Can I use a different battery charger?

You should use the charger supplied with your power chair. It is the safest, most efficient tool to charge the batteries. We do not recommend using other types of chargers (e.g., an automotive battery charger).

NOTE: Your power chair’s charger will not operate after the batteries have been discharged to nearly zero voltage. If this happens, call your authorized Pride Provider for assistance.

How often must I charge the batteries?

Many factors come into play when deciding how often to charge the batteries. You may use your power chair all day on a daily basis, or you may not use it for weeks at a time.

!Daily Use

If you use your power chair on a daily basis, charge the batteries as soon as you are finished using your power chair. Your power chair will be ready each morning to give you a full day’s service. We recommend that you charge the batteries 8 to 14 hours after daily use.

!Infrequent Use

If you use your power chair infrequently (once a week or less), you should charge it at least once per week for 12 to 14 hours.

NOTE: Keep the batteries fully charged and avoid deeply discharging the batteries. Do not charge the batteries for more than 24 hours.

How can I get maximum range or distance per charge?

Rarely do you have an ideal driving situation such as smooth, flat, hard terrain with no hills or curves. More often you are presented with hills, sidewalk cracks, uneven and loosely packed surfaces, and curves. All of these factors affect the distance or running time per battery charge. Below are a few suggestions for obtaining the maximum range per charge:

!Always charge the batteries fully prior to your trip.

!Plan your trip in advance to avoid inclines if possible.

!Limit the baggage weight to essential items.

!Try to maintain an even speed and avoid stop-and-go driving.

What type of battery should I use?

We recommend deep-cycle batteries that are sealed and maintenance free. Both AGM and Gel-Cell are deep-cycle batteries and are similar in performance. Refer to the Specifications Table for more information regarding the batteries used with your power chair.

WARNING! Corrosive chemicals contained in batteries. Use only AGM or Gel-Cell batteries to reduce the risk of leakage or explosive conditions.

Why do my new batteries seem weak?

Deep-cycle batteries employ a different chemical technology than those used in car batteries, nickel-cadmium (nicads), or in other common battery types. Deep-cycle batteries are specifically designed to provide power, drain down their charge, and then accept a relatively quick recharge. Deep-cycle batteries should be charged as often as possible. They do not have a “memory” like nickel-cadmium batteries.
