I
am pleased to be able to provide this letter and photo in
support of the Lexis Light. I hope that my ringing
endorsement will help convince other men and women with
mobility problems to buy one. It is a product that exceeded
expectations.

I heard about the Lexis Light
from a happy owner that I introduced myself to at an airport
in November 2012. I bought it on the Internet in December
and was pleased from Day 1 by the service that you
provided. |

The scooter has provided me the
essential transportation capability that I need to keep going
after the weakness that polio and age did to my legs. I had
just about stopped traveling. I could not cope with airports,
hospitals or large buildings.
The scooter worked wonderfully on and off a cruise ship in
December, days after it was delivered. I learned how to open
even the heavily spring-loaded doors that you find in hotels and
on the ship.
As a retired aerospace engineer, I am impressed with the
excellent engineering that went into its design. As with an
aircraft, it is essential to keep weight down while still
providing strength enough to carry a big load. The structural
design of the frame does that. The seat is so comfortable that I
prefer to stay on the scooter rather than transferring to the
seats provided at airport terminals.
Because the scooter disassembles and reassembles so easily into
three components that I can lift, I can travel
alone in my small van, unload it and ride directly to
and from the aircraft, itself. Disassemble, have the ground
support people treat the three tagged parts like a baby carriage
and stow carefully. Reverse the process at the destination and
ride away.
My photo does not show it, but I have found that I can sling a
carry-on bag strap around the back of the seat and put a full
size garment bag in front of me and not overload the high torque
motor, even going up and down ramps and jetways. The battery is
so easy to install people don’t believe it. So far, it has given
me far more range than I need before recharging.
I have already purchased a second scooter to give to an assisted
living facility and continue to recommend it to men and women
who stop me on my travels. Travels that I would not be making
without the scooter. I have used it in City Hall, jury duty,
hospitals, convention centers, restaurants and hotels. Thanks to
the ADA, ramps are almost always available. If they are not, I
can easily lift the scooter over most curbs and single steps.

P.S. I am attaching two photos; the original and one that crops
out the man next to me, but includes my wife. They will print
out well in color. I can send you prints, if you need them. The
photo shows how I can sling my collapsible cane, and permits the
reader to see the name on the battery.
