Wide selection of chargers for scooters, electric bikes, motorbikes, hoverboards.
Have we lost our charger? What do we need to know before ordering a new one?
1. Output voltage
2. Output current / power
3. Model connector
4. Type of battery
The output voltage
A key parameter we need to know. The most common standard chargers have a voltage of 36V, 42V and 48V, and there are also those with a slightly higher voltage of 67V and 84V. It is good to know that if you have a lithium ion battery with 13S (cells) and it says 48V, the charger must have an output voltage of 54.6V to be able to charge the battery to 100%.
Output current or power
All battery manufacturers recommend that they be charged to no more than 20% of their capacity. That is, if you have a 10A battery, it is good for the charger to be no more than 2A. But the smaller output current affects the required time of the charging process. That's why here again we have several standard powers imposed. The most common chargers for scooters are 2A, although there are also those with 3A or even 5A.
Output connector/socket
There are chargers for scooters, electric bikes and motorbikes on the market with so many connectors that it's easy to get confused. The most common are 5.5MM/2.1MM thick DC connectors, but you may also find 3-pin XLP, GX16, RCA, and IEC connectors. To simplify the selection process, most of our adapters have 5.5MM/2.1MM DC connectors and we offer a wide range of adapters to other standard connectors.
Battery type
The most commonly used batteries these days are lithium batteries. With their small size, light weight and high power and inrush current, they have established themselves permanently in the market for the last 10 years. Among them, the most common are Lithium-ion, Lithium-polymer and Lithium-iron. However, Nickel Cadmium batteries and Nickel Metal Hydride batteries are still available on the market. It's good to be prepared with the type and number of cells in your battery. This will make it much easier for the seller against you.
