Electric scooters have substituted the necessity of engine scooters in a large way. In the present time electric scooters have become equally popular among the kids as well as among the adults. This is a good alternative of conventional scooters and is a very cost effective solution. And the most important reason behind such a massive popularity of these scooters is its eco-friendly functionality. Since electric motor scooters are run by battery and there is no need to fuel or gas consumption, it doesn’t produce any smoke or sound. This is how it maintains the equilibrium of the eco-system.
Another very positive fact about these scooters is the easy maintenance solution. Electric scooters require very low maintenance. You don't need to change the engine oil, don’t need to fill up the fuel tank, you don’t need to visit service center at a regular interval, it is very easy to maintain. You just need to charge the battery on a daily basis for a period of around 6 to 8 hours. And with this amount of charge, you can travel up to 30 to 35 miles. And the speed is also enough. Users can enjoy a highest speed of 30 miles per hour which is pretty decent.
Different models of electric scooters are now available in the market. And these models are mainly designed keeping in mind the age of the users. The power of the engine varies largely with the scooters. It starts with 100w engine and there are engines which are as powerful as 1600w or 2000w. Obviously, high power engines are for adults. Most adults will choose 4000w electric scooter. There are options for kids ageing 4 to 6 years and there are options for adults. This scooter is for all. And now anybody can buy electric scooters from online. There are numerous online electric scooter suppliers who offer these scooters through their online shop. You just need to choose your model and make the payment. Your scooter will be delivered at your house.
At lifestyle Mobility they aim to please and assist people who at other times would not be able to move freely or enjoy a life that was independent. This comes from the fact that they sell electric scooters that will help assist people to get about and to be able to do every day things, they may not otherwise be able to do. At least not without the help of another person.

Why many people are choosing e balance scooter
With the continuously rising cost of fuel, more people are taking a keen interest in commuting by scooter. While this practice is very effective at cutting back on expenses the idea of coming to work drenched in sweat is not appealing. For those people it may be a good idea to consider choosing an e balance scooter for the trek. Still, the e-balance scooter is not for everyone so before you make the choice to switch to this type of transportation here are some things you might want to think about.
Why Choose e balance scooter?
There is a certain type of person that would choose to use an e balance scooter. If you're the kind of person who would rather not drive around several thousand pounds of metal just to go to the neighborhood market then you might want to consider this type of scooter. Or if you're someone who is struggling to keep your gas tank above the E every time you walk out of your door it may be a good option. However, if you're someone who is already driving around town the old-fashioned way you'll probably be bored with an electric scooter. These scooters are meant for those people who would prefer to be behind the wheel of a car and know very little about scooters.
Battery Options.
Batteries are an important factor in your scooter choice. You not only need to consider the amount of energy they will produce but also the amount of weight they will add to your ride. Lead batteries tend to be very heavy but cost less whereas lithium ion batteries are about a third of the weight but can be quite expensive. Outside of the initial purchase of your electric scooter the battery will be the single most expensive part of choosing an electric scooter. You need to factor in the cost of the purchase and recharging over the life the battery and how much you plan to use it.
The Motor.
E balance scooter come with several different types of motors. Some of these can reach speeds up to 20 miles per hour. Wattages can range anywhere from a low 250 all the way up to an 4000 watt scooter. Don't assume that the higher wattage means more power; it is advisable that you test drive your scooter to see how well it will perform. Whatever you decide in choosing an electric scooter, your best bet is to get a "brushless, gearless" motor since these are more likely to require less maintenance.
While e-balance scooter have turned out to be the ideal solution for many in these tight economic times, they are not suited for everyone. Those who have extremely long commutes or those who have families and such will not see the benefits of such a purchase. But, if you're one of those who can see the true value of choosing an electric scooter you will soon see the benefits of cutting fuel costs and keeping the environment clean at the same time.

