Mobility Scooter Batteries

By Jason Gluckman

Mobility scooters are powered by heavy-duty batteries. Various companies have come up with different kinds of batteries. The prices differ with the varying capacities. Distinct batteries power different models of mobility scooters.

A three-wheel scooter with a 143 lbs capacity is fitted with 2 batteries, 12V, 32 amp that power the vehicle with a maximum speed 4.25mph and cover 25 miles. The same pair of 12V, 32amp power a three-wheeled scooter of 205lbs, with a maximum speed of 5.75 mph and cover 25 miles. The pair can be used for all other models of three wheeled scooters, with different lbs.

A 166lbs full weight four- wheel scooter empowered with a pair of 12V, 32amp battery, runs to a speed of 5.0 mph and cover 25miles. A 355 lbs four- wheel scooter is fitted with a 12V, 100amp battery that enables the scooter to achieve a max speed of 10mph and can cover 25miles, when charged once. A 270lbs, full weight four- wheeled scooter with a capacity of 400lbs, is set with a pair of 12V 40amp battery.

The extra heavy duty scooters with a weight of 280 lbs and maximum capacity of 500lbs are empowered with a pair of 12V, 48 amp batteries, that power the vehicle to a speed of 7.0 mph and covers 25 miles. Whereas scooters with 270 lbs and 309 lbs full weight and a maximum capacity of 500 lbs, run on a pair of 12V 32 amp batteries, that powers both the scooters to attain a speed of 5.7 mph and cover 25 miles and more.

It is advisable to drivers to not pay much for a pair of batteries. They cost an average of $40 a piece. It is essential to make sure that the scooter is charged twice a week, especially in winter.

Excessive speed is a factor in many accidents. Obey the speed limits and never travel faster than your skill level or than the conditions allow.

Next up the line, you should get a performance carb and/or a new exhaust pipe. You'll need to replace these two components (and probably the air box) at the same time to get the best performance increase. The engine is basically just an air pump. The more air you can move through the engine, the more power you get. Adding a bigger carb draws more air (and more fuel) into the engine. But you restrict the amount of added air if you don't change the air box. You also restrict the amount of air out of the engine if you don't replace the exhaust pipe with a bigger (or more free flowing) exhaust pipe. In addition, just changine the carb changes the fuel / air ratio inside the engine. Your engine may or may not like the change. For instance, the new carb could give you more top end power, but also lead to starting problems. Or it may run better at low RPM's and poor at high RPM's. Tuning for best performance can be a lot of work! Try to buy a kit (carb, air box, exhaust pipe) that is tuned for your scooter. It will make things much easier. Lastly, add the big bore kit. This will give you more torque (pulling power) and better acceleation, but it won't necessarily add top speed unless you make gearing changes. For larger scooters, there aren't too many performance parts available here in the U.S. (except for some of the newer scooters). The easiest thing is to do a web search for "scooter performance parts" and see what you find. Otherwise, you can try:
Replacing your worn drive belt. This will give you a few more MPH because a new belt rides higher in the pulleys. Changing your roller weights (you can use just a slightly heavier rollers for more top speed). Adjusting your valves. Installing a new air filter, change the oil, put in a new spark plug. Keeping your tires at proper inflation levels. This also helps you get better mileage and prevent premature tire wear.

Note that the 80-125-150-250 Honda's have a small window in the speedometer. The window changes color from green to red every 1000 miles. It's to remind you to change the oil. Afte you change it, just place the key into the slot on the lower left sideinstrument panel and push. This will reset the indicator back to green.
