Featured the scooter store ArticleWhat's With All The Voltage?
By Matthew Smith
Every day, customers either come in the store or call and ask about this scooter and that scooter. I ask everyone the same thing. What are you planning on using your scooter for? Some as transportation to work or school and more than most, the scooter is for their kids. But what scooter should you buy and what�s the big deal about voltage?
Electric scooters over the years have evolved tremendously. One thing that voltage plays a major role in is output power. The more voltage, the more output power that is available; but that is not the sole factor that determines power and that is not the only role that voltage plays in your electric scooters.
Lets start with the traditional 12 volt system. Now-a-days, the small kids electric scooters are single twelve volt systems. As you increase in wattage, that is how many watts of power that is generated by your electric scooter engine, the more juice that is required to power that engine more efficiently.
With the interest in faster electric scooters, the 24 volt system was introduced. The 24 volt system is traditionally a trickle-charge system where two 12 volt batteries are simultaneously connected and then the whole system runs the engine, as well as any other add-ons that you have on your electric powered scooter. If your scooter has the traditional headlight, brake light, turn signals and the such, then your battery setup is more than likely a trickle-charge system and these extra add-ons along with the motor require more juice than a simple 12 volt system would be able to support.
The traditional electric powered scooter that has all the extras will be either a 24 volt system or for the heavy duty and longer lasting electric scooters, you will get a much better setup with a 36 volt system.
The higher voltage systems provide more power to carry more weight farther. With a 24 v0lt system, your average electric powered scooter can travel for about ten to fifteen miles; if you�re lucky. The 36 volt systems have reached a maximum of twenty-five to even thirty miles on a single charge. There are some 48 volt systems out there that can travel up to thirty-five miles on a single charge, by those are few.
Simple comparison: Take a 24 volt 500 watt electric powered scooter and put a two-hundred pound rider on it and it will go an average of 12-18 miles, depending on the scooter. Take a 36 volt 500 watt electric powered scooter and put the same two-hundred pound rider on it and it will go an average of 16-24 miles on a single charge.
As you can see, voltage does make a difference when you are talking about the actual distance and the distance that your electric scooter will take you before needing more juice.
