There are only 2 types I've seen one has 3 wire's 1 ground 1 hot 1 to plug wire. The other is the one I told you about I do have both, my finding is they are about the same as far as my rpms read outs. But the one wired right to battery should not need service like the one with battery inside once its dead throw it away.

The cheap ones used to be throw away models.....but now come with a replaceable, watch type battery. I've had one of the non serviceable varities on my scoot since July 2012...still works fine. A few months ago I purchased another that looks identical to the first, but has a replaceable battery. Cost was $8 and change...delivered.
