It's impossible to find a battery for Tomtoms at places like radio shack--it's an off-size. Your best bet is ebay--lots of them available there inexpensively. Or just google tomtom battery for other online retailers. Tomtom will replace them for you (matter of fact, I'm pretty sure it voids your warranty to try and replace them yourself), but they charge so much it's hardly worth it for the less expensive units like the One. It's easy to do yourself, but you need the right tool, a size 8 or 9 (I don't remember off hand which it is) torx bit screwdriver, which is itself a little hard to come by (try an auto parts store).

Placed new batteries on my mpv5, but batteries are not holding the charge. After charging all night they did not even last one hour. What else could the problem be?

The CTEK Multi vehicle battery charger can recharge a dead HP pavilion dv6000 battery in 30 minutes, which may be less time than you expect from using the vehicle. Importantly, the charger itself can be completely recharged from a power source for a night, which is ready for use the next morning.

Try to use scooter, clicking sound, then moves bout 4 inches. charged batteeries all night.

How old are the batteries? When you connect the charger, if the charger indicates the batteries are charged within a few minutes and the battery power does not last more than 1-2 hours or less, it may indicate that that the batteries will not take a charge anymore and need to be replaced.
If the battery indicator on the scooter says the batteries are charged but the scooter still will not move, make sure the freewheel lever is in the drive position.
If you continue to have issues, contact your sales person or the manufacturer to schedule a service call.
Good luck!

I have a pride go chair that is only one year old. I USE IT INSIDE MY HOUSE ONLY A COUPLE OF TIMES A DAY AND CHARGE THE BATTERIES EVERY NIGHT. The off board charger has already been replaced once under...

The small batteries (17 Amp hour I believe) are notorious for lasting a year and often much less. I consistently replace the original OEM batteries supplied with this chair at the 6 month point. The manufacturer warrants these sealed gel lead acid batteries for only 6 months. Try the AGM (advanced glass mat ) batteries and you should get better life out of them. They might be more expensive at retail pricing but your insurance should pay for the better batteries in my experience. Make sure the charger replaced under warranty is the correct amperage for these small batteries otherwise the output could burn the battery plates.

Hi, The battery cell is too weak to power up the phone.

You will have to leave the phone charging for more hours for the battery cell to come up to be able to power on the phone.

If after charging the battery for longer hours and it doesn't come up,that means the battery cell is dead and will need to be replaced with another battery.

Take care.

Charging problem

Hello,

there is nothing wrong with your charger. The problem is from your battery.

The battery cell is very weak, such that it does not have the ability to with hold power for long.

Therefore, get another battery and the problem will be resolved. But make sure you charge the new battery till its full before you start using it.

Take care.

Usually the red light is on to indacate the batteries are being charged,now the green is the only light that is on

The green light on the charger usually indicates that the batteries are fully charged and you are ready to go. Does the controller show the batteries are fully charged? Can you operate the power wheel chair for several hours? If so, you are good to go.
When you connect the charger, if the light goes to red to green within a few minutes and the battery power does not last more than 1-2 hours or less, it may indicate that that the batteries will not take a charge anymore and need to be replaced.

This is the second Ni-MH battery I've bought that I've used infrequently over the last year and now it doesn't hold much of a charge after I charge it. Some people say I shouldn't leave it on the charger...

Any battery should start charging for over 8 hours and then it goes down to 4 hours, however no one working on a job wait 4 hours to get the batteries charged so they start cutting time and for that it get less and less charges inside and after a while it refuse to take any charge..Drain your batteries totally, charge them over night, see if that work if not just use them tell you are done with them, and get new equipments not new battery. When buying new equipments and charging them remember never use it until you fully charge it for 8 hours and not even use it for a second before it’s fully charged... Let me know if that work for you and please do not forget to rate my service so I can keep providing this service to everyone and improve on it. God bless

Dash standby has a maximum of 12 hours

Are you using the factory charger? If you use after market chargers you could basically blow the battery.

Thats kinda what it sounds like.
