So I can only ride until the battery dies (I've figured out how many miles I can go on a full charge). So my hope is that I can ride longer on a bigger battery than a normal scooter battery.

If your headlight is on all the time it will drain the battery faster so you should disconnect it and refrain from running at night of course. Also refrain from using the electric start but remember kick starters are designed for emergency use so are kinda flimsy so their use should be limited.
Yes the tender is a charger and you would have to wait hours for a charge if your battery dies while out riding. Better to have a spare battery.
Repair your charging system soon, do not put it off. Just friendly advise.
