How does the additional battery for electric scooters work?
An additional external battery is a battery that you can connect to the primary (internal) battery and mount it outside the scooter (e.g. at the platform). External battery works simultaneously with the primary battery, thus noticeably increasing the range of the scooter. This is more than just a second life for your scooter - it's like upgrading to equipment 2-3 times more expensive!

Are extra batteries safe?
Just as, or even more, than having a regular battery in your platform. We use branded and, most importantly, brand new lithium-ion cells, which are the best quality, but above all, as safe as possible.
Why should you choose City Lion Batteries?
There are several reasons for that, the most important of them are:
- Firstly, we use branded, top-quality, brand-new cells – much better than those used by most manufacturers. Higher quality cells not only mean longer pack life but also greater safety for the user.
- Secondly, batteries are made by our highly trained technicians, in Poland! Each pack undergoes a series of safety tests before being shipped to the customer. We make every effort to ensure that every customer is satisfied with their purchase. In addition, we provide a one-year warranty on every purchase.
- Third, City Lion batteries have up to 4x the factory capacity. More range = less frequent recharging of your batteries, and this translates into a longer life for the City Lion pack, as well as the factory one fitted to your scooter.
The greatest advantages of external batteries
First and foremost, range. By installing the external battery the range of your scooter will increase several times – you will cover a distance of up to 70 kilometers!
Think of the savings: you don’t have to buy a new scooter, because you can have a much better effect for much cheaper.
I co-founded City Lion in December 2019. We manufacture and assemble battery packs for light electric vehicles. Within three years, we became the most popular European manufacturer of electric kick scooter batteries. Since 2023 we also produce electric bicycle batteries.
