The battery of your electric scooter’s is “fuel tank.” It stores the energy that is consumed by the DC motor, lights, controller, and other accessories.
Electric scooters have lithium ion-based battery pack or lead-acid batteries. . Lithium ion-based battery have excellent energy density and longevity. Most electric scooters use of lithium ion-based battery pack . In a scooter, the battery pack are made of many individual battery cells (18650 cells), a size classification for lithium ion (Li-Ion) batteries with 18 mm x 65 mm cylindrical dimensions. Many electric scooters for kids and other inexpensive models contain lead-acid batteries. Lead-acid is a very old battery chemistry that is commonly found in cars and some larger electric vehicles, like golf carts.

What kind of battery does an electric scooter use?
The majority of electric scooters today will have a Lithium-ion battery. This kind of electric batteries have several important advantages over other types of electric batteries:
- they have higher densities, which give the scooters longer ranges
- they have a slower self-discharge rate.
- higher voltage than other electric batteries.
- they don’t require a lot of maintenance.
- they don’t suffer from the memory effect.
However, lithium-ion batteries also have several disadvantages you need to be aware of:
- they shouldn’t be fully discharged.
- they age and become very weak after 500-1000 charges, even with little usage.
- taking a lithium-ion battery on an airplane is a drag.
- they can catch fire and explode.

Electric scooter batteries – what you need to know
Most of the electric vehicles use electric batteries Lithium-Ion batteries. They have voltages starting from 24 V, all the way up to 120 V. On average, the batteries have capacities between 150 Wh and 750 Wh, but expensive scooters have much more than that. The average battery will take around 5 hours to fully charge. Batteries will last between 2 and 3 years on average.
How Far Can An Electric Scooter Go On One Charge
