The NEW 36V Electric Scooter Battery (10S2P 18650 Lithium Pack) is designed for City Coco scooters, offering extended range, faster charging, and enhanced durability. Its 10S2P configuration balances voltage and capacity, while the built-in BMS ensures safety. Compatible with most City Coco models, this battery provides 42V output for optimal performance in urban commuting scenarios.

How Does the 10S2P Configuration Enhance Battery Performance?
The 10S2P configuration combines 10 cells in series (36V nominal) and 2 in parallel, delivering stable voltage and increased capacity (typically 4,000–5,000mAh). This setup optimizes energy density, reduces voltage sag during acceleration, and supports longer rides (up to 40-50km per charge) while maintaining compact dimensions for seamless integration into City Coco frames.
What Safety Features Are Integrated into the Battery Design?
The battery features a multi-protection BMS with overcharge, over-discharge, short-circuit, and temperature control mechanisms. Cell-level fusing prevents thermal runaway, while IP54-rated casing resists water and dust ingress. These safeguards comply with UN38.3 transportation standards, ensuring reliability in diverse weather conditions and reducing fire risks associated with lithium-ion batteries.
Advanced temperature sensors monitor individual cell groups every 0.5 seconds, automatically throttling power output if internal temperatures exceed 60°C (140°F). The dual-layer casing design incorporates flame-retardant ABS plastic exterior and shock-absorbing silicone inner lining, surviving 1.5m drop tests without damage. Real-world testing shows these protections prevent 92% of common battery failures reported in urban scooter use, particularly important when navigating potholes or wet streets.

Why Choose Lithium-Ion Over Traditional Lead-Acid Batteries?
Lithium-ion batteries offer 3x higher energy density, 70% lighter weight, and 5x faster charging than lead-acid alternatives. They maintain consistent voltage output throughout discharge cycles, avoiding the “power drop” effect. With 1,000+ charge cycles (vs. 300-500 for lead-acid), lithium packs provide 3-5 years of daily use, reducing long-term replacement costs.
| Feature | Lithium-Ion | Lead-Acid |
|---|---|---|
| Weight (36V 20Ah) | 4.8kg | 16kg |
| Charge Time | 4-5 hours | 8-10 hours |
| Cycle Life | 1,200 cycles | 400 cycles |
How to Properly Install the Battery in a City Coco Scooter?
1. Disconnect the old battery and remove mounting brackets
2. Align the new battery’s polarity (red/+ to red, black/- to black)
3. Secure with anti-vibration brackets and silicone spacers
4. Test voltage with a multimeter (41-42.5V when fully charged)
5. Calibrate the scooter’s battery meter through 3 full charge-discharge cycles
What Maintenance Practices Extend Battery Lifespan?
• Avoid deep discharges below 30V
• Store at 50% charge in 15-25°C environments
• Clean terminals monthly with isopropyl alcohol
• Balance-charge every 15 cycles using a 42V Li-ion charger
• Replace cells showing >20% capacity variance during annual diagnostics
Seasonal maintenance proves crucial – in winter, allow batteries to reach 10°C before charging to prevent lithium plating. Summer users should avoid charging immediately after high-speed rides when cells are above 40°C. Data logs show proper storage practices alone can extend cycle life by 18-22%. Using a smart charger that automatically switches to trickle mode after reaching 42V helps prevent overcharging degradation.
Can This Battery Be Used with Other Electric Vehicles?
While designed for City Coco scooters, the 36V/42V system works with any 36V e-bike/scooter using XT60 connectors. Verify controller compatibility (30-45V input range required). Not suitable for 48V systems. Custom mounting adapters may be needed for non-Coco models. Always consult vehicle specifications before cross-installation.
Expert Views
“Modern 18650 cells like Samsung 35E or LG MJ1 used in these packs achieve 99.5% coulombic efficiency. The 10S2P topology allows 20A continuous discharge – perfect for stop-start urban riding. We’re seeing cycle life exceed 1,200 charges when maintained properly, making these packs a sustainable urban mobility solution.”
