Any help Is appreciated I've included pics it seems the batteries are ran in parallel also.

Some more info get some 3S lipos and hook them up in parallel then get a LV buzzer and hook that up also or get a small volt meter and use that as a fuel gauge. That will reduce the voltage but adds more amps so it should not be that much diffrent. I did this to my electric drill and the damn thing is way more powerful then it was when it was new

Try the Power Wheels 12V quick charger, it's like $45 bucks and should get your scooter going in 2-3 hrs instead of 12.

where its being used on your daughter's scooter, i would go this route and not put lipo packs in it.
its one thing if you over-discharge a lipo and it goes up in flames in your r/c car 50 feet away from you...... another if it goes up in flames while your child is riding it.

Yeh frddy I was thinking the same thing I don't think that charger will work since the batteries are ran in series and that makes it 24v not 12v

You can try A123 cells if you want to charge fast and stay safe :D
