The batteries on the rent-a-scooters really aren't worth a damn and the scooters are expendable/throw away tech. The scooters get thrown into rivers and bodies of water constantly creating an environmental hazard.

The batteries are the only thing of value on the rental scooters. A 48v 20ah battery goes for $250. I would pay $20 for each one.

I could see $20 each but that's still a decent crapshoot on getting one that's not been abused. I've never looked into but can they easily be thrown into a recycle bin at a hardware store like cordless tool batteries?

Like most "green" ideas of the left, they create more pollution, not less.
