Why Won't My Scooter Battery Stay Charged?

Our Scooters keep dying out because we believe scooters are like cars, but they are not. Cars recharge themselves while running, and recharge a lowly charged battery. That is not true when it comes to scooters. Scooters, when running, only recharge what little energy it took to start it. So a half-charged moped or scooter battery will remain half-charged until it dies or we hook up an external charger to it.

How do we keep our scooters charged? Don’t use an automotive charger, as it will kill any scooter battery. We must use a trickle charger on these types of batteries. Find a 2-watt trickle charger (ScooterStock.com) for only $19.95 with free shipping. Just hook it up to your battery every two weeks or once a month. That will keep your battery fully charged.

Another option is to have a charging system installed into the scooter ($59.95 from ScooterStock.com with free shipping). This system creates a plug on the body of the scooter, and a charger, so we can simply plug the charger into the wall, and into the outlet on the scooter, and it charges the battery.

Happy Battery Charging,
Scooter Stock
