Batteries & Battery Charging
Batteries
The Shoprider Jiffy Powerchair is designed to operate on two 12
volt/12Ah sealed lead acid or gel type maintenance free batteries. For
easy handling, the batteries are contained within a battery-pack. The
life of the batteries may be affected by temperature, terrain, weight of
user, and care of batteries. The battery gauge (Refer to Figure 2) is a
guide on the remaining charge of the batteries.
The active user will need to charge the batteries after using
approximately more than 30% of battery capacity. As an inactive
user, only using from once a week to every other day, the recharge
point would be at 50% of discharge (Refer to Figure 8). For extended
battery life, it is highly recommended that these guidelines be
followed.
Keeping the batteries charged will extend the life of the batteries
Batteries should be kept fully charged at all times. They must not be
left in a discharged state if the unit is not being used for some time or
the “charging space” within the batteries will be lost and can never be
regained. The batteries should be checked once a month and kept
charged as needed.
