The batteries have been holding up just fine. I will say this though, the gears, because they are made of plastic, the one on the driver side has worn out. I just got to replacing it for about $15.
@@patrickhanlon1706 I have to say, the gears keep wearing out on this thing. Heres the link to the one I bought on amazon: amzn.to/2yRqaR9 I ordered some other ones from ebay but I am yet to receive them. My plan is to try and replace the plastic gears with metal ones so that it would last a lot longer.
I wired up the charger as you did, it worked fine with one 12v battery but once I wired the other battery up the light stays green as if the battery’s are still fully charged
@@amalthompson3227 I connected the batteries in parallel with the new charger and it worked but that means having to take out one of the seats, changing the terminals, charging and putting everything back. I'm trying to figure out an easier way.
Can you share the link in the comments for the battery and the charger please
have you tried the high gear on 12v?
I ran into the same issue! I was going to do three 6-volt batteries but maybe I’ll do two 12-volts as well. How has the longevity been?

@@Miamig37 where did you get the replacement gears from? I can only find the power wheels and prego replacement gears.

Did the charger that you modded work after running the batteries in series?
Actually it just crapped out on me. I'm trying out another one as we speak.
Are you having issues charging the batteries?

Were you able to charge the batteries when they were wired in series for 24volts with the charger?
