We offer three different lithium-ion (li-ion) batteries. These can be installed/removed in seconds, and can be used as main or back-up batteries.
TravelScoot lithium-ion batteries are made of 100% Panasonic cells, housed in either a Sabic C6600 or Aluminium casing. Our airline-approved batteries feature a UL 94-5VB flame rating, are high impact resistant, and bromine and chlorine-free. When you buy a TravelScoot, you can rest assured that you are buying one of the safest batteries money can buy.
