How to Upgrade your Go Go Scooter to Lithium
Вставка
- Опубліковано 15 сер 2022
- In this video, we will demonstrate how easy it is to replace your batteries on a Pride Mobility Go-Go Travel scooter. We will cover both sizes of the Travel scooter pack in case you have the standard 12ah size or the larger 18ah size. This can be done at home within 20 mins. If you have a 12v12ah battery pack you only need a 6in #2 Phillips screwdriver! If you have the larger 12v18ah pack that is found on the go go sport of the elite traveler you will need a drill or some snips as well. Keep in mind our lithium battery has more capacity as well so the 12ah is now an 18ah and the 18ah is now a 23ah size. On top have a better battery you also get more capacity!
The number one question we get from our customers is how can I get more distance from my current mobility scooter? Well, we have the answer and it is an easy one! Ditch your old sealed acid battery and get what all the smart people are using our @DakotaLithium upgrade! If you watch my other video where I took the standard batteries out and then replaced them with lithium, the results were nothing but short of amazing! The scooter had a max range of 8 miles and I could get it to do 18miles at full speed! That's over 100% improvement in distance + the batter is lighter + has 10 years more warranty. What are you even reading this for call us! 866 935 1069
This video covers the Pride Mobility Go-Go Line, if you have a brand new scooter or your scooter is still under the manufacturer's warranty this will void your warranty. We know that our battery warranty is much longer than the scooters, so just give us a call whenever you are ready!
Scooters this will work for : go go sport, go go elite traveler ( plus included ) , go go ultra x, go go lx.

I probably have said this before, in regards the section in manufatures owners manuals and service guides, the manufacture warning owners do not use any two way radio device. Talking from expierence, I've use a two way radio while operating my scooter without interruption to the scooter's motor. However, i can't say that for any scooter, but the mid to large size, there shouldn't be any issues. I mean if all the connections are secured and the cables are properly shielded, I say why not, I don't really see a problem using a UHF / VHF two way radios or mobile phones. Of course using a old school CB Hand Held, because of AM carrier, AM picks up noise from electric motors more so then FM. Those Bubble Pack FRS / GMRS radios shouldn't have too much of an effect or even the VHF MURS, which you'll see Walmart Sams Club associates use them. I don't condone holding a heavy conversation while driving, but I won't rule out using two way either for work or play while operating a scooter. Scooters, such the GOGO series I wouldn't use while moving.
So my buddy tells me that in the past There used to be more interference on some of the older scooters But as you can see I do a lot of GPS testing testing and range test inches while on the phone and I haven't encountered a is encountered a issue yet
I Hope you are doing well Adam I see you on your C4 in your picture and want to thank you so much for your business and continued support of this UA-cam channel
@@MobilityScooterSales I'm fine just trying figure out when I'll be venturing down to Florida. I've been going to visit my Aunt each year since 2015. I hate going back to Pennsylvania. I wish I could find an apartmet and a job and stay in Florida
@@Adamdaj I hope you find a way down here man I love it I was born and raised down here it's really hot but other than that I love it. I have a live stream where I'm gonna answer more questions on August 25th I was wondering if you can help me share it
After the upgrade, is it possible to just do a straight one for one replacement of the gauge to a ELE2008025?
Thanks & how about the new range for go go elite traveler (plus) with lithium batteries ? (Maximum distance).
Hello so how much does the 2pk for the Dakota Lithium Batteries cost for my Pride Go Go Sport 4-Wheel Mobility Scooter and the 12V 23Ah would be good please let me know Thanks Tom
Thank you
You're welcome
how does shipping to canada work? current batteries work but not ideal, looking to make a change :)
Call us or email us I'm pretty sure we could ship to you
When you upgrade the batteries to the 12v 18ah...do you need to upgrade the charging port?
All you need to get is the XLR lithium charger it's an option on our website or you can order it separately
Do you have a kit for a Metro mobility Patriot?
👍👍
Hello! If I upgrade my Pride gogo elite traveler to lithium batteries, will my old battery charger work or will I need to also buy a lithium battery charger? Thanks!
You will need a new charger, call 866 935 1069
Hey we question for you I opened the lid of my go go elite traveller but it has nuts and not screws I'm so confused as to how to install it. I know it's simpler but yours is completely different. This one came with the scooter itself. I think it's the 18v one. Why would mine be bolts and yours screws? I'm in the UK. Thanks
Sorry meant to say 12v the bigger ones you have there.
Can you email me a picture? All you need to look at is how the batteries attach is it with clips or screws
So if you have the bigger 18 amp hour batteries you're gonna want to order our 23 lithiums
Does the bigger battery box physically fit on the SC40E and it’s only the internal wiring that different between the two boxes. What I want to do is go with the biggest batteries with the biggest box in lithium.
Go go elite traveller yes same pack as the sport 🙌 sc40e or sc73
@@MobilityScooterSales So you have the bigger battery box that will fit on my SC40E and will hold the 23amp lithium batteries? I’m ready to order, need part numbers.
