What type of battery should I use?
We recommend a supplied Lithium-Ion battery that is sealed and maintenance-free. Refer to the
specifications table for more information regarding the battery used with your power chair.
WARNING! Corrosive chemicals contained in batteries. Use only Lithium-Ion batteries to
reduce the risk of leakage or explosive conditions.
Why does my new battery seem weak?
Like nickel-cadmium batteries, Lithium-Ion batteries have a “memory” effect. Lithium-Ion batteries are
specifically designed to provide power, drain down their charge, and then accept a relatively quick
recharge. If the batteries are continually recharged after only being partially discharged, they lose their
ability to hold a full charge.
