There are many types of recreational powered products, which include scooters, dirt bikes, ATVs, and go karts. The scooter charger is of typical style and output current for use on most recreational or children's electrically powered products that match the voltage (24 volts) and input connector (3-prong, see detailed inset image). This 24 volt scooter charger has an output of 1.6 amps, which is the recommended output charge rate for batteries up to size 18 amp hour.įor added safety, this scooter charger has an LED green and red light indicating battery charge status, as well as automatic shut-off when charging is complete. The pins or holes are marked.Our 3-prong scooter charger is a direct replacement for most electric scooter battery charger models. The chair receptacle (female) will be the mirror image of this. Correct polarity for the charger plug (male) is shown above. May not be compatible with some EV Rider, Zip’r, E&J, or Worldwide Seating chairs using the XLR connector, as Everest-Jennings and these others reverses the wiring on pin 1 and 2 in the connector.

This includes Pride (except “Victory”), Hoverround, Invacare (except Lynx 元), Permobil, Drive, Ranger, Sunrise, Quickie (models with off-board charger), all Golden (except “Companion”), Bruno, PaceSaver (off-board charger models only- Atlas Plus 3, Eclipse, Esprit), Shoprider (except Sunrunner Deluxe and Lithium-ion battery models), Heartway, Merits (all with off-board chargers), AND most other mobility scooters and power chairs with off-board chargers & XLR connector. These have the 3 pin XLR connector found on about 90% of the wheelchairs and scooters in use, and wired the most common way. The polarity at the connector may be reversed. If the run time is getting less and less, the batteries are coming to the end of their life.Ĥ. The deeper the discharge, the fewer the cycles. Average battery life in a mobility application about 12-18 months, and less if the batteries are deeply discharged/recharged on a daily basis. Disconnect each cable connection and clean/scuff all battery posts and cable ends. This can prevent the charger from recognizing a viable battery pack, similar to #1 above. This will prevent proper current flowing out, and back in (charging). Even though the terminal connections may look clean and tight, there may be insufficient contact at one or more cable connections, for good electrical contact. This is a very common problem in mobility applications, and a lot of chargers are purchased unnecessarily when the batteries are the problem.Ģ. There are ways to deal with a battery pack below 16 volts, but it’s possible the batteries are not recoverable.
The charger has to be connected to a battery pack to check these functions. Because of this safety feature, you can’t measure charger voltage or current at the 3 pin plug, without the charger being hooked to the chair. Usually, if the chair/scooter won’t move, this is the case. If the batteries are severely discharged, to a point below 16 volts, the charger won’t recognize a viable battery pack, and won’t begin charging.

A 24 volt battery system with healthy batteries measures 25.4 to 25.5 volts at full charge, and 23.8 to 24.0 when effectively discharged. This is a 24 volt charger, for a 24 volt system. If the mobility charger doesn’t work on your scooter/chair out of the box, there are several possibilities:ġ.
