Not looking forward to spending more money.

Several years ago, I bought a smart drive power assist. I'd used it for several months, needed the rollers replaced. That took a while, because I had to gather the money to repair it. Of course, like an idiot, I stopped using it for a while (didn't really need it), and forgot to keep up on the charge, now the thing refuses to charge. I think the battery is beyond dead. I am not sure if it's the unit or what, but ... I'll be shelling out more money for repair and will probably be without it for a couple of weeks. And we have a trip coming up, yay....
Next time I'll remember to charge it on the regular even if I don't use it.

It's like a third wheel for the wheelchair go up hills and coast. Kine of like cruise control for a car.

Yeah, kind of. It does happen. Could walk away with free. Depending if the battery is replaceable, or if it's the charger.

one of the things that annoys me the most is "wasting" money

That is the one thing that always annoys me - chargeable item because I usually forget
