Hi all, back again.
Now its official. I REALLY need new batteries for my ElecTrec (My commute to work is 7 miles, either flat or gentle down-hill most of the way, with a few gentle ups. My battery is in the red when I get to work. Coming home, the controller has cut out on me, which its programed to do @ 80% discharge). I've done a little poking on the net, and most prices seem to be around $120-150 the pair, but there seem to be a few for $40-45 each (so $80-90 the pair). They all seem to be chinese made. Does anyone have a specifiec name to look for? Do I just cough up the bucks and get the OEM set from Electrik motion? Any Ideas?
