Maintain Your Scooter Battery Charger

Although buying a new scooter battery charger is very cheap, know how to maintain the Scooter battery charger is very important, it can also prolong the life of you scooter battery.

Steps

  1. Plug the battery charger into the scooter or bike, before plugging it into a wall outlet. When the charging is complete, unplug charger from wall outlet before unplugging from scooter or bike.
  2. Recharge the batteries immediately after every ride to get the most life out of your scooter's batteries. Leaving a scooter battery in a partially discharged state for any amount of time lowers the useful life of the battery.
  3. Recharge the batteries at least every 3 months while the scooter is in storage. The Amperage of the battery charger may be decreased for longer battery life, or increased for a quicker recharge time.
  4. Use a slow rate battery charger whenever possible. This preserves the life of the batteries. If a scooter is driven for more than one battery cycle per day, then use a smaller battery charger overnight and a larger battery charger during the day is the best solution.
  5. Avoid using battery chargers with a higher Amp rating than the electric scooters original battery charger. These quick rate battery chargers are typically rated in the 3 Amp through 6 Amp power output range and recharge most electric scooter battery packs in 2-3 hours, however they will slightly lower the longevity of the battery pack when compared to using a slow rate battery charger.
