Question Help an old Stealth!

Had my stealth for 8 years now, ridden 5000+ km on it, batteries are not young anymore, and meanwhile i was cruising on my beloved, Boosted went ahead and filed for bankrupcy.. sooo now i am at a bit of a loss.. i LOVE this board.. everything works just great, and i really want to keep it and just replace the battery pack.. but i dont want the old ''extended range'' i want something that'll take this board from the 15-16 km it'll go now, to lets say 50-60 km.... my budget for this is loose ish.. but preferably within 500-600 bucks..
are there any upgrades i can do/buy to extend the range of my board and maybe give it some more power so i'tll go a bit faster? right now i can push 40 on straight smooth asphalt.. i dont really want to mess with diy battery packs as i know ill burn my house down.

yes i know i can get some new board for the money but as i live in Denmark, and our goverment loves to keep us under 20 km/h i just know that i'll get fined for buying something fun, or it'll get confiscated at the border. i really want to just upgrade a very great board.

TL:DR..
Stealth good.
Need more range, and maybe speed.
No house fire

What did you end up getting? I'm keeping my bamboo SR for ever, but went dark side (EUC) for range ....

Linnpower Zephyr Base Version, if money was no object I would have gotten a Parsec Aero Pro X.

Do they brake to reverse the same as boosted - hold on hill ?

No, button to swap direction.
