PTB Retrofit Kit

Description

Now you can have the benefit of a power tool battery in any of our older scooter models*: Echo, Sierra, and Cuda. Get rid of that old NiMh battery and replace it with the power of lithium! The benefits are huge: off the shelf batteries available worldwide, fast charging, and lower cost.

This product will mount two Power Tool Batteries in your scooter, providing 36v and up to 480 Wh of capacity, depending on which batteries you purchase.

It does require your scooter to have programable electronics, so the settings can be changed to suit the new battery. These have been standard for a while, but older models may not have them.  To check, all programable electronics have a small connector on the wires going to the reed switch. Don’t worry if you don’t have them, just make sure you add the upgrade to your purchase.

Range and runtime comparisons will depend on the Wh capacity of the original battery vs the Wh of the power tool packs you purchase. If you have batteries older than 2-3 years, your NiMh battery capacity could be significantly reduced and you will see an increase even if the original capacity was more than the PTB. Cuda owners will experience a small reduction in top speed.

This product will be significantly lighter than your original battery so you will need to change your weighting accordingly. The kit comes with 5 weight pouches that you can add to the nose of your scooter.

*Requires programable electronics.
