Prestige are working on a mk2 powerporter or you could look at getting a Global Angling Products kit for your barrow.If they do a puncture proof tyre I will be getting one,their customer service is very good

Global angling products have great customer service and I can vouch for there kit also. Been faultless since I got mine, very easy to get set up also.

What's the difference between the standard power wheel they do and the energise one they do and are they easy to fit

Indeed or you could join a Facebook profile and get your stuff from Ali express and customise your barrow that is if you are happy with it.

The Nash Ian a 250 watt wheel hub be interesting what Global use, I have the 350 watt 24v wheel hub. I'm still putting mine together mind so it's a labour of love. The global products gets great reviews.
Despite mine taking sometime
My specs will be
350W 24v 30 Amp/hour
Functions
On/off (could be keyed)
Battery Indicator.
Throttle
Cruise control - paramount dealing with unsteady ground (makes life easier).
Reverse, having hit roots of trees and having to reverse and take a run up. Maybe null and void anyway.
Regenerative breaking the damping effect of the motor being used as a generator
Lights just in case.
And because I fancied prating about.

Lots of Fox, Nash and TFG barrows being converted. I'm upgrading my Avid Transit.

I have a 24v Prestige PP MK6 bought in 2017. It's had one set of replacement batteries in that time.
I saw the Nash one at the NAS a couple of years ago and personally I wasn't impressed. The frame felt cheap and not very sturdy to me. If mine vanished tomorrow, I'd be back on to Prestige in a flash TBH - just my opinion, I appreciate others may think differently.

I took a good look at the Nash power barrow and it looked reasonable, for me I like the project of putting one together. I'm sure the prestige power does the job well plenty of people have one.

My wheel frame for my avid transit is with global now, they have to weld there bracket on it and fit the wheel. Hopefully get it back next week to test out.

Pretty sure the global one is a 350watt motor. Lipo battery that's good for 15km (long range) took me 10 minutes to put together. I can't fault it, on top speed it was pulling me up hill through mud and **** last weekend and that was with a 25kg sack of salt on top of all my kit.
