it.

But if the person is a danger to themselves or others, such as riding the scooter on the road like a regular vehicle, causing traffic build up, or near misses with road traffic, and they have been warned then, then the reason for suspending a person from using their scooter is legitimate.

I live in Victoria and a man died year or so ago on his scooter, he lived around the corner from me, and he would often ride his scooter in the middle of the road, blocking the road, even nearly causing many accidents, he had been spoken to by the police after many complaints & near misses, sadly he ran out of luck.

My mobility scooter has a 270W motor. It operates with two 12V 12AH batteries. The battery charger works only with 110 current. Voltage converters seem to be rated by watts. What capacity voltage converter would I need to purchase to recharge my batteries in Europe? I don't want to tote around any more bulk or weight than necessary. Same question for a 450W scooter.
My charger is 2amps.

Rascal, your main question is the minimum capacity to charge those 2 batteries, and how long that it will take. Generally, chargers are rated at a volts and amps rating. I'm willing to bet that your 2 batteries are wired in series. You would need a charger that supplies at least 27 watts, or 1.2 amps, at 24 volts.
Now, let's change this around a little bit and get something that you don't need an electrical outlet for, and would go just about anywhere that you want to go. Look up "fuel cells". These nifty devices are small, but can charge your battery litterally anywhere, so long as you have fuel to power it. Generally they use propane, so a 1 or 2 pound cylinder would provide easy power to recharge your batteries. This means that with a little planning, you would be free to explore where you would never consider going before. The fuel cell burns a fuel, with air, and creates electricity. What I have seen, and asked about are fairly small, but can deliver the voltage, and current that you need. Their efficiency is over 85% for energy in, versus energy out.

I want to buy an electric (non mobility scooter) and use it within my town in New Jersey however I am wondering something What is the speed limit a person with an electric scooter can go before it becomes illegal and does it really require a moped / motorcycle license even if it goes 19 mph?

19mph

I have an 18 month old mobility scooter in north London, but I am having trouble giving it away. Can anyone suggest a place, a person or an organisation that would appreciate what is an expensive piece of equipment? Thanks for your help.

You could contact your local GP Surgery as I am sure they may know someone who is desperate for a mobility scooter but cannot afford the cost. I am a Practice Manager for a GP in South London and could name you at least two people from my surgery who would jump at the chance to make their life easier and open up the outside world to them once more.
