What type of battery does the Haojue scooter use?
3 Answers
Haojue scooter comes with a standard 12-volt 6-ampere-hour battery, i.e., 12V6AH. Below is relevant information: Scooter motorcycles: Scooter motorcycles mostly feature continuously variable transmission (CVT) with automatic clutch, similar to Mullan-style electric vehicles. They lack gear design—simply twist the throttle to move and release it to gradually decelerate until stopping. Additionally, scooter wheels are smaller than those on other motorcycles. Transmission system: The transmission system predominantly uses belt drive, commonly referred to as "step-through" or "women's" motorcycles. The term "scooter" refers to the wide footboard between the seat and handlebars, allowing riders to place their feet comfortably as if sitting on a chair, unlike straddle-style motorcycles.
Most Haojue scooter motorcycles use 12V maintenance-free lead-acid batteries, with the most common model being the YTX7L-BS specification. My own 125cc YuZhan model, when opened up, revealed a 7Ah capacity battery, about the size of a palm. Battery capacities vary across different models—for instance, the UCR125 uses a 6Ah battery, while 150cc models might require a 9Ah one. Choosing a battery depends on the motorcycle's starting current requirements, and the factory-installed ones are usually well-matched. I remember last winter when the temperature dropped to minus ten degrees Celsius, my neighbor's motorcycle wouldn't start, but after replacing it with a Yuasa battery of the same model, it worked immediately. These maintenance-free batteries are worry-free, but you still need to check the voltage every two years or so. If the battery is severely discharged, it might be rendered useless.
I've been repairing motorcycles for over a decade, and more than 90% of Haojue scooters use 12V maintenance-free batteries. Common models include YUASA's YTX7L-BS or GS's GTX7L-BS, with capacities ranging between 6Ah-7Ah. There's a detail many people overlook: when installing a new battery, you must verify the dimensions. Last year, I encountered a situation where an aftermarket battery was slightly larger and wouldn't fit into the bottom casing when replacing a Suzuki UE125's battery. These gel batteries are particularly vulnerable to deep discharge. If the vehicle sits unused for two months, the battery will likely be completely drained. It's advisable to install a power cutoff switch or at least start the engine for twenty minutes each month to recharge.