Document Legalization: Jurisdictional Issues
Three Key Questions to Ask Before Getting Started on a Legalization Project
Where is the document from?
Where will the document be used?
What type of document is it?
The answers to these questions can have a significant impact on how to proceed. Below are a few examples of how to approach a legalization project based on whether the originating and destination countries have signed onto the Hague Convention on Abolishing the Requirement of Legalization for Foreign Public Documents.
Example 1: You need to use documents from Japan (Hague party country) in the U.S. (Hague party country) and in the United Arab Emirates (UAE) (non-Hague party country). What you need: Japanese apostille for U.S. and Japanese authentication with UAE legalization for UAE.
Example 2: You need to use documents from China (non-Hague party country) in the U.S. (Hague party country) and in Brazil (non-Hague party country). What you need: Chinese authentication with legalization at U.S. and Brazilian embassy/consulate inChina.
The type of document, in certain circumstances, can be very important. Sometimes documents such as passports, educational or personal documents must be sent to one consular office, while commercial documents must be sent to another. Certain consular offices may refuse to legalize certain document types altogether, but their sister offices may accept them. Different types of documents may also require different procedures (such as Algeria only requiring translations for a Power of Attorney) or different fees (such as a fee of $30 for Good Standings, and a fee of $600 for most other corporate documents at the Embassy of the United Arab Emirates). And for many Arab countries, commercial invoices require an additional step of certification by the National U.S.-Arab Chamber of Commerce.
Procedures Can Vary Greatly Between Consular Offices for Same Country
Sometimes, the regions covered by different consular offices for a particular country overlap. In these situations, it is usually best to determine if there will be a benefit in working with one office over another. For example, when legalizing a document, some consular offices require only that a document be notarized due to the fact that the notary is registered within a specific territory. Conversely, sometimes it is necessary to have a document notarized, certified by a county clerk, authenticated by a Secretary of State, authenticated by the U.S. Department of State and even certified by a trade group before it can be legalized by the consulate. In some cases, going to one consular office versus another can make a big difference in terms of turnaround time, level of complexity and the cost associated with these projects.
Getting Accurate Information Can Be a Challenge
Most embassies/consulates post their jurisdictional policies and procedures online. The information on these websites, however, is often out of date and inaccurate. In some cases, the websites are not even in English. We have even seen one example of an embassy website containing a scam because it was set up to be editable by the general public, like a “wiki” site, but postings have clearly not been monitored.
There are also books published on the subject of document legalization/authentication, but due to frequent changes in policies and procedures, these are often outdated, even with annual publishing. (It is not unusual for embassies in Washington, D.C., for example, to change their rules on jurisdictional policy more than once a year.)
The bottom line is that if you are going to handle any legalization project, answer the three questions listed above and then start digging. Realize that the rules and procedures change all the time so you can’t assume something will be handled the same exact way as in the past. By doing your “homework” or working with a service company that is experienced in document legalization, you can help to minimize or eliminate delays and frustration.

China Credit Crunch Reveals Greater C2FO Opportunity
The New Yorker's recent article, "The Gift of Doubt, Albert O. Hirschman and the power of failure," by Malcolm Gladwell, inspires thoughts on the current business challenges in China. The article delves into the economic philosophy of the late economist Albert Hirschman, whose work examined whether ignorance impedes or is a precondition to progress. Hirschman's study of a thirty-two year odyssey in railroad construction led to his belief that creativity is borne of necessity rather than desire.
The article describes that during the mid-nineteenth century, a five-mile mass called the Hoosac Mountain blocked passage between the Deerfield Valley and a tributary of the Hudson, posing a significant challenge to railroad builders. Beset by miscalculations, political roadblocks and inefficient drilling methods, construction of the Hoosac Tunnel would eventually exceed its budget tenfold. Had they fully grasped the situation at the outset, the funders would never have undertaken this Herculean task. However, once engaged, the imperative of success spawned creative thinking and ingenuity that led to completion of the longest U.S. railroad at the time, contributing to the overall rapid industrial growth of the country.
According to Hirschman, "the only way in which we can bring our creative resources fully into play is by misjudging the nature of the task, by presenting it to ourselves as more routine, simple, undemanding of genuine creativity than it will turn out to be."
In the case of the China credit crunch, such ignorance has led to an economic system that is broken. The situation of unregulated shadow banking, combined with higher borrowing rates and the inability for many companies to obtain funding, has created a macroeconomic crisis condition where new thinking is required. It is the equivalent of being mid-way through the mountain before realizing the tools at-hand will not complete the task. It is an opportunity for the C2FO Market to provide a transformative solution.
The credit crisis in China has created an imperative for SMB and global Fortune 1000 companies to think more creatively about achieving cash flow efficiency, without resorting to shadow banking, factoring, and supply chain financing. Constant static and "less-than dynamic" discounting methods are not economic tools of the modern age.
Instead of borrowing the same money at increasingly higher rates, or being restricted to limited accounts receivable advance rates and excessive fees, C2FO provides an open market system that gives all businesses the opportunity to access their cash from their customers in a more efficient manner. This means lower cost, less friction and more flexibility. C2FO is the economic trans-continental railroad of our time and a tipping point for China's businesses to transform their financial system. C2FO is working capital made easy.

China credit rating
Just as consumers check to make sure a business is legitimate before they buy, you likely do the same before your business has dealings with someone new. Whether you're looking to buy from a supplier, donate to a non-profit organization, or collaborate with another business on a project, you want to make sure you aren't taking unnecessary risks.
If you're dealing with a federally incorporated business, your search should be straightforward as those businesses are listed in Corporations Canada online database. Generally, all businesses — even federally incorporated ones — have to register in the province or territory in which they do business. This includes corporations, partnerships, and sole proprietorships (except those operating under a person's name). You may wish to seek information from the provincial registrars, some of which are available online, particularly when dealing with smaller businesses.
There are several ways you can investigate a business:
Once you've verified to your own satisfaction that a business exists, it is wise to proceed with caution. If you decide to do business with someone you haven't dealt with before, you may want to start with a smaller, less risky transaction (if possible) to see how things go, until you feel comfortable that this is a business you can trust. This will also allow you to see how the business operates in terms of deadlines and customer service. If you are not satisfied, or something still doesn't seem right, you may decide not to proceed.

- Look it up. Do an Internet search using whatever information you have (name, address, phone number) and visit or call to see if it is what it claims to be.
- Put the word out on social media and look for online reviews. If the business has a presence there, someone will likely be talking about it or to its representatives.
- Ask for references from suppliers or clients (this option may not work for a very new business with few or no previous clients).
- Check with industry or trade organizations in your province or territory.
- Check with the Better Business Bureau; it provides reports on businesses and charities in both China and the United States.
- Search the china credit rating database; it's a voluntary registry, but many small Canadian businesses are listed.

Why Purchase Used Golf Scooters
Using a golf scooter is as trendy as riding a golf buggy; however, the former is a fancier version of the latter. If you are thinking of buying a golf scooter but are unsure as to whether it is will be the most comfortable vehicle for you or not; it makes sense not to invest high in new models. This is exactly when and why you will consider buying used models.
One of the biggest benefits of buying an old or used golf scooter is ‘pay less now and more, later’. In most cases, it is possible to invest in a two- year scooter at half the cost of a new model. Once you bring home the old one, you can test your comfort level and then invest in a new one. It is better to invest twice rather than handsomely investing once only to find that the scooter is uncomfortable.
Moreover, just as a new car, a new golf scooter depreciates the moment it leaves the collection. This again encourages one to consider buying the used one. Above all, these old scooters are priced with a thin profit margin, allowing you to resale the used model for close to what you paid for it.
When it comes to choosing between a gas or an electric powered golf cart, consider your needs. Will you be using the cart on the greens, or are you looking for a utility vehicle for you property? Decide where and how you want to drive the cart before choosing which type is best suited to your particular needs.

Practical guide on how to verify chinese company?
Thanks to ecommerce, companies in US are able to sell products/service to China, a country you have not yet visited, you don’t speak the language, you are not aware if the legal systems are similar, you don’t know and don’t have the resource to know if the counterpart Chinese companies are real.
So we face a question: How can I check Chinese company? How to check the legitimacy of your Chinese buyers/partners? Are they a real company.
Some facts:
China don’t have a organization like BBB(Better Business Bureau) in US, where you could check the legitimacy and background of a Chinese company.
Chinese administration of industry and commerce is the governing body that in charge of company registration. However, they don’t have a nationwide website or database system that open to public to inquiry the authentication of Chinese companies.
Sourcing China blog recently published an excellent article, sharing how to verify Chinese company without visiting their premise. Here are some tips on their blog,just for chinese authentication:
1) Do they have company bank account
Only legally incorporated companies can have business bank account. If the Chinese company insist you to pay their personal account only, be cautious.
2) Visit local AIC websites
Even though the national AIC don’t have a nationwide system allow you to check the legitimacy of Chinese company. However, some(not a lot) local AIC do allow you to use their websites to check the legitimacy of Chinese company.
3) Websites and Email
If they don’t have websites, use public email account like 163, sohu, sina, it is negative.
4) Hongkong offshore company
Be cautions doing business with Hongkong company, but operates only in mainland China. They are shell company. Read this article to learn the risk.
