for electric scooters are substantially lighter than this because they are
built from thinner plates of lead and/or have less active volume even
though they are about the same dimensions.
There is no such simple weight vs. quality indicator for lithium batteries,
however.
Battery Disposal and Recycling
When the battery pack is no longer viable, it should be removed from the
bike and delivered to a recycling facility. Laws prohibit disposal of any
lead-acid or large lithium batteries in everyday trash. Please contact your
local solid waste or recycling authority for recycling information in your
area.
Extending Your Range by Adding Capacity
Any MOTORINO™ can benefit from greater battery capacity, but only
some models are capable of conveniently holding extra batteries.
The following capacity figures are for lead-acid gel-cell batteries. Lithium
batteries in the 26 A-h capacity are exactly the same physical dimension
as the 20 A-h lead-acid and can be used in similar configurations. Other
custom options may become possible as more variants and improve-
ments in lithium batteries become available. Please consult your MOTORI-
NO™ dealer regarding upgrading your battery capacity.

: 52 A-h maximum; an extra 20 A-h can be fit within the chassis
and 12 A-h under the seat. With some custom fabrication, a full second
set of 20 A-h batteries can be fitted.
XPh:
32 A-h maximum; extra 12 A-h batteries can be fit under the seat.
XPd & XPs:
No room within the stock bike.
Additional 48 V packs would be connected in parallel with the primary
battery, charging and discharging together. Higher-current chargers are
available to keep your charge times around the standard 8 hours.
Purchasing extra batteries to augment a battery that is well into its cycle
life is not wise. The best value is achieved by installing all batteries at the
same time.
When considering adding capacity, please bear in mind the effect of the
added weight, especially if you are uncomfortable on a heavy bike or
have very steep hills on your commute.
