Does the Northwind Commuter 5 come with a charger, how long does charging take, and is there a faster charger?

Included charger: The Commuter 5 comes with a 2 amp charger in the box.

Charge time with the included charger (from completely empty):

• 14 Ah battery: about 6 to 7 hours

• 20 Ah battery: about 8 to 9 hours

Most riders don't run the battery fully empty, so typical charges are shorter.

Faster charger: A 4 amp fast charger (part NW-CHG-4A) fits the Commuter 5. It is sold separately. It roughly halves the full charge time, and it reaches 80 percent in about two-thirds of the normal time.
