What type and size of battery should I use?

Your Travel Scooter requires two deep cycle batteries. We recommend only sealed, maintenance-free types such as AGM or Gel-Cell. Do not use wet-cell batteries, which have removable caps. Refer to the specifications table for size as batteries differ depending on manufacture.

WARNING! Corrosive chemicals are contained in batteries. Use only AGM or Gel-Cell batteries to reduce the risk of leakage or explosive conditions.

NOTE: Sealed batteries are not serviceable. Do not remove the caps.
