#### C.2 COMPARISON SUMMARY

( We place the related information for the predicate device in the following pages, including the visual appearance, 510k information on the FFDA website, and the comparison and summary table. )

According to the above table that the intended use between two devices is the same, The batteries used are the same brand and same type that is certified by UL. The control systems for the two devices are same brand i.e., Penny & Giles for the two devices. The recharge for the two devices are used the same resource, HP8204A, and the recharger is certified by UL. Besides, the foldable frame, removable arm type, same tires, same seat size, same warranty on component and frame, and back upholstery are the same material that also be passed the resistance ignition test by SGS.

The overall dimensions, weight limit, and weight capabilities differences between two devices are small, and the dimensions for the new device are larger than those of the predicate device. The device of the smaller dimensions can be fitted into most of the ordinary car trunk.

The cruising range of the new device is 37 km and 40 km for the predicate device. This is mainly due to the fact that the batteries for the two devices are smaller. Certainly the real range depends on the practice environments, i.e., weight, surface, incline, and temperature. For the real life use, the two devices are substantially equivalent.

The safety climbing abilities for the two devices are different, the new device is 12° and 15° for the predicate device. We place the relevant specification of maximum climbing ability 12° in the owner's manual. The user's climb is not allowed to exceed 12° for the new device. In this sense the two devices are substantially equivalent.

The maximum speed is 5.6 mph for the new devices and 5 mph for the predicate device. The throttle tiller can continuously adjust the speeds. The operators can set the adequate speed according to their feeling and need, i.e., outdoor or indoor. This means thee two devices have the same safety and hazard.

Based on the above the information and the analysis, we know that the subject device and the predicate device have the same intended use, the same technological aspects and only minor differences exist. We believe that FDA can decide the subject device and the predicate device are substantially equivalent.

Summary for substantial equivalence comparison:

The intended use between the two devices is the same. The batteries used are the same brand and same type that is certified by UL. The control systems for the two devices are same brand i.e., Penny & Giles for the two devices. The recharge for the two devices are used the same resource, HP8204A, and the recharger is certified by UL. Besides, the foldable frame, removable arm type, same tires, same seat size, same warranty on component and frame, and back upholstery are the same material that also be passed the resistance ignition test by SGS.

Thus the same safety level for the two devices is assured. The major differences existing of the two Power Scooters are the different overall dimension, weight limit, weight capabilities, climbing angle, cruising range, and maximum speed between the two devices. Based on the above the information and the analysis, we know that the subject device and the predicate device have the same intended use, the same technological aspects and only minor differences exist. So the new device is substantially equivalent to the predicate devices in this aspect.
