Firstly, it is important to use the same manufacturer and same type of battery (do not mix and match because one is on a specific).

It is recommended that daily mobility scooter owners use the Lithium Ion battery or Gel battery because they offer exceptional performance and offer more cycles than SLA or AGM. They may be more expensive than SLAs and AGMs but they are worth the investment since they save money over the long term on replacements and maintenance.

Be careful on the roads.
Although they are driven at a much lower speed than cars however, mobility scooters are considered motor vehicles and must abide by the road and pavement laws. For instance class 2 scooters should be restricted to 4 mph when on the pavements and should have the right to use the right of way over pedestrians. Class 3 invalid carriages, on the other hand, are able to be driven on the roads, but they have the speed limit of 8 mph. To be road legal, they also need to be registered with the Driver and Vehicle Licensing Agency.
It is crucial to be extra careful when driving a scooter particularly when crossing the street or changing from the road to the pavement. It is crucial to ensure pedestrians see you even when visibility is low. Wearing a fluorescent vest, or keeping your lights on when coming towards pedestrian crossings can help. If you're not sure of the rules and regulations that apply to your scooter, it is worth looking into third insurance for third parties. This will cover you in the case of an accident, or if your scooter gets stolen.
If you decide to use your scooter on the roads, it's recommended to stay on roads and routes that you are familiar with. This is particularly important in winter, when bad weather may make the road more dangerous for cars and scooters alike. It is also recommended to avoid driving a scooter on roads with ice, since this can cause damage to your wheels as well as the underneath of your vehicle.
A scooter can be lifesaving for people who have mobility issues, but it's essential to observe the rules of the road and road etiquette to keep yourself and other scooter users safe.
