How to Change the Battery on the Razor E300 and E300S Electric Scooter

[@robeenero]

wow. you got those connectors back on really easily. I'm heading towards 25 minutes and can't get one on with such a tight space.

[@GlitchedPepsi]

It’s easier to unscrew the speed controller then put connectors in then re screw

[@kingbee1971]

Nicely done. I would recommend testing that the batteries and connections are working prior to securing the top deck. That way, if there's a problem, you won't need to unscrew the top deck again.

[@goldbunny1973]

Nice clear video. Worth a mention is which battery E300 uses. I think a better way of not losing/getting confused over screws is to tape them to the cover beside the hole they go into. I acquired a RAZR 300 yesterday; It looks like fun. Love the chunky wheels! I'm thinking the batteries can be 'upgraded' 7Ah to 9Ah & still fit the case. L151mm W65mm D98mm

[@jamesbuttleman3130]

Straight forward right to the point, easy to understand presentation. Well done.

[@robertdavis1693]

Excellent presentation. I should have looked at this first before I removed every connection and created a little extra confusion for myself.

[@brianjohnston2168]

I want to see how you did the terminals, as the one I have they are soldered to the clips, not so easy to just pull off and if you aren't mechanically inclined, like myself, harder then you think.

[@eljefe245]

Can I upgrade the batteries with the same voltage but different Ah?

[@jakegoldman6344]

yes

[@ThomasMarioFan_11]

I'm getting the e300s for my 17 birthday and I was wondering if I can modify it and put in a better battery at one point to make it go faster

[@daviddeluca968]

No it would be way to difficult unless you know a lot about this type of stuff.

[@unravelingarts7856]

Only one that would fit the dimension is 12v 9ah battery

[@ThomasMarioFan_11]

Ok thank you

[@philipsavenkov6405]

Lol you can get a 10ah. I did a 12ah and it works fine but im not comfortable going higher than that.

[@ThomasMarioFan_11]

@@philipsavenkov6405 its ok. I'm gonna get the xiaomi m365 instead

[@hotdon1]

How do you get the red and black wires off of the old batteries i can't get them off.

[@mohammedsharif2651]

Great job.👏👏👏

[@stuartlaw3575]

batteries don,t come with leads attached , so you have unsolder them first

[@soup4breakfast]

You didn't show how to connect the wires to the new battery. All you showed were the easy connections!

[@Claudia-mp2wx]

rontomboone yes exactly I had my friends dad melt the metal and it took hours so he had to melt it back to the new battery’s he did not even tell you how to do this wire thing on the video

[@dfuma213]

Just a soldering iron and solder is all you need

[@VRUAN]

@@dfuma213 So it takes 15 minutes to do the soldering?

[@EdwardInTX]

I show wiring in my video kzbin.info/www/bejne/eoOuhn6Dl7N-q80

[@stephenwhitehouse3245]

How long should the batteries be charged after replacement?

[@hello12404]

8 to 12 hrs

[@stephenwhitehouse3245]

I relaced the batteries after charging overnight. I hear a 'chirp' noise from the motor but nothing turns the chain. Bad motor?

[@gwiggy]

How long should I let new batteries charge for once they’re in?

[@moesie133]

do you need change the battery or is that for a upgrade

[@s_amza]

You need to change the battery approximately every year

[@skate7board742]

I’ve had my for almost seven years and I need to change the batery

[@titanicbrosgaming8085]

I only had mine since Christmas 2018 and it needs a battery replacement bc it doesn't last long

[@tgallagher3256]

I modified my e300 to where it's now 36v 800watts. I recently went to 2 - 18v lithium batteries but did not connect the circuit breaker when re-wiring the batteries and notice that the batteries start losing power immediately. Do I need to connect the circuit breaker to have longer battery life?

[@jonp6798]

Hi, I know it's been a long time but I;ve stumbled across this unanswered. If you've modified it to run on 36v you must have changed the controller, batteries and motor. If you haven't that's your problem. You can't just change the voltage the system runs on without doing all that. If you have changed all that then there's nothing left of the original system apart from the frame so speak to where you got all that from.

[@VRUAN]

If you don't have an electronic engineering degree don't try to do that to risk your life. And from a better school, too.

[@dangggboy6066]

How do you get a scuff of the side

[@JB-js4xi]

Mine came scuffed on the side...I think they get damaged in shipping or that is what I feel happened to mine.

[@VRUAN]

Set a ribbon underneath the batteries after you install the new ones.

[@terrywortz9812]

The screws holding the battery strap are not coming loose and the heads are about stripped out. Any suggestions?

[@VRUAN]

Change the screws.

[@orionsmith3362]

Same here they are fused

[@orionsmith3362]

And that person that said to change them. We cant. I broke two tools trying to get it loose

[@saishshinde819]

I have installed new two 12 V. 7AH batteries and when I stand on the scooter, it works for a second and then stops working. but if I lift the rear wheel up and start the scooter it works just fine... what might be the issue?

