45 Amp/hr Wheelchair Batteries

The 45 Amp/hr EV series is built to handle frequent deep-cycle discharges, making it exceptionally durable. With advanced active material, strong grids, and thick plates, it delivers reliable performance even under heavy loads. As a result, it becomes an excellent choice for electric vehicles, golf carts, and floor machines. Furthermore, it is ideal for forklifts, aerial lifts, robotics, marine vessels, RVs, wheelchair batteries, and a wide range of outdoor applications.

What they are

SLA stands for sealed lead-acid, and these batteries are a common choice for wheelchairs. They are durable, low maintenance, and can handle vibrations.

How they work

SLA batteries combine a sulfuric acid solution and lead plates to produce electricity. To enhance safety, they are sealed, which prevents electrolyte spills and reduces the risk of corrosion. Additionally, they rely on a recombination process that efficiently converts oxygen and hydrogen molecules back into a liquid state, ensuring consistent performance and minimizing maintenance needs.

Types of SLA batteries

Several types of SLA batteries are available, such as AGM (absorbed glass mat) and gel batteries. While AGM batteries excel in applications that demand high power density, gel batteries perform better in deep-cycle applications. By taking the time to understand their unique strengths, you can make a well-informed decision and select the right battery to meet your specific needs.

Charging

When charging a new SLA battery, always use the charger that comes with the wheelchair to ensure compatibility. Next, set the charger to the correct battery type to avoid potential damage. Additionally, monitor the charging process carefully to prevent overcharging, which can reduce the battery’s lifespan.

Storage

To extend the battery’s life, store the wheelchair in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and high humidity.
