once you get the second battery, do you think you will need more than one charge a day?

Just plug her in at night and don't worry about charge time. I assume the charger shuts itself off when complete?

What the heck is a kilometer?

I will not need to recharge more than once a day if I just go to work with it. I go to work (2 km) than come back home for lunch (2 km) then after lunch I go downtown for the second part of my shift (6 km) and when I'm all done I go home from downtown (6 km). I probably could go three days before recharging. But I don't just go to work, I work evenings which gives me time in the morning to run errands or just ride around for fun. If I do that, I'll just have to keep in mind that I need to keep enough charge in the batteries for the 22 km needed for my work. One kilometer is 0.6213712 mile.

Don't. SLA's develop sulfate if below a full charge. You want to keep them 100% charged as much as possible. If you forget a night it's not the end of the world, but definitely charge it the next night. I've been maintaining SLA's for 9 years in my wheelchairs

Is it an onboard charger? Can you plug in while at work?

It's not an onboard charger. And yes I prefer to recharge every day once I'm done with the scooter. Actually, as soon as I get it back in the garage, I always recharge it even if I just went out for 5 minutes.
