Hi Charles,
Thanks for joining the community. If you have any questions, we and others are here for you!
in reply to: Hello, Just join.The system is used on a 24-volt system. The amp hours doesn’t matter as long as you have enough amp hours to make the unit run for a longer period of time. I am not sure how you would make the battery, but good luck with that!
in reply to: want to build battery for quantum 600zHi Jay,
Yes some of the parts are interchangeable. You really just have to make sure the models are the same models. Every few years the model may be changed a bit, and that slight change is enough to make your parts not compatible with the next generation. You could use the same theory when working on automobiles.
in reply to: Won't go into drive modeWe do not recommend you put any other tires on the mobility scooters that the manufacturer doesn’t recommend. This would not be advised.
in reply to: Pneumatic tires on a Go-GoSounds like you’re killing your batteries by not using a charger that is provided by the manufacturer. If you need a charger replacement, I would get the exact one that came with the scooter. Otherwise, you could damage your batteries which are expensive. I would recommend finding the GoGo scooter model on our site, then looking at the specs to see how many amps the charger is that comes with it.

After you’ve identified how many amps your charger is supposed to be, you should know if you’re killing your batteries or not. I imagine 3 amps is the highest you’ll be able to go since all GOGO’s are travel units with relatively small batteries.
in reply to: Pride go-go eliteBatteries typically only last about 1.5 to 2 years. Its’ likely just time to replace the batteries. You can visit our repair site http://www.statewidemobility.com to request a repair call.
in reply to: Pride MobilityHello,
Unfortunately, that is not a brand that we sell. It is not a familiar brand by our technicians either. If your batteries are fully charged, and your connections are fine, you may want to look to see if the electronic brake is disengaged. If you can physically roll the scooter without a key in the scooter, you must switch the brake (usually a lever on the back right of the scooter) to the opposite position so that the wheels are locked or engaged.
If your scooter is still not working by the time you read this reply, you should contact the manufacturers directly. If you are looking a mobility scooter, we suggest taking a look at the best mobility scooter brands we have to offer.
in reply to: Scooter Freedom Mayfair faultyThere are many issues you could be having with your Drive Centurion MMX. Unfortunately, that product has been discontinued for several years. Parts are not readily available for this unit. I would highly suggest looking at your user manual and identify what the beep sequence would be. Typically at 2;4 beep code would indicate that this is a lack of power getting to the controller. Make sure that all connections are tight or perhaps start by replacing the batteries. 9 times out of 10 a mobility scooter malfunction is related to the batteries.

in reply to: Which electric wheelchairHello Bolocarver,
Typically if you buy an inexpensive charger, they will not last long – The wires are very flimsy.
You want to get something with a strong housing and thick wires so that they don’t break free. We only sell top rated chargers which is why they’re rather expensive. You can expect them to outlast any of the low priced ones you find online.

in reply to: Cheap Battery ChargerHello Marym5150, may I ask what type of unit you have? Often times if you refer to our beep code guides, you can find the answer. Below are some helpful links:
Here is a link to the product page for the charger you would need:
https://www.mobilityscootersdirect.com/accessories/battery-charger-24v-8amp-universal-xlr.html
You have 75ah batteries which are very big batteries and require a very strong charger to provide an efficient charge time.
Good day Brenda,
If you to upgrade to the larger battery pack then you would have to buy the larger battery pack and the larger batteries. The larger batteries won’t fit in the standard 12 ah battery pack that comes with the unit.
That answer goes for any mobility scooter that has an upgrade-able battery pack.

in reply to: Will the spit fire scout take 20 AH batteries?Hello Gsau22, that sounds like you have a battery issue. Not enough voltage getting to the transaxle is probably what’s happening. I would recommend getting new batteries.
