Electric scooters are made up of batteries made of a number of individual lithium ion (Li-Ion) 18650 cells. Li-Ion batteries have a very high energy density, and last for longer - often up to 10 times the time of other types of batteries.

It is vital to select the correct battery for your mobility scooter in order to get the most of it. A battery that is too big or too small for your mobility scooter won't last as long, whereas an item with a incorrect Amp hour rating will not provide enough power.

Every battery will experience an issue known as voltage sag which can reduce the battery's capacity. Voltage sag can be caused by a number of factors such as the battery's chemical composition temperatures, temperature and electrical resistance.

Batteries may shrink with time. The amount of sag is proportional the load placed on the battery. So, the heavier the battery is, the more the voltage will drop.
