Lithium-Ion Battery (case size 7)

tortoise · 10-22-2015, 02:31 PM

Just some "for what it's worth" info for others curious.

Case size 7 Lithium-Ion battery from valleyscooterparts.com was $49.99 shipped . . scrappydogscooters.com has a similar battery, but shipping costs make it a little more expensive.

LI battery weighed around 3 pounds less, but was almost exactly the same size as the lead-acid battery it replaced. Tested around 12 volts when received, and around 13.3 volts after a 2 hour charge.

Not a bad price. Where does Valley Scooter Parts ship from?

I didn't see any specs listed for that battery at the Valley Scooter Parts website.

I image the cold cranking amps are too low for the RX3, or any bike much larger than a scooter.

Don't bother with Lithium Ion. We have sold several brands of them and they have many more problems than they are worth.

Is "We" whygostock.com (Billings, MT)?

What issues have you experienced with Lithium Ion's?
