Electric Scooter Repair and Customization

Here's a list of what I did to the scooter:

Replaced motor controller (24v)
Replaced and upgraded battery (24v 6.6Ah (old) -> 24v 10Ah (new)
Replaced controls and display
Replaced LED light switch cover
Painted Grey
Replaced grip tape (clear with some old stickers below)
Filed and sanded some plastic parts that were gouged

This is a scooter I found abandoned in the park near my house. I repaired and customized it. The full story is in the weblog under May 20, 2021.

Before and after pictures:

Before #1 - Taken from the web until I find my actual before pictures. It was white when I found it.

After #1 - The whole scooter.

After #2 - The new display was set into the existing LED light.

After #3 - The LED light switch cover was missing, probably that allowed water in to kill the battery. I'm adding a new plug for the charging port next.

WIP #1 - The old LED light and the new display got merged and epoxied into something that isn't amazing, but is much better than a display dangling down along the side where it makes a horrible noise as it rattles. I considered 3D printing a new piece that would do this a little sleeker, but I decided I didn't want to invest that much time into reinventing the LED light and case.
