That our scooters are basically forward thrust and electricity generators that are very efficient on gas? I find it very cool that as long as my scooter has a good battery, I'll never be stranded. And even if my battery went out I could still charge my phone and other electronics in an emergency with just the engine rolling at idle. I think everybody should install a cigarette lighter/charger in their scooter. Personally mine is literally two wires running under my seat and into my battery compartment where it is seated directly on the battery.

Hmmmmm, forward thrust, move some electrons,....how about heat? They're pretty good at that. I've warmed my cockles a few times on the engine and pipe.

Yes. I have lit my cigar in my '61 Buick with the factory cigar lighter. I've charged my phone and gps as well.

with the 11 pole stator I can give a car a boost . Just let it run about 5 or 10 minutes was enough to get the car to start . Yes I have thought of attaching an alternator to the final drive shaft or coupling a generator head .
