🔋 Understanding Lithium Battery Watt Hours
One of the key factors in airline approval is the scooter’s battery size, measured in watt hours (Wh). To check if a lithium battery meets FAA requirements (under 300 Wh), you can calculate watt hours by multiplying voltage (V) by amp hours (Ah):
Watt Hours (Wh) = Voltage (V) × Amp Hours (Ah)
Example:
The high-capacity lithium battery has:
-
Voltage: 25.2 V
-
Amp Hour: 10.05 Ah
-
Calculation: 25.2 × 10.05 = 253.26 Wh
This means it falls well under the 300 Wh airline limit.

-
Remove lithium batteries if required, and keep them in carry-on luggage.
