Razor Pocket Mod Scooter 36v Upgrade!

Upgrading our stock 24v Pocket Mod to 36v electronics.
On Amazon if you search “LotFancy 36v” you will find the speed control module for around $29.50. The motor is a MY1020 36v motor. They come in a variety of wattages. I got an 800w one and the top Speed is around 16-18mph on flat ground, almost hitting 20mph on declines. You may want to go with a 1000w motor for more speed. Not sure if the controller can handle a 1000w motor though, you would need to check specs. Other than that, I used some random screws from my parts bin and the thick plywood doubled up to make the motor mount. We run this set up on a 4s lipo and 6s lipo run in series to essentially create a 10s lipo.

Derek and Courtney As far as I know, the system will not work on 24v, you need 36v to power the 36v motor and speed control. You would need three 12v batteries which will not fit in the stock battery location as it’s only meant to hold two 12v batteries for the stock 24v system. That is why I use lithium batteries kept in the seat compartment.

Hey, an old guy came the other day and asked me if i was interested in an old electric scooter for free. I said of course yes, and it was looking like your scooter but yellow plastic instead of the blue. Same wheels. Looked inside and same setup as yours with 2 old 12v 12ah lead batteries i am trying to revive now. Anyway, i am tempted to get a new lithium battery and i am also curious how this scooter with same hardware would react if i installed a 36v battery instead? And i also actually have a 48v battery for my electric bike wich i have bought a 60v battery for instead. HOW and what do i need to do to have this on a 36v battery and also if i am gonna try a 48v battery wich i already own? Is there some stepdown stuff i can use? I am curious about 36v straight to this scooter plug straight in, im sure you have tried it huh? How did it perform? Any tips are great welcome. Of course the cheapest tips on 36g and especially on 48v as i have that already.

[@MapleBoarder78]

@@RimjobHimself Throttle and speed control have to be for rated 36v to be able to use a 36v battery. I hooked a 36v battery to the stock 24v stuff before and it fried the motor after a few runs. Not sure about step down stuff, that’s out of my scope. Good luck with your build!

[@MapleBoarder78]

Hi Joey, I probably won’t have a chance to do a video about the wiring, but I can tell you what I did. I just snipped off the stock battery connector on the speed control and soldered on a deans (some people prefer XT-90 connectors). Then I drilled a hole under the seat right above the speed control to feed the deans connector through up to the batteries which you can see at 7:50 I use a basic lipo battery charger I bought on Amazon. You can get them for around $30-$50. To charge them I unplug them from the scooter and charge them on my work bench. Here is a link to a charger… smile.amazon.com/FCONEGY-Battery-Balance-Discharger-Batteries/dp/B0848J872Y/ref=mp_s_a_1_3?dchild=1&keywords=lipo+charger&qid=1632425933&sr=8-3 Lipo batteries are plentiful on Amazon and from places like HobbyKing. Unfortunately it can be hard to find good quality batteries for a good price. I tried buying cheapo lipos for a few years but always ran into issues with cell quality. You might have better luck.

thx for the quick reply. sorry for the dumb questions but, how do you get 40 volts out of (2) 14.8v lipo batteries.

One is a 4s (14.8v) and the other is a 6s (22.2v) ran in series for a total of 37v, but remember, that is nominal voltage assuming an average voltage of 3.7v per cell. The actual voltage of each cell when fully charged is 4.2v giving you 10 cells at 4.2v = 42v. You can also run two 5s lipos in series. Just make sure they have the same capacity and discharge rating.

For the 24v Razors I use a single 6s Lipo (or two 3s wired in series). For the 36v systems you need 10s, so either two 5s lipos in series or a 4s and 6s in series. For 48v systems I run two 6s lipos in series. Just make sure they are the same mah and C rating and they work. 👍🏼

I'm trying to retrofit my daughter's Pocket Mod v. 47 to have a variable speed throttle (not upgrading the battery or motor as you did). As far as I can tell, no one makes a kit for v. 47. I have the wiring diagram for the v. 44 and v. 47 and they are only different in how the controle module connects to the on/off switch and the battery (everything else is plug and play).

