Advanced EV states: “Curtis controller 1266A-5201/275A (USA Brand)” REVIEW (30 Sep 2026): this rests on the manual's (AEV-2) table, which no Advanced EV document we hold ties to the cart 'EV1 2' (the name appears only in the manual's filename); that identity is unestablished (section 16), so the reading is kept and not treated as settled.
