Smart energy management of the Segway Ninebot Max G3, F3/F3 Pro and GT3 External Battery

Energy management between the internal and external batteries is fully automatic. When the scooter is parked and the external battery is above 20 percent, it recharges the internal battery to keep it at a healthy level. If the internal battery drops below 30 percent, the system prioritizes its recharge to prevent unexpected shutdowns.

While riding, the external battery is used first. When higher power is required, both batteries work together seamlessly to maintain performance.

During charging, the internal battery is charged first, followed by the external battery, as long as it is properly installed.
