Electric Scooter Charging Stations in Mauritius

Post new topic

Hello Everyone!


Apologies in advance if I ask anything not too intellectual1f605.svg in this thread... I'm simply trying to figure out the following...


I was thinking about buying an Electric Scooter 1500 W which says it takes 8-10 hours to fully recharge. In the USA or UK I could easily purchase a home charging unit-- however in Mauritius, (being an island) I haven't been able to find such. Therefore I don't even know if this would be a wise purchase?

Are there any electric charging stations around Flic en Flac or nearby? And if so, would I be able to just leave my scooter charge for 8-10 hours without issue? (Seems like a long time).


Does anyone know of a service that would install a charging station at an apartment (with landlord's approval of course)?


This all being said, I was only looking into the electric scooters because of their upfront affordability compared to petrol scooters. If anyone knows where I can get a good condition petrol scooter for under 1K USD then please let me know. I just need something whilst getting my bearings and eventually will purchase a car.


Thank you!,

Virginie

Hello Virginie,


Welcome on board !


There are stations to recharge your scooter ( I think there might be 21 of them).  Find them on this website : https://www.electromaps.com/fr/stations … ge/maurice

Thank you so much Bhavna😊 Apparently there’s a way to easily recharge the scooter (moped) battery at home too? I need to verify this though as I’m not sure. Really appreciate your reply🙏

@VeniaV Most people recharge their electric scooters at home indeed. It can take a little longer.
