The battery pack of the iZip Tricruiser (3 SLA 12 volt 12ah) is powerful enough to go good distance per charge. But when doing extra trips during the day, or extra long trips, it's good to carry a second one.
The SLA batteries in general does wear down pretty quickly (and that's why only 6 months warranty from the OEM). So the unfortunately side of this is may have to replace the pack as soon as every 9 to 12 months. The Tricruiser I ordered for my father in law lasted 10 months before battery pack died (verified by a local authorized dealer). I an in the midst of try to replace the SLA batteries myself (have to unsolder the leads), but in the meantime getting a new battery pack is prude either as a new primary battery, or a spare when I get the first pack's battery replaced.
