Well at least the learning curve isn't negative so far.

It is a 60v pack, five 12v batts. The 110/220 inverter was the problem. Oh, it worked, just not well enough. Made an adapter cord out of an old 220 dryer cord, an outlet box, and an outlet. Outstanding- it works! Full charge in about an hour. Installed the pack and the wheel spins when it's up on the centerstand! Progress!

Test drive: has four speeds, sure seems faster than 18 mph. Am lost as to best operating methods and of course haven't figured out all the controls either.
