When it comes to getting replacement batteries for your Pride Mobility Go-Go Folding S19, the AJC-brand replacement is definitely an option to consider. One of the most clear reasons is the cost. To purchase a pair of replacement batteries from Pride Mobility, you will end up spending around $349. With the AJC-brand replacement, there are options under $50.
One thing to take into account with cost is actually a flaw with the Pride Mobility Go-Go Folding S19 scooter rather than the batteries. It requires two batteries to power it, meaning that when you purchase your AJC-brand replacements, you’ll need to buy a pair. While this is much easier with the batteries individually costing less than $50, it’s still something to consider.
Another huge advantage of the AJC-brand replacement is the higher amp hours. With each 12V replacement battery having 14 amp hours, you are going to have a higher amount of charge stored. When you rely on your scooter for getting around and living your every-day life, the extra charge can mean running that last errand or not.
The size of the battery is comparable to the Pride Mobility brand batteries, and unfortunately that includes the weight. At 8.8 pounds, it isn’t something that will go unnoticed. With your Pride Mobility Go-Go Foldable S19 scooter requiring two batteries, that’s almost 18 pounds of just battery weight. However, the AJC-brand replacement isn’t obviously heavier than the Pride Mobility brand.
Something of note is that the AJC-brand replacement battery for the Pride Mobility Go-Go Foldable S19 scooter is a sealed lead acid battery cell, meaning it should be rechargeable, though that isn’t made clear. More investigation will need to be made to known whether these are rechargeable or not. Keep in mind, all sealed lead acid batteries should be rechargeable. All around, the AJC-brand replacement is a great option for Pride Mobility Go-Go Foldable S19 scooter users. It’s much better than spending hundreds of dollars and it’s all-around comparable to the name-brand replacement.
