The clearance is about 5-6". I sure hope I don't try to run up a curb! LOL
Yes, it is usable in the rain but not deep water..

I don't really know yet. I assume I can get a few hours out of it. I have two 50Ah batteries for the drive and lights. The lights take about 3-5 amps average @ 26.5v. The chair with factory drives says about 8 miles. I only have to go about 1-2 miles tops and most of that is going to be very slow. It will do about 8mph and I am running about 2-3mph in the parades.. Time will tell

Whats in it? What batteries, what kind of music setup?

Thanks.. I have some build pictures but not much in the way of video. I have been posting the build for the last few months on FB under "Pixel & Props" page.

LOL... I actually like the song.. I have heard it many times as you can imagine. I haven't decided whether of not I will program more than one song for the parade since it is constantly moving thru different sections of people.
