I am looking to upgrade my scooter batteries from 12v 12ah to 12v 20 ah. My user manual says this will work. Do I need to get a different charger? The one I have is 24v 2ah output.

yes the charger that came with scooter works fine (great battery holds charge lot longer then battery that came with scooter)

You shouldn't need a different charger. Just be sure you wire the batteries exactly the way the old ones were. The ah rating just means the batteries you are purchasing will last longer under load before they discharge.

The charger should work fine, it will just take longer to charge than you are used to.

Dear "I have a two wire cord ...":I'm not sure what you're trying to say/ask? You MUST provide more detail. For example; Are you referring to your scooter input device (i.e.: on the scooter AND is this input designed/designated for 24 volts DC) that will accept the battery charger's output plug's matching configuration (i.e.: which must also be 24 volts DC)? In other words ... BOTH sides MUST be matching 24 volts input AND output ... the same!Mickey from Florida

First, thanks to Kevin for telling us that the adapter is a 12volt adapter (from the label). I just want to add that my battery pack - as I suspected - outputs 9 volts; the six AA batteries are indeed in series. Therefore, I suspect anything from 9-12 volts should work. Also worth noting is that when my batteries died the other day, I just rotated them and am getting some more use out of them; I expect to have a power source fabricated by the time I need to replace the batteries.

Sounds like you want to use a NiMH charger (7.2v) for the LiPO battery (7.4v). No, that won't work... it will likely burn up the battery. You have to use a LiPO charger.

This device is only appropriate for 36V batteries, i.e. 3 12V batteries wired in series, used for things like E-bike and motorized wheelchairs that need the torque. Cars, such as the S2000 typically use 12V batteries. I use Battery Tender brand on my motorbikes and cars. Cheaper, work just as well. Higher Amperage means faster charging.

As long as its a 2s 7.4v, the stock charger should work fine. My second DH came w/ a defective battery (1 good cell, 1 bad cell). Cheap Chinese batteries... Any more questions, let me know.

You can only charge a 20V battery on a charger rated for 20V.An 18V charger will not do the job.However,most chargers,including the Porter Cable multi-chemistry charger will charge all of their batteries rated below the maximum,ie 9.6V or 12V and 18V

sorry so long answering. I forgot to look for my info. My paper that came with my charger says for skil 7.2v to 18v ni-cd batteries . Models : 96 BAT, 120 BAT, 144 BAT, 180 BAT . Hope this helps you.

A little heavy but the extra power more than makes up for that. 12 volt 20 amp batteries are definitely not the same size as 12 volt 12 amp batteries but if your scooter manual says they will work there is enough room in the case for them. Check your manual to make sure these will work.

Read the manual for your shoprider and if the amps is more than 2.0 amps for the charger it will not work. I sent mine back because my scooter needed 4.0 amps to charge my batters.

I'm thinking of checking my local hobby shop for a LiPo battery and charger upgrade. I have been looking at various 7.4V LiPo batteries and chargers on amazon but I want to compare prices with my local store before I purchase. I haven't gotten the car yet but word is the charger and battery could use an upgrade and that the car is LiPo battery ready so I'm thinking it might be the solution, although they are about half as expensive as the car itself.

I'm assuming that by AC charger, you are referring to the transformer. If so, you need a transformer that the output is 12V and 1.0Amp. The trick is the adapter that plugs in to the base charger. My advise it to purchase a Maha PowerEx MH-C401FS4AA27 - Battery charger - battery - rechargeable - AA x 4 - 2700 mAh. You will also get the DC and AC adapters. The difference in the price is just a few dollars.

The charger is 48V, it sounds like your golf cart is 48V as well. Might want to double check. You cannot just go across the first battery (12V), but must go across all 4 for the 48V. If you have 6V batteries you will have to go across all 8. Be aware of polarities and note the wattage of this charger to see if it will meet your needs.

Yes. If you buy a scooter, Batteries installed and the charger is an external, stand-alone unit that plugs into a wall outlet and into a spot on the scooter. If just buying batteries, you do NOT get a charger and you must install the new ones yourself.

It is a very good charger, i us it on only one 12v battery currently, but i see no reason why it would not maintain the charge on your batteries as long as they are hooked as a 12v system, i am sure it would be more effective it you did one at a time and cycled them through

The batteries for the E100 E125 and E150 are the same. They are 12v 5AH and come in a 2 pack. It requires some rewiring since the attaching clips are not the same. It took me about 20 minutes to rewire with snap on clips available at Home Depot for about a buck. I did it with no knowledge of wiring electronics. Scooter runs like new and works well with the Razor charger although the batteries came fully charged which was a surprise.

yes, the 12v20ah are the same size than 12v 12ah, I put in my scooter and works great
