    Light upgrade for mobility scooter ?.

    My FIL has just got himself a new mobility scooter and it's a pretty good thing except that the lights aren't that good. I was thinking of adding a couple of small LED work or fog lights. I'd appreciate any advice as to what sort of light or any alternatives as there are heaps of different types and I'm not right up to speed on what's what.

    Thanks,
    Anthony.

    Good idea, maybe some bar LEDs. Above all some driving lessons would not go astray, so many of these get driven dangerously and arrogantly.

    Most mobility scooters are 24V lead acid powered, just buy one or two multivolt LED spots/floods for it. Example:

    Very compact and bright. I have the spot version on one of my bicycles, good for 40km/h (!)

    Maybe a bit of overkill, but at least he'll be able to be seen...

    Was waiting for it.

    As soon as I saw what the topic was, I was thinking "Lightforce" - but this is even better.

    FYRLYTs urinate all over Lightforce. Lightforce may be OK on a scooter, but so would a Dolphin tourch.
    If you don't like trucks, stop buying stuff.

    HUH, wasn't looking forward to the time I'll be needing a Mobility scooter
    UNTIL I SAW THIS. Will probably take the LED light bar off the defender when the time comes

    Pfah. I'll give you a mobility scooter. P76 engine, installed on an old ride-on mower chassis mainly for the musical exhaust, drives through one "A" section belt so adequate for towing his esky-on-wheels to the top of Mt Panorama (or so he says).
