I keep after Ray and one of these years he may get around to building me a gasoline powered base for my chair. When I was in school we had a guy whose dad rigged him a chair that had a gasoline motor and was encased inboiler plate. It was called the green monster and that thing would wizz out at 35mph. I like the lights on your machine. Right now if I go putting around at night I use a dive light that Ray built for me out of some 6" pvc pipe. It really casts a good beam also but not like yours. Mine isn't attached to my scooter, I just set it up in by my basket. What I really wish that you could get for wheelchairs is a 4 speaker surround sound Am/Fm radio, tape and CD deck.
