Each state has their own rules for gas and electric. New York and Ohio are highly restrictive concerning scooters and mopeds. Here one has to buy a complete vehicle from an approved list. Six miles away in Pennsylvania a motor with automatic transmission is fine up to 25 mph.
An electric motor depends on copper wire and soldered connections to work. Heat and vibration can affect them.
Frank, I recall Aqua Bug being based in Melville, NY but I don't know who designed the engine. I know the literature on my Bumble Bike engine said that a chain saw company in Ontario designed their product.
