Just a heads-up for anyone thinking about getting a new eGo. They just announced that retail prices are increasing by $150 & shipping by $80 (Feb 15, I think...
Man that is still cheap-for what you get. This is the real deal Folks! I live in San Francisco, and it has gotten me through these really rainy days, and of...
The news that eGo is finally going with Lithium batteries is welcome. I just plugged the words "Ego" "Lithium" into Google and came up with this site: ...
Wow. Yeah, I want some lithium batteries because I think that would really solve my problems. I have an 8 mile commute and can re-charge but it really takes...
My understanding of this delay in getting to market is that it's mostly Modular energy's doing. I read about this tour de sol run in 2004 and got really...
So the fact is when these batteries become available they will be 1000 dollars???? Doesn't some chinese company want to get in in on this and charge 400-500...
I would say it's unknown what the price will be at this point. Someone at eGO might be able to say. Frankly I don't want batteries of any kind from China. The...
That's some very sound thinking there Aerowatt. Constantly chasing cheaper prices saves us money, but we rarely look at the big picture: American jobs going...
I agree, being very cost concious (which is prudent) we can loose site of unseen costs. On the topic of costs. I have seen people replace a household car with ...
Hello, I'm new to this group and already like the way you guys think. Though I don't yet have an Electric scooter, I like to break it down and think about how...
Welcome Ed I usually go by what the Government will allow as a per mile deduction for business use of a vehicle for tax purposes. It's an average of course and...
Ed, Back last summer when I was starting to seriously consider investing in an eGo and wanted to get a handle on how much it cost me to run my car, I did a...
I've got a new problem with my Ego II. I'll be going along full speed in Go Fast mode and maybe hit a little bump and the bike loses some power. Feels like it...
It does sound like key switch symptoms to me. If it's the chrome metal type as opposed to the newer black plastic one it (the chrome one) is more suseptable to...
Thanks Tony. I think you hit the nail on the head. My ego has been banished from parking inside the house by my old lady, and it's been parked in my backyard...
I noticed that there is a circular LED tail light on the eGO web site for sale under electrical parts. My tail light is a 12 volt incandescent bulb in a...
Sorry, I don't stock the silver ones. We just replace any that come up troubled with the black model. With the right tools it's pretty quick to modify the dash...
Low consumption headlights are a harder problem. You can do them with Luxeon LED's but the cost is high (read as, well over $100) HID is also a solution being...
Aerowatt, Thanks, I like easier! The LED bulb is a nice quick and easy kaizen improvement-nice job. Just one question-do I just look at the current bulb to...
Yes the bulb should have the voltage stamped into the metal of the base. Part, of the part number will be 12V or 24V. Aerowhatt ... kaizen ... 24V ... be ... ...
Aerowatt, Before I take the plunge on the LED globes, I had a question. The incandescent bulb for my eGO is 12v, 5W. If my memory serves me correctly, the...
I Hadn't measured LED the bulb, but decided to based on your question. It's good general information anyway. What I found is that with the 24 volt bulb the...
Hi all - I'm a new member here, from SoCal (Dana Point). I've had my Ego (basic model, in black) for a little over three years. Commute to work on it pretty...
Hi Andy Welcome to the group. I hope we hear more from you! I like the "daily rider" inputs best of all. Yeah the eGO draws attention. Sometimes when in a...
Hey Guys- Tonight I ran into a bit of difficulty. Lately the key switch has been has been cutting in and out occasionally. Well tonight after a 5 mile journey...
Thanks, I was wondering if it is a blown controller fuse? Where is that located exactly? Also, can I buy a key switch from any electrics store? Are there any ...
I would have thought perhaps the fuse too but since you were able to get flickers with the key switch fiddling it's almost a lead pipe cinch that it is the...
