Additional Battery for an Electric Scooter – How to Effectively Extend the Range?

Introduction

What is an additional battery for an electric scooter?

An additional battery is a solution that increases the range of an electric scooter by working in parallel with the factory-installed battery. It is mounted externally, usually on the steering column shaft or near the deck.

Why do users choose an additional battery?

Many electric scooter owners look for ways to extend their riding distance on a single charge. With an additional battery, the range can be increased up to four times, allowing for long-distance travel without the need for frequent charging stops.

Why is it worth extending the range of an electric scooter?

Limitations of factory-installed batteries

Most scooters come with low-capacity batteries, which means frequent charging and the risk of running out of power at inconvenient moments.

Benefits of a longer range

  • No need for daily charging
  • Ability to travel longer distances without interruptions
  • Increased convenience and flexibility in daily use
  • Time savings by avoiding frequent charging stops

What range can be achieved with an additional battery?

By installing an additional battery, the range can be extended up to 100 km on a single charge. This is an ideal solution for people who travel long distances.

When should you install an additional battery?

It is recommended to install an additional battery when the factory battery is in good condition (not older than 18 months). If the original battery is worn out, consider replacing it before adding an additional one: CityLion – Deck Batteries.

What parameters should be considered when choosing?

Capacity (Ah) – determines the amount of energy the battery can provide. Higher capacity means a longer range but also increased weight.

Voltage (V) – must match the scooter’s electrical system to avoid component damage.

Series or parallel connection?

An additional battery is usually connected in parallel, which increases capacity without changing the voltage.

Can every electric scooter support an additional battery?

Hardware requirements and manufacturer limitations

  • Has the manufacturer designed the scooter to support an additional battery?
  • Can the controller handle increased capacity?
  • Will the additional battery affect the scooter’s stability?

Models with factory support for an additional battery

Some scooters, such as Xiaomi Pro 2, Ninebot Max G30, and Dualtron, allow for additional battery connection without modifying the electronics.

Where to buy an additional battery for a scooter?
