scooter battery
It's about that time for some new scooter batteries. Looking for a ss uv-26. Purchased the last set direct from submerge, they match up a pair of Genesis (G26ep) 12v, 26ah batteries. Have looked online and found batteries at about $175 ea from one source but was wondering if anyone else has a better source for new Genesis batteries or if there were any other quality replacement batteries at a good price point. Thanks. Bill

They should run about $120-125 from here-

email wayne@tnrbattery.com for a price quote. I know litehedded, pfcaj, majorrestriction, and myself have all purchased dpv batteries from him, with no complaints.
and you can go in and pick out any batteries you want. you can match them by weight/resting voltage/color/smell/anything you want.
assuming you're local and can get over there. I bet they would do it for you if you talked them through it over the phone.
I have purchased there before as well (twice) but had one battery drop off pretty quick. Last time i bought a set from submerge. Thanks, will give them another shot. Bill

Bill I know you can save money buying elsewhere ........or do you? I know in the past Rodney & Suzie culled through the batteries they purchased and rejected any that were not up to their standards. What you end up with are a set of batteries that that are well matched giving you the best performance and life.

What me worry?
Last time I got UV-26 batteries, Suzie told me to get them from their source, somewhere in NC.
when it comes time for me to buy extra betteries for my 26, I will be buying them from submerge. They won me over with customer service and I am happy to spend the extra money
I get mine from Edd.
Whoever said money can't buy love never bought a puppy.
Edd gets his from Rodney and Suzie.

I've bought SLA's from TnR for my Tekna before, nice guys, but they indicated to me that they were not willing to discount any, even though they offered free shipping and I was picking them up in person.
I'm thinking about buying new batteries for my 26 sometime in the next year, but decided to wait until I have a job
