Took like 6 months to finally find a used one. Scored a 2016 for $500. New they are $1400.
My kid just turned 4 and can ride the pw50 without training wheels, but can't touch the ground, so can only ride it in a field without training wheels, or a track with training wheels.
This thing is so small he can handle it no problem, pick it up, etc.
Wish I would have not been so jewesish and just bought a new one 6 months back.
Anyone know how long the batteries last? On a full charge, and also before needing to be replaced?

Here's one pack that will replace both SLA batteries and provide similar capacity with way way less weight. You can put two in parallel to double the range.

Have any of you guys seen people replace the grips?

I received my Multistar 20000 mAh 6S 10C battery pack and the IMAX B6AC balance charger yesterday, as well as the BMS 4A charge / 10A discharge, (which I ordered just in case, because I didn't yet get an answer for my last question about the actual importance of BMS part).
I installed the battery but not yet the BMS, and I wanted to just be sure that this is NOT necessary or IS necessary I understood from Hobbyking that it will prevent my son from driving the oset too long or hard, thereby potentially discharging the battery pack too far and causing it damage.... Is this not an actual event that can occur?
And if it is a possible situation that can arise, does anyone have an idea how the BMS actually should be installed, as they don't have any installation instructions that came with it from Hobbyking. Additionally the motor is 600W/24V, thereby 25A max draw- is the BMS configurable to allow for more than 10A max current as set up?
