Travel Scooter Series 19
III. BATTERIES AND CHARGING
What type and size of battery should I use?
Your Travel Scooter requires two deep-cycle batteries. We recommend only sealed, maintenance-free types such
as AGM or Gel-Cell. Do not use wet-cell batteries, which have removable caps. Refer to the speci cations table
for size as batteries differ depending on manufacturer.
WARNING! Corrosive chemicals are contained in batteries. Use only AGM or Gel-Cell
batteries to reduce the risk of leakage or explosive conditions.
NOTE: Sealed batteries are not serviceable. Do not remove the caps.
Why do my new batteries seem weak?
Deep-cycle batteries employ a different chemical technology than that used in car batteries, nickel-cadmium
batteries (nicads), and other common battery types. Deep-cycle batteries are speci cally designed to provide
power, drain down their charge, and then accept a relatively quick recharge (8 to 14 hours).
We work closely with our battery manufacturer to provide batteries that best suit your Travel Scooters speci c
electrical demands. Fresh batteries are shipped fully charged to our customers. During shipping, the batteries may
encounter temperature extremes that can in uence their initial performance. Heat diminishes the charge on the
battery; cold slows the available power and extends the time needed to recharge the battery.
It may take a few days for the temperature of your Travel Scooters batteries to stabilize and adjust to their new
room or ambient temperature. More importantly, it takes a few charging cycles (partial draining followed by full
recharging) to establish the critical chemical balance that is essential to a deep-cycle battery’s peak performance
and long life.
Follow these steps to properly break in your Travel Scooter’s new batteries for maximum ef ciency and
service life.
1. Fully recharge any new battery prior to its initial use. This charging cycle brings the battery up to about 88%
of its peak performance level.
2. Operate your new Travel Scooter in familiar and safe areas. Drive slowly at rst, and do not travel too far from
your home or familiar surroundings until you have become accustomed to your Travel Scooters controls and
have properly broken in your Travel Scooters batteries.
3. Fully recharge the batteries. They should be at over 90% of their peak performance level.
4. Operate your Travel Scooter again, then fully recharge the batteries.
5. After four or ve charging cycles, the batteries are able to receive a charge of 100% of their peak performance
level and are able to last for an extended period of time.
What about public transportation?
AGM and Gel-Cell batteries are designed for application in scooters and other mobility vehicles. These batteries
are Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) approved (United States only), allowing safe transportation on aircraft,
buses, and trains, as there is no danger of spillage or leakage. We suggest you contact the carriers ticket counter
in advance to determine that carriers speci c requirements.
