Hi guys i am trying to work out the best way forward....

As to making the best but not nessasery the most expencive pack .

But i know what you thinking one cancels out the other..

Well reall what i am conciddering is a life po4 cell .?

Am i right in saying that the cell pack size i/e amp ah 60 + is more efficent than lets say use have the ampage two x30..?

Because there is less trermanals inthe bigger cells therefor less waste of accsesive materails x weight .???

And also power draw is lot slower.?

But really put it down to scooter normal or loose plastic .
As from previus blogs .and handle bar wobble was normal ??.

Sounded like plastic mud guard was little loose so check all around mud guard and thought some thing was caught .
nothing seems loose so. after another few months hering this sound on and off
Again. do the same again so thought the front wheel calliper was loose .

hi all ive just come back from Tenerife .
and saw loads of vectrix.es and also on the last day managed to sneek.in
to the local constabulary hq. i/e in the police station and and went throw the big black doors that
am shoure no one escapes from.
and low and behold the jewl in the crown loads of vectrixes getting fed all around me i was outnumbered.
i had no chance and a foreign woman said to me think she was speking spanich said what you doing in hear....
are you police.manurm urm no no me me .

hi all just been wondering. about the temperature display .
on the vectrix and wondering if we could devise something that would keep the temperature display showing all the time ??
as don't really know why it is not as the more info the better in my books.
as the cost of the replacment batteries are so so expencive that i don't know why it hasn't been thought of before..??????????????????????
and we could keep a constant eye on whats going on . as i don't really like to stop regularly to check this .
