How long does it take to charge ride-on toys? This is a question that many people have when they are looking at different ride-on toy options.
There are ride-ons for children, adults, and even pets, believe it or not?
It can be hard to know which one would be the best option for you or your child.
In this article, we'll go over how long each of these ride-on toys takes to charge so that you can make an informed decision about what charging method is right for you.
The length of time it takes to charge a kid's electric car battery depends on the voltage.
The very first time you charge a new battery, it will take longer than the next charge.
This is because the battery has to be conditioned and there will need to be more charging cycles before it reaches its peak performance level.
The ride-on toy batteries come in different voltages, so you should check which one your ride-on toy needs!
This article will provide the approximate values of charge. However, we strongly suggest that you read the instructions that come with the ride-on toy as some of them may vary.
To charge a 6-volt battery, it should be charged for 10 hours followed by regular charging of 6 hours.
For 12v batteries, the first charge should last for 10 hours with regular charging at 8-10 hours.
For 24v batteries, which are more efficient than their smaller cousins, 10 hours of charging (both the first and all subsequent charges) are enough.
As you can see, there's a theme here. The 10-hour charge is the average for the ride-on toy batteries.
6v Powered Toys: Initial charge 10 hours. Regular charge approximately 6 hours.
12v Powered Toys: Initial charge 10 hours. Regular charge approximately 10 hours.
24v Powered Toys: Initial charge 18 hours. Regular charge approximately 10 hours.
The length of time it takes a battery to charge also depends on how much power the car needs and what terrain it is driving on.
6v batteries will usually last 45-60 minutes depending on the power requirements of the installed motor. 12v batteries are very similar.
Some 24-volt battery-operated toys run for 1hr to 1hr 30mins (these times will vary depending on the terrain).
Most 24v vehicles use lower power 12v motors, which make them more energy-efficient and extend battery life.
The best way to maximize riding time is by investing in a spare battery or two and making sure that you keep all batteries charged at full capacity.
Problems occur when the battery isn't charged regularly or the ride-on toy is left out in extreme temperatures.
Since the vast majority of them are lead-acid batteries, which are sensitive to heat and cold, ride-on toys should be brought indoors when they're not in use.
A battery that is left out in the heat or cold temperatures will lose power very quickly because of the excessive temperature!
We recommend purchasing a spare ride-on toy battery to maximise ride time.
This is because the ride-on toys have a limited power supply and they will be depleted over time with frequent use.
A spare ride on toy battery can also enable you to recharge the other sooner than expected which means your child will be able to play for a longer period of time and ride more.
The best thing about ride-on toy batteries is that they are interchangeable, meaning you can buy any ride-on toy battery to replace the one in your ride-on toy with ease. If you're not sure how to do this, please check with the retailer you purchased the toy from.
A spare ride-on toy battery should be kept charged at all times so that it's ready when needed!
Yes, batteries should be conditioned to ensure peak performance.
The ride-on toy battery should be fully charged and then discharged completely before the next charge cycle (or a maximum of three discharge cycles).
This allows the ride-on toy battery to calibrate itself so that when it needs power, it will know how much is left in your ride-on toys' batteries.
This is a popular question, and the answer is simple: some ride-on toys will have a power meter to indicate when they need charging.
If it doesn't have a meter, then you should ride it until the ride-on toy starts to slow down. This is a good indication to charge the ride-on toy battery.
There's really no need to remove ride-on toy batteries after charging.
If ride-on toys are stored for a long period of time, then yes, we would encourage you to remove the battery. However, it's still important to charge the battery regularly to ensure ride-on toy performance.
Note: Always refer to the instruction booklet your ride on came with. This is because ride-on toys may vary in regards to time of charge etc.
Oftentimes there is no warranty on ride-on toy batteries.
Some of them will come with a warranty and those are usually for one year or less while others may have an extended warranty depending on where you purchase the ride-on toy battery from.
You should always check the specifications when buying ride-on toy batteries to ensure that there is coverage in case something goes wrong.
If you're not sure, contact the ride-on toy battery company to find out how they deal with complaints and their warranty coverage!
Thanks for taking the time to read this guide on ride-on toy battery time and how to make sure your ride-on is charged properly.
We hope that more parents will invest the time to read this and know how to charge ride-on toys.
This will ensure that your ride-on toy battery lasts a long time and maximise the ride time and also increase the enjoyment your child has with their new toy.!

