Typical 250 watt Chinese made scooter motor I took off an electric scooter that was junked. I’m testing this using a car battery charger with a capacitor in parallel to smooth the charger output. I may eventually use this on a homemade scooter or pocket-bike Maker: Unite Motor Co LTD Model MY1016 Permanent Magnet DC 24 vdc 14amp 250 watt 2500RPMs

I have a schwinn 750 wats, 36 volts, and i was wondering what would happen if i would buy and put a 1000 wat , 36 volt motor, would it have more power , would it go faster? would battery die faster? what would happen? if i would add an extra battery (the normal one has 3 sets of 13 volts each, ) what if i would add another 13 volts ? please help, best longest answer, 10 points guaranteed.
More power will be available from it depending on the position of the throttle. When the throttle is wide open then yes, it will be faster and accelerate better than the existing 750 watt motor. It will also deplete the battery faster. However, for any specific speed or rate of acceleration, if that same speed or rate of acceleration can be matched by the 750 watt motor, then it will deplete the battery at the same rate. Only when a load, above and beyond what the 750 watt battery is capable of delivering, will it deplete the battery faster. There will also be an small penalty based on the fact that the 1000 watt motor is probably a little heavier, and therefore, requires a little more current at any specific speed or load than the 750 watt motor. I can elaborate if you want.
By the way, it won't blow up!!!
Gas powered Scooters are making a comeback as the preferred mode of transportation.
No longer are they just for kids. Gas powered scooters are rapidly taking over as the preferred method of transportation to work and school. They are economical, can maneuver through tight spaces and with a gas scooter, you can take short-cuts that an automobile can not.
Gas powered scooters are also known as Mopeds which is a two-wheeled (normally) low powered vehicle. In most states its small size and low power output allow it to escape many of the licensing, insurance, and driver restrictions placed on motorcycles. However, be careful of the true description of moped.
a. A moped is traditionally defined as a motorized 2 wheel vehicle that is part human and part motor driven. A moped has pedals so that it can be propelled by human power. As you can see, gas powered scooters do not fit most states definition of moped.
Don’t fret though, a gas scooter used properly will not get you into any trouble in most places. If used responsibly and traffic laws are obeyed, most law enforcement won’t touch you.
Gas scooters were first introduced in the mid 1950’s. The first design was little more than a bicycle with an engine mounted on it, it was called a cyclemotor. The cylcemotor can still be seen on the road these days in the form of electric bikes.
One reason some people have a gas scooter is to circumvent loosing a driver’s license. Many states don’t require a driver to have an operator’s license if they are over eighteen years of age, sixteen in some states. They also don’t require insurance and registration.
Gas powered scooters have several advantage that should be noted.
a. No parking spots required. Some gas powered scooters can fold down for easy storage right in your office, or you can tie it up at the door with the bicycles right in front of the buildings door or on the sidewalk.
b. A gas powered scooter is faster than the average electric scooter. They can travel at speeds up to thirty-five miles an hour.
c. Gas powered scooters can maneuver rather well - A gas powered scooter is a great way to move through traffic. They dart in and out between cars, especially gridlocked traffic. Imagine sleeping in an extra twenty-thirty minutes. With the time you save avoiding traffic, you can afford to. how smart are you?
d. Gas scooters have very cool body styles; some gas powered scooters look more like miniature motorcycles than scooters.
e. Gas scooters save tons of money - While the cost of gassing up gas powered scooters might seem expensive compared to the low cost of running an electric scooter, the mileage they get quickly makes up for the gallon of gas they require.
f. Maintenance is a breeze- A Gas scooter is easy to maintain. With a basic grasp of tools and a decent book about mechanics most people are able to maintain their gas powered scooters in their own garage.
The best thing about a gas scooter is the freedom to literally go just about anywhere. While you ride your scooter along the trail or the beach, you can go more places than most automobiles. Hop on your new gas scooter and get ready for a new adventure. Take a minute and smell the roses or take in the sights like never before. What more could you ask for?
