How did you rig that? I've thought about plugging an inverter into the cig lighter and plugging the built in charger on my scooter into it, but I figured it might be to much load. Do you have it plugged into an inverter or tapped straight into the scooter battery to charge off the alternator?

Not planning to sell the showroom-like 300D, Sunil, but what is your offer? Wilton

I plug inverter into cig lighter (12v DC in/120v AC out); plug factory-supplied scooter charger into inverter (120v AC in/28v DC out). However, I do have another charger that plugs into cig lighter to charge scooter directly (12v DC in/28v DC out), but it has a loose connection at plug right now.

The offer is what you'll take for it if/when you decide to stop driving. I'm really not counting on you selling it until then. But at that time, I would like first dibs on buying it. On 4/2/07, wilton strickland [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: I plug inverter into cig lighter (12v DC in/120v AC

are you serious? is it stand-up or sit-down in nature? I was seriously thinking about getting a vespa for that exact reason. On 4/1/07, wilton strickland [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Going to shop at Lowe's (hrdwre/bldng cntr) in few minutes on my Diesel-electric scooter. Wilton
