Replacement packs are sold in two capacities that both fit: 15.6Ah (~786Wh) and 19.2Ah (~968Wh); original base RipCurrent shipped ~15Ah. Cells in aftermarket packs: DMEGC-26E or LG MH1. Connector detail human-verified by site editor (2-pin discharge, XLR charge) and corroborated by Juiced-specific 58.8V 3A 3-pin XLR charger listings. CAUTION: owners report early/Gen 1 RipCurrent units came with a 48V 13Ah pack — a 52V pack is not a safe assumption on older bikes. Gen 2 packs have a power button that must be switched on before inserting the battery into the frame. UPGRADE PATH: both aftermarket capacities fit either bike — 15.6Ah (~786Wh) and 19.2Ah (~968Wh). A base RipCurrent owner can fit the larger 19.2Ah pack for roughly 25% more range at a modest price difference; confirm your voltage (48V vs 52V) first.

Diagnose it first: repair or replace?

A dead battery isn't always a dead battery. Work through the symptoms before you buy.
