You the man 👍🏼 you explain it way better then everyone else on KZread

I know you made this a while ago, but we just discovered this. We got the mighty max batteries as you suggested. Your patience and detailed instructions were dead on! We did this on an MX650 model. It was a lot tougher and it took us a little longer, but it worked out and to see "the light come on" in my daughter's eyes was well worth it! To anyone that watches, follow his directions and r-wind many times if you have to...but stick to it, it will work for you just as it did for us. I can say that if I must do this again, it will go much quicker. I thumbs upped and subscribed. Thanks again!

Our new batteries are getting delivered tomorrow and I am going to follow the instructions just like you did. I hope it works. Thanks for the great video.

Well done. Perfect instructions. All the right details. Unbolting razor’s screws was the hardest part. Im not a “fixer” and I got it done. Thanks

I just finished my kids 650 following your video and the results were perfect. We tried to save money and get a used one, but the batteries would not keep the charge. I didn’t take off the seat, but I literally ordered everything from your links and you saved my investment. Thank you!

Thank you sir, this was extremely useful. Your patience shows us you're a dad!

Thank you for the video. Just changed out my batteries and this video really helped. It took me 2 hours because of how hard it is to get to a couple of the screws but it worked great. Thanks again

Thank you so much. I hadn’t seen your video before I cut my batteries out and had my first time soldering them back in. I will definitely use the clips next time.

Loving the content so far!

Thank you for this! New Sub. Bought this same bike for my 5 year old granddaughter. She loves it. After 3 weeks, the bike just died but showed "full battery" green light. Had to call Razor support, take the bike apart to fix it. Made a great memory with my Granddaughters helping me put the bike back together. It wasn't easy 😛. But I will keep this Vid in mind when the battery starts to fail. Thanks again.

Thanks for making this for all of us dad's attempting to be heroes....!

Very helpful! Thanks for the video

Excellent excellent instructional video. Thanks!

Excellent video. Thank you so much!

Great explanation, I’d say the hardest part of the whole thing was the battery bracket screws with the Allen key and all. But I do have one concern, I noticed that the mileage on one charge has dropped quite a bit than how it was when I first purchased the bike. Just wondering if anybody else has the same issue?

How do you troubleshoot to make sure that it is the batteries? Our Bike doesn’t even have the LEDs come on at all. No lights, no clicks no led at the throttle or on the power switch…. The charger light comes on and shows green (charges overnight) and still no lights whatsoever appear on the bike. Is that a battery issue or another type of issue? We checked all three fuses as per your guidance and they are all good. Please help…

you kick ass good job. learned plenty.

Hey body just watching your video just bought the batteries 🔋 Just quick question how did you know that that battery was the problem my bike has little click when I push the troaddlor but I think it doesn’t have enough power that’s why I’m getting new batteries

Hi, I watched your video to replace my batteries. I put in brand new batteries, the bike worked. Now they won't charge. Any idea why? I also replaced the charging port.

So I'm getting ready to build my razor and I want to do the 72 volt system but I'm going to weld a tray right underneath the seat but above the back tire to hold two of those batteries and then I'm going to have four batteries where the batteries would normally go to make 72 volts are you aware of anyone trying this I know it's going to be heavy but I don't have the money for a lipo battery right now and I know I'm not going to go as far any reason why this wouldn't work that you can think of?

Thank you I just got mine going I thought you had to sotter them you’re the man

Is the battery in the link compatible with the mx350

Not 100% sure what that stuff is on the terminals, but if it is hot glue or similar, you could soak the glue in higher percentage rubbing alcohol, and it will soften up enough to just peel it away. If they happen to fit, might save you the trouble of clipping and crimping.

I tried to just remove the glue. Turns out the glue is only holding down the black insulation at the ends. The wires are soldered to the battery terminals underneath.

Great video for us non electrical men. Thanks a ton. You took all the fear out of this project.

Plugs only fit one way. No need to mark with tape. Great video.. Those Mighty Max batteries are great. We also used them in a electric wheelchair. Better than originals. Personally I do not like crimping wires. They tend to pull out sometime. Soldering is much better connection. You will see in time how you get rot and dirt in your crimp connections

How long can you ride a razor 650 before it runs out of battery

What's the top speed on the new battery 🔋?

Good job dude!

why do you have to cut off the connectors? won't they just slide off to accept new batteries? Surely razor doesn't expect you to have do to this if you buy their replacement batteries.

I did it exactly as described and with the same replacement batteries off of Amazon. It worked great right away. For some reason the batteries won’t charge all the way despite the charger showing a green light stating ok charge. Any ideas/recommendation for why it may not be charging properly? Thanks and great video!

@Chadman03elantra

2 жыл бұрын

Should be no problem. If you went to 15ah batteries over the stock 12ah, it just means the battery will supply current longer. It does not actually supply a higher current. May take a bit longer to charge, that's all.

I installed my new batteries and when I turned the on button to on, the back tire started spinning like I had the throttle pulled to max speed. I don’t know if the throttle is bad, or that silver box (looks like a mini car amp for stereo) that the throttle runs into

I bought these batteries and did exactly what you did and made sure everything was wired perfectly but when I went to turn it on nothing happened.

This is NO commentary on this video - as it was helpful - in and of itself. But, this was one of the most infuriating projects that I have done in a long time. Those Allen key screws that hold down the battery brackets, especially the bottom ones, took me literally hours. Plan for minimum 3 hours for this project if you have big hands or fingers. Nearly impossible. Painstakingly awful. If you have a bad temper, prepare to be tempted to throw tools. 😅

Oil that poor chain!