[@BrainFogDanellesReviews]

You were sold a junk battery. You can test the voltage but not the torque of battery (AH). I was scammed b4 too but luckily I got a refund.

[@ttmich]

Excellent instruction!

[@Violet_Lotus_]

when I buy new batteries, do they have to have those wires already attached?

[@maxwell6504]

if you pay $80. you can get them for $30 w.o the wires

[@Violet_Lotus_]

Thank you, @@maxwell6504 I bought the $30 ones and figured it all out via youtube videos. It wasn't that hard... just takes patience and focus.🤓

[@maxwell6504]

@@Violet_Lotus_ Same-what were your symptoms of having bad batteries?

[@VRUAN]

@@Violet_Lotus_ Can you provide the KZbin links for tutorial videos?

[@VRUAN]

"This is a pretty easy process...it'll take you approximately15 minutes from start to finish." Kind of true but there is a problem he did not mention. The connectors at the end of wires to connect with the battery is welded dead. That makes most people, especially teenagers, won't be able to do the job so they just abandon their scooters to the trash dump. In order to replace the battery, it take more than 15 minutes because you either use a welder iron to melt the welder off to remove it, or cut the wire off, then use a new connector (not provided) to connect with the battery's terminals. Neither way is a layman's job. And if you choose to use the second way, you can change your battery at most three times before you cut completely off the wire.

[@JETBYE]

it's called a spanner and a Allen key

[@user-cruton]

Yep my replacement battery didn't come with wires attached. What a pain in the ass it was to cut,splice and put new connectors on.

[@sfzzzzzz]

I live in Canada, where can I purchase the batteries?

[@cadenp9103]

This is where I got em, but dont know if it will work in Canada www.batteriesplus.com/battery/electric-bike-and-scooter/razor/e300

[@r-meister25]

Mine just straight up isn’t charging anymore

[@Rob-el8ti]

Why those heavy batteries not lithium batterys ? Would you recommend any lighter weight batteries ?

[@razorworldwide]

Hi Rob-- We have other scooters that feature lithium batteries-- the EPrime and the Power A2.

[@Rob-el8ti]

@@razorworldwide ive got the e300 but i was wondering ,is there a kit to convert the battery from the lead acid to lipo or lititum batteries?

[@razorworldwide]

No, sorry, we don't sell a conversion kit.

[@VRUAN]

@@Rob-el8ti As long as it's polarized 24 volt, it will work. The problems are you can't use any of the 24v lithium batteries from wireless tools because there are no terminals on the batteries to connect with. If you can modify the scooter's wiring configuration so that the end of wires can be inserted into the 24v lithium batteries' positive and negative then you may succeed.

[@Gabriel-ds1qg]

where i can buy the battery ?

[@razorworldwide]

Hi-- You can buy the battery through Razor.com's parts site: www.razor.com/support/

[@MFnDahk]

Meanwhile, my batteries didn't come with new wires and the old ones are soldered to the batteries.. this video is a joke..

[@kreamylive]

What is the battery name

[@midnight94387]

just search up razor E300 batteries

[@GTVAlfaMan]

12v7ah

[@Diecast_Boy93]

I bought batteries 🔋 they didn’t come with cables

[@scorpio3373]

I tried changing my 7ah batteries to 9ah and I am getting a clicking sound when I turn the throttle. Why.

[@oliverrufa1064]

* Scorpio It is most likely because your e300 speed controller and or motor can’t handle 9ah

[@jonp6798]

Hi, I'm probably going to do this as I have some lying around. The ah rating is just the capacity so it won't be that (sorry Oliver). You're not indicating where the clicking is coming from. Few options, the batteries could be moving around, the batteries could be badly matched (12v wired in series to make 24v) so check both of those. Need more info as to where the clicking is coming from.

[@plakeplays6420]

Instruction is not very good with which cables

Make it power core 100

[@rsz90182]

This god damed guy had the wires covered and out of site so we cannot see the wiring. I want to fix one that was stripped already and cannot get the pin outs. Thanks for blocking all wiring you get thumbs down.

[@tjbay13]

these scooters need to charge waaaaaaay too long for just 40 minutes of operation. Frustrating for kids. Lead battery lol. Its damn near antique. starting to wish I hadnt bought one for my son. I mean, if this were engineered for an easier battery replacement and charge, you could own a few batteries, charge them separately, and swap them in and out as needed for use. But no. They didnt do that.

[@VRUAN]

"Its damn near antique" Not really...All the car batteries are still lead acid. Because of the lead acid(sulfuric acid), it is not safe to store multiple batteries in the house, charge them, to swap. If you got burn by acid who would you go to claim the damages?

[@plakeplays6420]

Thats not easy but sure

[@wc6740]

Just throw e300 in the garbage. Buy a new scooter save some time.

[@VRUAN]

you are wealthy

[@nathbeste1216]

Why would anyone bother with this cheap nasty crap!

[@VRUAN]

Because we were trapped.
