2 Batteries needed for Gen 1 Segway, Model #I167

jluoma87 · 10-16-2020, 11:07 AM

Hello! I am in quick need of 2 Batteries for Gen 1 Segway, Model # I167, Lithium Ion 73.6 VDC (volts direct current).

I have two that are dead, and I've purchased a rebuild service but it is going to take longer than I can budget right now, so if anyone knows where I might be able to purchase full charged, please let me know!

Picture of the battery attached.

You can just buy them on eBay. But for two new ones you’re looking at $1500+.

I didn’t you could run lithium on the 167 I was told it was the 180 or newer in the gen1?

The i167 originally only supported NiMH batteries.

The Segway factory offered a free software upgrade afterwards.
That fixed some bugs, and also supported the newer Li-ion batteries.

Most i167 machines were upgraded.

When upgraded there are 2 ways to identify it.

1
The dealer should have affixed a small FlyGuy logo sticker on the chassis.

2
The Power off, Power on face logo changed a bit.
I think it was called Elvis, because it had sideburns.

I have plenty of bad ones and you can get them rebuilt better than original for around 750 a pair
