THE GEM E2 HAS 2 ELECTRICAL SYSTEMS. 48 VOLTS FOR THE DRIVE SYSTEM, AND 12 VOLTS FOR HEADLIGHTS ETC. WHEN DRIVING ON A CITY STREET DOWN A HILL OF APPROXIMATELY 1 DEGREE OR MORE AND YOU APPLY THE BRAKES, ALL HEADLIGHTS, TAILLIGHTS, AND THE SPEEDOMETER AND DOME LIGHTS WILL ALL SHUT DOWN. AFTER RELEASING THE BRAKES, THE 12 VOLTS SYSTEM WILL RESET ITSELF. THIS HAS NOT HAPPENED WHILE DRIVING ON A FLAT SURFACE OR UPHILL. THE GEM E2 HAS REGENERATIVE BRAKING. IF I USE THE EMERGENCY/PARKING BRAKE TO STOP THE VEHICLE, WHILE DRIVING DOWNHILL, THIS DOES NOT HAPPEN.