How did you do the batteries?

[@MapleBoarder78]

Jimmy Chafins Bought a 4s lipo and 6s lipo off Amazon and run them in series with deans connectors. I use low voltage detectors on them to keep them from running below 3 volts per cell. You need a lithium specific battery charger to charge them. 👍🏼

[@worldsmithgamez3928]

Is it faster then the mx350

[@MapleBoarder78]

Gonzalo Torres Yes, makes it about as fast as an MX500

[@jeff6369]

Really cool u did this for ur kids but I’m gonna say the plywood stuff isn’t really proper…js

[@MapleBoarder78]

I agree, but I do a lot of whacky stuff like that. I enjoy the experimenting and trying weird stuff to see if it will work or not. 👍🏼

[@SS-st6qr]

What's the part number for the batteries?

[@MapleBoarder78]

I don’t believe those batteries are available anymore. I’d search eBay or Amazon for a 6s and 4s lipo with matching mah ratings.

[@MapleBoarder78]

@@SS-st6qr That is the Low Voltage alarms.

[@SS-st6qr]

Thanks man, really appreciated it. Just bought my lil girl one of those scooters and I wanted to last longer than 15 minutes.

[@Zx14rrrrrrrrrrr]

How much was the parts?

[@MapleBoarder78]

You can get a motor/speed controller kit on Amazon or EBay for around $150-$200. And then a 36v lithium battery will run you around $150 or so depending on the size.

[@Zx14rrrrrrrrrrr]

@@MapleBoarder78 I have a bunch of 18v Milwaukee batteries that I put in my daughter's power wheels car. And some 36v batteries for my ego mower. I know the 36v would work. But would the milwaukees work?

[@MapleBoarder78]

@@Zx14rrrrrrrrrrr I’ve seen people use them but don’t know how they hold up long term. If you wired two in series you’d have 36v, but they may not have much capacity due to their size. My battery was an 8ah and was the size of a large brick. It could get us about 6-8 miles depending on the terrain and temperatures outside.

[@Zx14rrrrrrrrrrr]

@@MapleBoarder78 gotcha. I don't mind buying a motor and controller. But hopefully I can avoid buying batteries 😂 I already have plenty.

[@DavidFleisch]

whats the new top speed ?

[@MapleBoarder78]

Time stamp 6:30 in the video. Hit about 19mph on a slight decline. On flat ground it will probably cruise at 15-16mph.

[@onlydavidwould4356]

What's the range?

[@MapleBoarder78]

OnlyDavidWould Haven’t tested it fully, but We’ve gone about 6 miles before on dirt roads mixed with steep inclines. In the city I’d guess it would go around 8 miles or so.

[@thankyoujesus2836]

Does it also need a different charger now?

[@MapleBoarder78]

White light Yes, you need a charger that can charge lithium batteries. I bought a lithium battery charger on amazon for around $50

[@boontindo]

Any way you could add a list of links and monetize them for yourself? That would help us and help you...

[@MapleBoarder78]

Unfortunately I buy off eBay so links to any products off there won’t work once the seller removes the listing. Is there something you are having trouble finding? In the eBay search bar type in... -my1020 800w 36v motor -36v Razor control module In regards to the Lipo batteries and chargers, there are a hundred different brands you can go with. You’ll need to search battery forums to get recommendations. I just buy cheap knock offs on eBay. I use a basic 4s and 6s lipo run in series.

Is it possible to got more then 10 miles on this bike

[@MapleBoarder78]

Yes, you’ll need a battery with higher capacity. Probably around 16ah (16,000mah)

what battery did you use?

[@MapleBoarder78]

A 4s lipo and 6s lipo wired in series under the seat. If you watch toward the end of the video I show my battery set up.

[@milapen8156]

can they go up hills?

[@MapleBoarder78]

Mila Pen Yes, does pretty well. Speed up inclines will decrease as rider weight increases. My 60lb daughter can zip up a hill much faster than I can. I’m 150lbs.
