This review is from: Razor Battery Charger for the e200, e300, PR200, Pocket Mod, Sports Mod, and Dirt Quad (Sports) You're looking at this battery recharger as a REPLACEMENT because the original began to arc at the connector-end to the Razor bike. As a replacement, it's acceptable since there are no alternatives. You'll avoid another replacement, however, IF YOU GRIP THE CONNECTOR ITSELF TO DISCONNECT from the Razor bike AND AVOID GRIPPING AND PULLING THE CORD.
The UL Subject 2238-type connector uses a CAST-METAL enclosure to give a FALSE IMPRESSION of ruggedness. Nonetheless, the connector's cord grip (strain-relief clamps) cannot accommodate the small cord size selected by the recharger's designer. The battery recharger's designer selected a 3-contact connector intended for a LARGER-DIAMETER 3-conductor cord instead of the 2-conductor cord actually used. (The third contact is unused. In cast-metal connectors, none could be found in a 2-contact connector as a component.

This review is from: Razor Battery Charger for the e200, e300, PR200, Pocket Mod, Sports Mod, and Dirt Quad (Sports) Debated weather to buy this for my 6 year old daughter. She really wanted one of the battery operated jeeps, but I just couldn't see spending that kind of money and have her grow out of it. This scooter ended up being perfect for her! She is an active, outgoing, and pretty daring little girl though. She got right on and rode it great! I'm sooooo glad I didn't go with the battery jeep! She will be able to ride this for years. We have had it for about 3 months and so far its ran great and had no problems. It was also half the cost of a battery jeep! It says like 12 and over but don't be too scared to get it for younger girls. My 10 year old rides it just fine too. Just don't let them loose on the streets! 3 of 3 people found the following review helpful: By This review is from: Razor Battery Charger for the e200, e300, PR200, Pocket Mod, Sports Mod, and Dirt Quad (Sports) This was our third replacement for my sons scooter. Razor factory was out of the genuine charger, so we went amazon. On our second and third chargers we reinforced the connection between the wire and the plug by wrapping it in electrical tape. Prongs fall out of plug and then the charger is rendered useless. Bad design from the get go. I would pay $50 for a design that would work and last... I have already spent over $90 for replacements thus far, but we're not quite ready to throw away a decent scooter because the chargers are junk! |
