These are GEL cel sealed Lead Acid Batteries used for LOW current deep drain applications.

Usual connection is to have 2 x 12v batteries in series.

IF you have a "standard" car battery charger , it can put too much current into the batterie(s) and potentially cause an over heat / over hydrogen production.

You need to get the right charger from the supplier to your local scooter shop. They have the right tools to fix the machine and to make sure it is safe . Yes it may cost some $$$, but they have liability insurance if anything goes wrong. This is not a DIY, as you don't want to have the thing go disabled as you are using it.

Yes, But. 2 pack so 6volt each, I will assume standard lead acid batteries as the is common, and that is what the pic shows. depends on what you call standard charger, I would not do it with my 40 year old standard charger, although at a push, it will still charge them, but need to keep a check on them, later chargers, monitor the battery voltage, and adjust output to suit. All chargers work the same way, so basically yes, but keep a check on them, not running to hot etc. check voltage if you can. But they all work the same way, just later cells are used to the controlled cct of later chargers. especially with them being so called sealed, they still let gas escape, via a pin hole, If they get hot, to much gas, going out, reduces the effiency of the electrolyte, so will reduce the life, BUT as long as you keep checking them and stop if they get hot no problem, they will get warm anyway.

How do I open a SC-600A Schumacher battery charger to repair it?

Unfortunately I have the same question. I have removed two screws, but no parts can be pulled off.
The person who wrote the following article apparently knows how to open the charger box.

How do you charge the EV warrior?

You need to obtain an "EV Warrior SuperCharger". I just found a few on Ebay for about $80
It is a 5A-24v battery charger with a standard 3 Prong Connector

Chair not holding charge

It's your batteries. If they charge at all, your charger is okay, if not at all, new charger is in order.

Don't run your batteries down past half-disharge if you can avoid it. Charge daily or even more often if you are a road warrior, but try to keep them topped off. They don't have a memory.

Motorola CP040 charging time

The rapid rate charger WPLN41__ will typically charge a battery in 90-120 minutes. Your battery should be depleted or nearly depleted when you place it in the charging stand. Be certain your radio is always turned off, when charging an attached battery. The NiMH battery will generally go 12-16 hours on a charge when new. If you work an eight hour shift, you might see if the radio will go 2 days on a charge. Later as the battery ages, you will need to charge it nightly. (Think of putting it in the charger as putting it to bed at night.)

Rapid charging is necessary on NiMH and Li-Ion batteries. They require a "hotter" charger, a fast rate, to completely charge the battery. It will not harm this chemistry of battery. It is safe to leave the battery on the charger overnight, or for a weekend. We would not recommend leaving the battery on the charger longer periods of time, as that will age the battery and reduce its life.

(Sidenote: Frequent rapid charging will however reduce the life of a NiCD battery.)

Schematic for EV Warrior Electric Bike

I have a PDF of the schematic i drew for my bike. it is posted on the Yahoo power-assist group. look in the files section.

http://tech.groups.yahoo.com/group/power-assist/files/EV-Warrior/

there is also a text file there that lists all of the wiring connectors and where each of the wires goes. as well as connection diagrams for the Curtis 1505 speed controller.

the charger circuit is very simple. the black and red wires from the charger port go straight to the batteries +24V and 0V terminals. the third white wire connects through a bullet connector to pin#7 (EPO wire) of the Curtis speed controller. this acts to turn off the motors while the batteries are being charged.

inside the charger male connector the pin for that 3rd white wire is shorted to ground. so when you plug the charger in the white wire is grounded thru the charger plug.

have fun. i really enjoyed my EV-Warriors while i could still ride them.

Zivan NG3 battery charger diagrams

Hi,
your NG3 should have been preprogrammed for the type of batteries you are charging. The NG3 has the 3 wires from the power cord. Here is what I have done:
Brown from charger goes to black wire
Blue goes to white wire
yellow green goes to green ground.

in fact only turned over once befors starter was clicking away. Pushed it home tried again - nothing. Put battery on charger - charged up in 15 minutes - tried to start - engine turned over couple of times then click click click at starter been out this morning checked all connections and earths - charged battery up - read 13.22v when full charge light came on, tried to start up - turned over several times, getting slowwr then click click. Checked battery reading 12.17v Any suggestions - is it the battery or what else?,The fact that the voltage drops as the revs increase is very odd. However, the dash voltmeter which I assume you are using is often inaccurate. Try an alternative battery, at least to see if it starts. You could use a car battery with jump leads. With a decent battery the charging might improve too.,,,
