Taking Care of Your Scooter Batteries

Keeping your mobility scooter charged and ready to hit the road is essential to ensuring that you can stay as independent as possible, and taking care of your scooter’s batteries is one of the most important ways you can make sure you’re always ready to roll.

Here are our simple steps to looking after your batteries to help you give them the longest possible life and save you money in the long run.

Charge your battery at least once a week, overnight, even if you’ve only been using your scooter for short trips.

The good news is, you can’t overcharge your battery – your charger comes with an in-built cut off, so once your battery is fully charged, the charger should turn off.

Make sure you are using the right charger to suit your battery. The team at Wow! Mobility and Rehab can help you with this, particularly if you’ve purchased a scooter without its own battery charger.

They’ll help you find exactly what you need to keep you charged up and on the road.

Keep your scooter batteries in a dry place and don’ t let them overheat.

It’s always best to keep your scooter undercover and out of the elements when you’re not using it.

Remember that cold weather can affect your battery, which could mean your scooter can’t go as for, or for as long.

Book in with the Wow! Mobility and Rehab team to get your scooter regularly serviced to keep it in the best possible condition.
