Anyone heard about this new battery from DeWalt:
Could potentially extend quite a bit the range of the Tech & Travel Scooters.
Will they be compatible with the scooter ?

I saw discussion about it. On the FB group, maybe? IIRC, it is bigger and heavier than the current 12Ah. So, it really isn't useable in a BlackTip.

My understanding is they physically won't fit in the hole. Even the 9Ah can be a bit tricky to install. More than one person has left a blood stain trying to install the 9 Ah batteries.
The 9 Ah and 12 Ah are the same size/weight. They are a tight fit but they go in. The 15 Ah is something like 2 lbs. heavier per battery, and I'm almost certain it was verified that it was bigger.
My DIY batteries built on 21700’s are both more powerful and lighter then the dewalts so have to stock wheel weights to the batteries to match the original weight. But they work great

Interesting. It looked from the website that they were "more compact". Though not surprised by the weight difference 
@cosmosaure any update about this? what did you make with the blue wire?
