Getting the most from your Mobility
Batteries
Under normal everyday
use, most people need to charge their batteries every night. If the
wheelchair is used only occasionally, the batteries need to be charged every 2
weeks and should be charged after every day use.
Battery failure is the
most frequent reason for electric wheelchairs to stop working or to start acting
erratically. Taking proper care of batteries is very important.
Wheelchair batteries are different from car batteries. A wheelchair
battery is charged once a day and supplies large amounts of electricity while it
is running. Although manufacturers provide their own durability numbers,
most electric wheelchair batteries last 1 good year - up to 2 years when
properly maintained. The life of a battery is very dependent on how
heavily it was used.
DO and DO NOT'S
from our experience!
Always use the charger
supplied with your wheelchair. Make sure it is set to the proper battery
type and proper incoming voltage (US/EU 110/220V).
If you need to store your
wheelchair for a long period of time, it is best to charge your batteries at
least twice per month.
New batteries require
conditioning. For the first 6 to 10 charge/discharge cycles, do not
heavily discharge the batteries.
Do not use automotive
(car) battery chargers.
Do not excessively
discharge the batteries.
Do not top off with
frequent charges, as this is hard on the batteries.
Whenever you plug in the
charger, always check that the battery is charging, as indicated by a meter or
light. The charger plug is subject to a lot of stress, so be sure that the
cord and plug are in good condition.
Batteries and the
Weather
Extensive exposure to
cold/hot temperatures will severely cut the capacity of your batteries and may
even damage them. Some battery types cannot be recharged outside the
nominal temperature
range.
