does anyone know where this is? or the charger for that matter. I was charging my scooter everything fine... I smelled an electrical smell and now no charge....
Hello Michael, The charger is in the compartment under the dash. You must remove the 6 hex screws to get to it. You'll probably need to remove the batteries as...
Has anyone tried hooking up PV to re-charge or tricle charge the eGO batteries? The owner's mannual is pretty limited on information...I was thinking of doing...
It's not a mobile solution to charging IMO. It takes about half a sheet of plywood size worth of med to high efficiency panels to charge an eGO for one charge...
Hi! New to the group and have a couple questions I hope you can help with. I bought 2 eGo's new back in 1994 and they have not seen much use, so I am...
Welcome Bill Are your sure about the year 1994? I don't think eGO's existed that far back. Anyway, the battery gauge is acurate but non linear. In general it ...
Thanks Aerowatt. I'll check on the year, maybe it's 95? Is there a way I can discharge the batteries without riding (I don't want to get stranded!). Are we...
You can just leave the key on (with the headlight on) if they are in a secure location. It will take hours for each discharge this way though (up to 16 hours)....
To discharge them faster, you can put blocks under the eGOs so their rear wheel is off the ground, then you can turn them on and throttle them to a medium...
Thanks again. I will try this...but I have a question as my situation is that I can charge the batteries (amber goes to green) but when I remove the charger...
That shows that the batteries have high resistence. They could be gonners or recoverable. The only way to know it to try recovery. Just go ahead and run the...
Tried draining the batteries by running the headlight but to my surprise, headlight doesn't work! Instead, I put the eGo on blocks and did the duct tape method...
Just a thought but are you taking readings from the gauge while underway, or only when stopped? eGO gauges generally read pretty low underway because of the...
Sorry I don't have a clue about your batteries, but your story about your scooters being from 1993 is very odd... Ego Vehicle's website has a synopsis of the...
The guage readings are done when the ego is completely stopped and the power has been cycled (key turned off, then back on). I don't think these are eGo 1's as...
I'm sure glad we got that model year thing cleared up. 1993 eGO's was boggling my mind! It's not uncommon for troubled batteries to show full off the charger ...
Charged up both sets of batteries (I have two eGos) and took them to Batteries Plus for a diagnosis. The guy there hooked up some kind of meter to read their...
I'm thinking of getting an eGo but would love to see one / ride one first. Any NJ people on this list who might like to 'show off' their scoot? David...
One of the few things I've been disappointed with from the beginning on my eGo has been the rear V-brake. Even when mine has been in perfect adjustment, it's...
Someone posted a photo of a black Helio taken at a trade show in Europe a while back. That particular cycle has a rear disc brake that's mounted to a modified...
When my health was better I used to do a lot of trail riding on mountain bikes out here in the southern Rockies. Even did some racing for two seasons. My bike...
I looked around the web looking for some instructions on setting up the v brakes for max effect. I didn't find the technique that I was taught by other...
I just bought a used eGo off Craigslist from a guy outside of Boston. Everything seems ok, except the tail light. On my maiden voyage, it was working. I see...
Thanks to everyone who responded to my request for suggestions. Apparently no one shares my dissatisfaction with the current V brake, nor my enthusiasm for a...
I have a prospective customer that is interested in a eGo that lives in the coastal hills and has a 75% grade to get to her house. Since I live in the central...
i agree with Bob. i have a couple of 20% grade hills, both about 1/4 mile and the hill climber gear + fan rig takes it in stride. no overheating even in hot...
