How to charge and maintain scooter batteries?
When you receive your new batteries they will be more or less fully charged however you still need to complete this charge before first use and most importantly after every single use, never leave in a discharged state. If you aren’t going to use the scooter for long periods then to help slow down the natural self-discharge rate charge every 4-weeks.
Installation.
The batteries are stored underneath your seat and accessing them is fairly simple, you need to turn the seat a quarter turn using the leaver below the seat. The seat will then be able to be moved forward/backwards and the cowling can be removed showing a pair of batteries. Carefully remove these batteries and replace with new and thats it. If you are unable to do this please seek advice from a professional who will be able to assist.
Looking to upgrade to a higher ampere for additional range?
Although the 50-ampere batteries on offer here are top quality there are upgrades available which will allow you to travel further in between charges. However more importantly there will be more capacity left at the end of a day’s run which will length the batteries overall life as it will not be so deeply discharged, these are called GEL. Also if you often run the battery below 50% of its capacity then a lithium set up may be beneficial to you as it can be run down to 100% without adverse effects and good for 5000-charges, ten times more than the standard lead acid.
