The only thing that bugs me is the charging jack on the scooter. It's a three prong thing exactly like the power cord of a computer. There must be one for positive and one for negative but what is the third one for. Opening up the rear fairings and seat of the scooter to see the battery and look at the wiring looks like a tedious job. I'll ask the dealer later this morning as I have to go see them to pick my second battery.
How about Postitive, Negative, and Ground maybe? You can buy those connectors and make your own cord. They are pretty simple to figure out. When I made my first one I think I googled the plug configuration to make sure that I connected the leads on the right position. The center one is the ground. Fast charging lead acid batteries on a regular basis is not a good idea. Plus fast charging lead acid cells creates a lot of hydrogen gas which is explosive. You really have to be careful when charging lead acid batteries.


SUPERMAXX YOUR LIFE.
