1.4 Introduction to Gogoro Network® Battery
Gogoro Network® Battery is the power source of Smartscooter®, and it is also an important
composition of the iQ System®.
It has the following features:
●
High power density: One Gogoro Network® Battery weighs only about 9 kg, yet it can
provide more than 4 kW of power, and two batteries can exceed 8 kW, giving
Smartscooter® all the power it needs.
●
Multiple layers of safety protection: The advanced BMS (Battery Management System)
and sturdy physical protection keeps the battery safe while holding lots of energy inside.
●
Smart data preservation: It can record riding data, charge / discharge status, system
health, etc., and send them back to the cloud server through the GoStation®, which is
convenient for Smartscooter® inspection and maintenance. Charging and discharging
also need to undergo strict authentication to prevent theft of Smartscooter® and
battery, thus no counterfeit battery can exist.
For Smartscooter® riders, as long as they need to replenish the power, they can swap batteries
at the nearest GoStation® in just a few seconds, swap & go, which is much faster than
refueling a gas scooter. Furthermore, whenever there is an update of the iQ System®, the
newly swapped batteries can also be used to transfer the new software, so that your
Smartscooter® can always have the latest features and keep up-to-date.
High-capacity Gogoro Network® Battery may cause risk of fire or electric shock if not properly
handled. To ensure the safety of owners, riders and other personnel, please take extra care
when using Gogoro Network® Battery:
●
It’s strictly forbidden to use the batteries in any way not approved by Gogoro
Network®.
●
Each Gogoro Network® Battery weighs about 9 kg. Please handle it with care.
●
