4S will give you more than 45V on each side when fully charged. Fully charged that pack should be reading ~16.8V per cluster which would be ~50.4V per half or 100.8V per battery. I would be concerned about voltage ratings on PCB components (capacitors, voltage regulators, etc.) inside the Segway as they are likely not rated for that type of voltage.

The Segway will not run on just power. It must have communication with the BMS in order to operate.
