Charging tips for the lithium ion battery

R. Kay had a question about charging her lithium ion battery and she sent in the following response she received from Tony at TravelScoot. This is in reference to the regular size lithium ion battery.
"It is vital that the charger be plugged into the wall power outlet first, then the battery into the charger. When the charger is plugged into the power outlet, both lights on the charger will flash briefly, and the left light will then remain illuminated. This indicates that the charger is getting power. When you then plug the battery into the charger, the light on the right will illuminate steady red until the battery is charged. At this point the light will turn green. Don't leave the battery hooked to the charger when not in use. If the battery is not being used for a longer period, charge it up every couple of weeks. Hope this helps."

Cozumel and My First Cruise


Hi everyone!

I just got home a few hours ago from my very first cruise. I have so much to say but I want to start off with a picture that says a thousand words. The background is the Caribbean and the picture was taken on shore in Cozumel. I would NEVER have made this cruise without my TravelScoot.

(The other people in the picture are my best friend Melissa and my husband Alan.)

Sheila at the pier in Naples, FL

From Sheila:

Here I am on my TravelScoot at the pier in Naples, FL...post cruise! The bag does look a little large...no wonder I landed in the post hole in Aruba!

You can probably tell that it wasn't all that warm when we were in "sunny FL"....All I had for warmth was one sweater and a windbreaker I brought for our cruise!

All I can say is that...with my back and hip issues....the TravelScoot was a godsend on our cruise..pre and post cruise, too!

Bump - bu - bump bump bump - b b b bump

From Lynn Ellen:

Cobblestones. How well does the TravelScoot do on surfaces such as one finds in Europe?

I have a friend whose sister is considering renting a Scoot for a trip to Ireland, and she's wondering how it will do on cobblestone roads.

I have taken my Scoot on some bumpy rides, as well as well-packed gravel and short grass. and there is certainly a certain amount of wear and tear and athletic challenge in going over uneven surfaces.

Lynn Ellen's CrampBuster Review

From Lynn Ellen:

I got my CrampBuster at the end of the week and used it a bunch on Saturday. what a sweet addition to my collection of accessories. it really does make running the TravelScoot easier, and easier to use left-handed if I happen to need my right hand to open a door or something.

I got the wider black one, but I wonder if sometimes it might be nice to have the narrower one. They are so inexpensive that I might get a narrow one too.
