When it is connected correctly, I can disconnect it with one hand. However, the first time we connected it, it took a pair of plyers and some lubricant to get it apart. Luckily no damage was done to the connectors. I am impressed with being able to plug or unplug it with one hand.

Read this before connecting the battery
This post is for Lynn Ellen and Cynth, and anyone who is ordering a TravelScoot. You see the red connector on the left side of the battery? Do not, and I mean DO NOT connect the battery connectors together more than necessary. (Like if you have a really strong husband, read this to him several times before he connects the battery.) There IS a warning in the manual about this, but Alan and I didn't pay enough attention to it. I mean, you know, like... WHO reads the instruction manual? YOU should.

Very good info to know as I rarely read all the directions and I have arthritis in my hands so not being able to disconnect would be a big problem.
ReplyDeleteLynn Ellen I'd love to hear about your experiences with your travel scoot as well when it arrives.
I accidentally shoved it on too tight and it clicked... Any suggestions? I don't have a whole lot of burly arm strength and no weightlifters in the house... :(
