12v Kids Ride-On PegPerego RZR Battery Upgrade w/ Dakota Lithium

- After only having our PegPerego RZR for about 6 months the battery was quickly declining in how long the charge would last.
I started researching the stock OEM sealed AGM battery and most places wanted around $70 for it. I quickly knew that I could come up with a much better solution for not a lot more.
This lead me to Dakota Lithium which I have been familiar for quite some time. For $109 I nearly doubled the the usable capacity of the battery and it will provide a much more linear and constant voltage curve. Not to mention they come with an 11 YEAR WARRANTY!!
This is something I've thought about doing for quite a while but didn't think I would be having to do it so soon.

I appreciate you showing us this. I’d love to see a materials list as well as a literal step by step so I can follow along as I’m doing mine. If you can keep us posted on runtime on full charge at both speeds that’d be great too. Awesome work!
Hello great video thank you for the help I just got my setup going. My power wheel has the built in charger plug that is 12v now. If I buy a 24v charger off Amazon with the same plug the car has will the 12v wires take the 24v charger and charge both batteries at the same time?
Pretty cool mod, but I wish you did a before-after with the car _loaded_ to see what real-world effect it would have. I don't think the wheel speed without load would differ between the two batteries, as long as the voltage is consistent.
my daughter has the exact same one, maybe you can make a video deatiling on how to make the wiring connector and materials thanks
I need help converting a 48 scooter. 800watt motor. I can't seem to find any thing to help me understand what I need to do. I have searched all over UA-cam and Google. I want to replace the 4 standard lead acid batteries (each 12v 12AH) with either LifePo4 or Lithium Ion batteries. I found the 48v Lithium ions on Amazon but I don't understand if I can use 48V with high AH like 20AH or does it have to be 12AH. It has a control box that says 48V 800watts and 28A I'm not sure what the 28A is, and I have seen some videos that say you need to do rewiring because you can't simply connect the negative and positive wires from the Battery control to a Lithium ion. I was also wondering if I can simply replace each one of the 4, 12V 12AH batteries with 12V 12AH LifePo4 batteries and simply use the same positive and negative connection terminals on each battery the same way it is currently set up with the factory Lead acid batteries, but then the charging comes into question and I don't know If I can cut my original charger of the scooter, and replace the end with a new one, like you did in this vid. Can you help me out please?
If you use 12v lithiums similar to the ones I am that are pre-assembled you can connect directly to them. So you would need four 12v batteries connected in series(positive to negative on each battery) to produce 48v.
The 20Ah only refers to the batteries capacity. That means it can output about 20A for one hour.
I'm guessing the people that are saying you can't connect directly to them are referring to raw lifepo4 cells(not pre-assembled). Lithium batteries need to be controlled by a BMS(battery management system). This is essential a small computer that safeguards all of the batteries functions and monitors its performance and parameters.
I hope this helps.

Does it increase speed?
It doesn't really increase the speed since it is operating at nearly the same voltage but it makes it a lot more consistent even at low SOC since LFP batteries have a very flat discharge curve.

@@michaelgreen3224 I've had zero issues so far. Still works the same.
So no circuit breaker needed?
