| Brand new electric scooter batteries will need to be discharged
and recharged approximately 15-25 times before they have their
full capacity and provide the scooter with its full mileage range. If the
batteries are brand new ride the scooter until it
feels a little sluggish and then recharge the batteries. After approximately
15-25 discharge and recharge cycles the batteries will be conditioned
to their full capacity and the scooter will then have its full mileage
range.
Other factors that can lower the mileage range of electric
scooters are low outside temperatures, heavy wind, poor road
conditions, heavy loads, and unintentional use of the brakes while
riding. Riding up hills and grades also greatly reduced the ride
time that the scooter will have compared to riding on flat ground
only. |
