Dennis,

Last time I visited the Segway OC - Annaheim store, they had stock.

Just call and we can get you on track with the right model for what you need!

1.877.SEGWAY.4

All we need to know is the number of Segways you will be hauling (can be updated later if you want to haul more than one at a future date) Plus what models you are Seg Vating!

The Make, Year and Model of your vehicle

If you have your hitch, and what size it is - the Class III hitch is required, that is the open box model, not one with a tounge and ball on it.

The amount of space from the ground to the bottom of the inside of the hitch.

And you will need an RV plug installed - go to the www.Segvator.com website and pull down the wiring info to give to your hitch installer, so you have the POWER for your Segvator!

Could you also mount a heated humidifier in line with the ventilator circuit (similar to a Fisher-Paykel unit) onboard the Seg with a cargo carrier?

The key would be the weight of what you are carrying.

You want to equalize the weight on both sides of the Seg, otherwise you will always be steering to the one side, due to the extra weight on the one wheel. We see this a lot when the air pressure in the tires is not equal.

EMS Techs, love the Segway, because they can load up all of their gear on a Seg, and glide right to the patient.

The Segway can be set up as a real workhorse for carrying stuff. As you will see on the variety of "MODS" that are shown on this site, only your imagination is what will hold you back.

Indeed, the segway is capable of carrying much more than 260 lb.!

I would think you would mount the ventilator to a bracket over the wheel covers. The i180 had a bracket for the saddle bag that could be adopted.
Closer to the CG would allow the natural control characteristics to remain least affected.
