I've yet to come across any old person who wouldn't like their stairlift to get there quicker. For goodness sake, they're either trying to answer the door, or get to the loo before they wet themselves, and the thing runs at less than half a mile an

Most have a DC motor and 12 volt SLA battery under the seat. Prolly not legal or safe but you could put an 18 or 24 volt battery pack in, upgrade the charger and hang on.

Legal? Who's going to inspect it? No MOTs on a stairlift. **** THE LAW!
