Rio-3-Lite battery mobility scooter non-spillable replacement x2.
Replacement battery pack for Mercury Rio-3-Lite mini mobility scooter, matched pair of sealed non-spill safe batteries for this popular portable scooter.
The Mercury Rio-3-Lite is a very light scooter with a carrying capacity of 115kg or 18-Stone. The scooter weighs just over 20Kg with the battery pack, seat and basket removed. It requires splitting to fit in the back of most cars, which can be very convenient for a quick shopping trip. Depending on weight and road surface, the scooter can travel up to ten miles on a complete battery charge. The scooter folds up easily for transportation.
This offer is for a matched pair of 12v batteries. They will not leak so that they can be laid on the side. Most definitely a prerequisite of a transportable scooter. The batteries are also not-hazardous and safe to use indoors and outdoors as well as on public transport, even aeroplanes, although you should check with the airline before booking.