Tips to help you get the most enjoyment out of your ride on toy battery:
- Charge the battery before first use, follow the instructions provided with your charger (not more than 24 hours). If you have a newer charger, there will be a green indicator light to indicate that the battery is fully charged
- Charge the battery as the vehicle shows low power, you will avoid damage to the battery
- Do not use the battery until the vehicle is has totally lost all power.
Draining the battery like this will cause permanent damage to the battery and significantly shorten it's useful life
- If you don’t use your vehicle for a long period of time or are planning to store it, charge the battery to full, then unplug the battery from the main wire harness of the vehicle. Do not leave the battery plugged in to the vehicle during storage. This drains and permanently damages the battery
- Remember to charge the battery at least once every three months
- After storing the vehicle, give the battery a full charge before first use
- Do not forget batteries during charging! Check them periodically. If you notice the battery getting hot, disconnect it right away

Before answering this question, it should be noted that lead-acid batteries do not have "memory effect". Any special type procedures "Discharge to the end - fully charge" is not required at the first charge. Recharge the battery and send the child to ride.
Please note that the battery must be recharged at intervals of six months during storage. If this rule was violated by the manufacturer or seller of the electric vehicle prior to sale, the battery may already have partially lost its capacity.
And how to properly charge during operation:
1. Cycling battery life measured in cycles charge-discharge. If the battery is completely discharged, it "will last", approximately, 200 cycles. When discharged by 30% - the amount cycles increases by 5-6 times. Therefore, it is reasonable to charge battery after every day of use.
2. Be sure to fully charge the battery before winter storage. If the battery was discharged, due to self-discharge, by spring, it can completely fail.
Use the original charger or, if it is lost/failed, replace it with one designed specifically for lead-acid batteries of this voltage and capacity. Better if the memory is automatic. In this case, it will be able to determine that the battery is already fully charged and will automatically switch to maintenance mode (self-discharge compensation).
Children's motorcycles (as well as children's cars) typically use 6 volt batteries with capacities of 4.5 Ah, 7 Ah and 12 Ah. Suitable chargers for these batteries are shown in the table:
| Battery voltage and capacity | Battery name and photo (example) | Suitable charger from our range |
| 6 V 4.5 Ah | FIAMM FG 10451 | ROBITON LAC6-600 |
| 6 V 7-9 Ah | DELTA HR 6-7 | Leoch LC-2300 |
| 6 V 12 Ah | LEOCH DJW6-12 | East 220-6-2 |
Please note!
The chargers shown in the example are designed specifically for charging batteries, but are not chargers for a children's motorcycle or car. Almost every manufacturer of children's motorcycles and cars uses a connector that is convenient for him, the manufacturer. Very often they are unique and are not sold on the Russian market.
The given chargers have either clamps for fastening to the battery terminals, or a mating part of the battery terminals of this type. They cannot be connected to a children's electric car. Accordingly, the battery for charging will have to be dismantled from the children's motorcycle and the charger connected to its terminals.
If it is necessary to replace the memory, you can determine the appropriate one from the data indicated on the battery itself: the front panel always indicates the charge voltage for cyclic use and the maximum charge current for that battery. Or you can navigate by this rule: the optimal charge current is 10-20% of the capacity. The maximum is 30%.
The charging time of the battery depends on the amperage of the charger. If it is 10-20% of the battery capacity, subject to the recommended charge voltage, a fully discharged battery should be charged in 10-12 hours. If the current is less, then the charge time increases inversely.

Buying a children's ATV or its adult counterpart is not just about being a rider. This technique requires special attention. As a rule, the owners of this motorcycle often do not pay enough attention to charging the battery, which can cause it to fail almost every season. Remember, if you charge your ATV battery correctly, it will last you many times longer.
To avoid premature battery failure and loss of battery capacity, follow these guidelines:
Always follow the connection diagram when installing the battery in the ATV. You need to start by connecting the positive terminal. Be careful not to reverse the polarity as this can cause both the fuse to blow and the battery to explode.
If the vehicle battery suddenly stops charging, there may be several reasons for this:
The first signs of regulator relay failure are when the ATV battery starts to drain too quickly. Diagnosis of such a breakdown is carried out by measuring the resistance with a voltmeter at the battery terminals. Repairing any electrical equipment of an ATV is a rather complicated process that a true professional should perform.
Often the best solution when a battery or regulator fails is to replace it with a new one.
It is much easier to prevent this kind of breakdown than to fix it later. That is why it is necessary to charge the battery of motor vehicles in strict accordance with the requirements of the manufacturer.
There are two ways to charge the child's ATV battery with the charger. The easiest of them is to connect the charger to the appropriate connector on the motorcycle. True, such a nest is not available on all models of ATVs. If there is no such connector, then the battery should be connected directly to the charger. The battery is charged as follows:
Lithium ATV batteries usually have a board that monitors the battery level.
But even in this case, it is strongly not recommended to charge the device longer than necessary.
Each ATV gel battery manufacturer provides detailed charging instructions. It is very important to choose the right charger with the ability to adjust the amperage in order to avoid overcharging the battery. On sale you can find specialized chargers for ATV gel batteries.
It is necessary to charge such a battery as follows:
