Just picked up a mk7 off a lad on syndicate, fine apart from the stupid rubber dome shaped cover on the ‘ go ‘ button will not stay in place. Any ideas of a fix , tempted to glue the dam thing in place😂😂😂

I'm going to buy an ip66 junction box and waterproof cable glands and fit the battery and controller in it with the battery in the bag pictured, will fit a waterproof socket so I can charge it with the dedicated charger and my power pack if possible.

The battery compartment on my Gash is excellent - compact and with a sealed watertight lid (not just flung in a pannier / barrow bag / placcy bucket) however the 'only' issue is its not accessible when fully loaded so if you're lucky enough to be able to leave your gear on the barrow in the back of your van you still have to unload to remove / recharge the batteries . . .

But... I do like how the Nash barrows site the battery centrally in that water tight compartment
I can put my lightweight battery almost anywhere so cant see the Nash has any advantage ( mine is in a Lipo waterproof explosion proof bag )

Global look very good, great website and service from what I can gather.

A friend of mine had a Prestige power porter the 1st 24v model then covid came and he lost his job with the lockdown and sold it
then when he got back on his feet he bought a MK2 porter but the lake he had been fishing was a long walk from the car so when funds allowed he bought the Global conversion for his mk2 and he said it was better than his previous power porter pulls like a train
its what help persuade me to buy the Global conversion for my Fox Explorer

Prestige have been crap for years now and that includes the Power Porter rubbish.
Outdated and poorly designed, fairenough going for one when there was nothing else about but the Nash barrow is lightyears ahead of the PP.
Look at the new conversion competition out there, they all use the same technology Nash use all be it with slightly more powerful motors, that said the Nash unit would suit 99% of UK carpers.
If Korda are on the ball I'd expect to see two models matching the Nash offering but slightly more powerful and a couple of battery options.
Wouldn't lose any sleep if Prestige went out of business, outdated Tec, poor quality construction and sod all customer service, you reap what you sow.

Even if its out of warranty I'm sure if it's not fit for purpose , the customer still has rights, oh how things have changed I've got a 12 year old mk2, hammered to death, still fine

Guess it depends on the warranty as this barrow was purchased nearly 2 years ago now
EDIT: I’m sure they only offer 12 month warranty as I had an issue with my charger killing my batteries and only just got a replacement as I said I’d only had the barrow about a year
