Battery care in summer: five habits that add years to a lithium pack

Heat is what ages a battery fastest. Five things that cost nothing and make a real difference.

Lithium packs do not mind being used. They mind being hot, and they mind sitting full or empty for weeks. Five habits worth building.

Do not charge straight after a long ride

Give the pack twenty minutes to cool. Charging a hot battery is the single fastest way to age it.

Park in shade

A scooter in direct afternoon sun can reach temperatures that shorten pack life measurably over a season. Shade is free.

Avoid sitting at 100 percent

If you are not riding tomorrow, stop around 80 percent. For storage longer than a fortnight, leave it near half and top up monthly.

Use the supplied charger

It talks to the battery management system. A generic charger does not, and the pack pays for it.

Keep the tyres right

Not a battery habit as such, but under-inflated tyres make the motor work harder, which drains the pack faster and heats it more.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

How far does one charge go?

Our scooters cover 60–110 km on a full charge and the e-rickshaws 100–125 km, depending on the model, load and riding conditions. The exact figure for each vehicle is on its product page.

How long does charging take?

Around 4–6 hours from empty to full on an ordinary 5A household socket. You can charge at home, at the shop or at any of our showrooms.

Do I need a licence or registration?

Low-speed models limited to 25 km/h need no licence and no registration. High-speed scooters and all e-rickshaws need a valid driving licence and registration.

What warranty comes with the vehicle?

One year on the motor, controller and charger. Lithium batteries carry a separate three-year pro-rata warranty. Service and genuine spares are available at every showroom.

Is finance or EMI available?

Yes. We arrange finance through our partners with easy EMI options. Bring your ID, address proof and bank details to any showroom and our team works out a plan with you.
