This scooter is killing me. Keeps cutting off, then battery is totally dead

Tao Tao Lancer 150

I've had this problem after the first time I rode it. It slowly died and cut off on my way to work. Had a friend give me a jump. Partly made it to work. Got another jump then made it work. Eventually it died. Battery wouldn't even supply enough power to turn over. Recharged battery, noticed turn signals would work sporadically.

Is it a bad battery, stator, voltage regulator or something else? I'm going to buy a new battery. If it dies and then there is no power to even turn over I'm sure it's an electrical issue, but where? Did valve adjustment, installed new high performance CDI, ignition coil and spark plug. Please help!

Definitely buying a high end scooter next time. Didn't realize I would have this much trouble.

I haven't been able to enjoy this --->