@@Bob61944 The Sc40e extended range pack is discontinued, call my team and ask them for a go go sport pack with 23ah dakota battery 866 935 1069 the go go sport pack will for your sc40e perfectly
@@MobilityScooterSales This is what I thought and I’m so glad you confirmed it. Why didn’t your guy that called me yesterday know this? Now just need to place a order and hope everything gets delivered before we leave on our trip. Any secret discount codes or Veteran discount available?
@@Bob61944 My parts team works remotely and only knows what pride tells them, I spoke with them today about this, and then tested it on our store models, they all learned something today 😄
I need this vehicle for replacing the wheelchair and for short distances.it is not for other family members.
Don you sell used Dakota batteries
Can you put a 20 ah work in the gogo elite mobility scooter?
We have a new lithium that will fit in place of the 12 ah battery it is to be released next week
Call my parts team 866 935 1069
The question I have is what about the meter. Does that have to be changed to know battery life?
Currently yes i'm thinking about making a video on how to install a ten dollar. Twenty four volt meter that you could get on amazon into the battery box.
@@MobilityScooterSales
So the OEM meter needs to be replaced or would it work on the lithium batteries?
O e m needs to be replaced as of now. But soon the. Batteries? Will have blue tooth in it and you can use an app so I would just wait personally?
@@MobilityScooterSales Have you made this video? Could you link to a meter? I haven't seen a BT option on LiPo batteries. Thx.
@@MobilityScooterSales I would also love to see how to add a meter for lithium batteries.
Can u take a gogo with the Dakota on an airplane
No too large to fly
That is not true we called the airlines and they said yes, but mine has an AGM battery I don't know about flying with lithium batteries.
@@munirladha6787 AGM and Lithium are two totally different batteries... Lithium is much more volatile and airlines do not allow them past a certain Amp Hour size, I believe it is around 8.5AH, but the AGM Batteries are allowed in much larger sizes.
How much are the batteries

Lithium batteries die out at 24 volts 80%, and the LeadAcid scooter guage is for 24volt max; meaning your guage wont be accurate or dependable. Adding a resistor to the old charge gauge will likely work, or a switched resistor for both Lead Acid or Lithium. There's also a round 30mm lithium guage listed on aliexpress which is merely a volt meter; but will work once you learn to keep it charged above 80% (20% run range). Also, the new gogo lithium scooter's guage may be an easy swap-out... Can't make up my mind on which way to go; a, b, or c?
what way did you go?, I was considering ordering a ELE2008025 from a later lithium model as a straight gauge replacement for exisiting gauge
@@darranguy8526 - Used from Ebay might be the way to go. I added a 400ohm resistor between the hot wire to guage, and that works as well.
im sujre they are good but man they are expensive
It's cause they're multiple times better than SLA batteries. Plus, lithium batteries have longer life too. Thanks for watching @mikestowe6136!
I hate to say but as of now I can’t recommend buying any Pride mobility stuff. Unless they can get their act together on getting stuff fixed under warranty. I have a Pride raptor I bought and revived in June and it broke in July. Factory defect. Well as of this day Pride still has not sent the parts or even a tracking number to WSR who they using for warranty work. This is unacceptable for a company that makes a scooter that I paired $2500 for and can’t even use it. I don’t blame you all at Mobility Direct for selling it to me but I sure blame pride for not standing behind their product
I'm super sorry to hear that Robert. Did you purchase it from us? I know they just discontinued the scooter and they are bringing out the new One. Also on a side note a lot of parts are on backorder at the moment Please let me know if there's anything my team can do to assist you
@@MobilityScooterSales yes I bought it threw your company. Your people the one that started the warranty request for me.
My team will call you soon, I looked into this for you and your part is scheduled to arrive early next month
@@MobilityScooterSales thank you I don’t understand why no one else was able to get answers I just how they do get this taken care of soon. This has left me basically stranded by not having access to a scooter.
I was going to have these instead of the basic type batteries i have at present. But, i was told i had to have certain things changed on my scooter first to make it compatible with Lithium powered batteries Costing me no less than £200+ ( $ 250 to 300approx poss more!!!! ) without the batteries at another additional cost of about £400 + a pair of those fantastic Dakota Lithium batteries possibly more So, average cost of about £600+ minimum. Of which i sadly can't afford. So, i sadly have to just put up with these things on a limited range. WORSE!!! when it is in very cold weather a few hundred yards if i am lucky So, i become literally housebound because these batteries really hate & it doesn't work in cold weather. If i could i wouldn't hesitate to have my scooter converted to use Lithium batteries ( if conversion wasn't needed or so expensive.) Maybe one day i might get it done but, it really looks like it never will. 😮😟😟😟😟 So, i have to put up with these things. 😠👎
Hello the Stig and thank you for your comment. Sorry to hear about that I'm hoping that eventually this lithium comes down in price. I would agree with you. It's kind of pricey like most things now
So yes you need new chargers 😂
100%
Mine takes five batteries 60 V 20 amp batteries I will do great then
IF youtub does not let me stop the adds I will no longer watch youtob thing sucks
