Transformer help

Of that I have no idea, thats what is on the charger. The fuse is at the output lead to the scooter.

To previous replies it is 2 x 12v batteries in series. As these things only have around 20 miles range on full charge it would not be practible to charge with a normal charger for the end user as accessing the batteries would be a pain, ok as a one off but not for longer term usage.

Oh well it's the output fuse then.

It's the weight that is important rather than Ah though there is a relationship between the two.

I based the "fiver" on about 5 kg/battery and 50p/kg for weighing in, pessimistic so as not to raise the OPs hopes of retiring on the proceeds too much. 12 Ah SLAs come in at about 4 kg, 17 Ah about 6 kg, 24 Ah ~ 8 kg. I got 62p/kg for lead acid batteries about this time last year.

Ah, you meant the scrap value!

Bill

er yes as in "passing the scrappy". B-)

Just seen that they are 30+ Ah so proably around 13 kg each so maybe £15 weighed in.

And / or as a permanent solution (especially if the current charger is faulty).

However, I understand it might need more electrical / electronics knowledge than the OP has. ;-)

Maybe I ought to run the 8 x 6V 200Ah Crompton traction monoblocks that I've currently got sitting in my electric moke. ;-)
