Interestig, but I think I have seen similar "inventions" before, though it was not an existing suitcase that was converted - if my memory serves me well, it was a red or yellow hardshell designed to contain all the ingredients for a personal mobility EV (mostly indoor targeted IIRC) BTW, the US patent for this idea appears to be from 1988: http://www.google.com/patents/US4913252 So, if patentn attorneys do their work, it can't be patented anywhere after this, since the invention is published and considered State of the Art. But you never know - he might have "applied for patent" (patpend) and probably will receive a message he does not want to hear very soon...
