charger is no good or is not the correct charger for that chair suggestion have a dealer tech replace a original charger in chair,it should have a 3 yr warranty anyways
Replace the batteries and charge before use then charge nightly for 20 days Use the chair daily so you can get a good charge nightly to get the batteries operating at 100% After the 20 days If you don't use the chair daily always store fully charged and then charge once a week overnight. Should work fine once you get the new batteries in You will need to get 2 U1 batteries for your chair do not get Wally World or automotive batteries You must replace with sealed deep cycle batteries made for power chairs Hope this helps
Wayne if you are getting a full charge and then only getting that little running time its time to replace the batteries. If Medicare paid for your chair then they will pay for most of the repair costs.. Contact the provider where you got your chair to ask about new batteries or you can get them yourself for about $200.00+ for both. You will need to get 2 U1 deep cycle batteries. Do not get unsealed or auto batteries for your chair get U1s Hope this helps
Mary yep Even though the batteries are charging they are not holding the charge to provide enough power for the chair. Usually you have one battery that is weak and causing the problem but both batteries must be replaced. If Medicare paid for your chair then they will pay for 80% of the new batteries. You can contact the provider that sold you your chair and ask if they can replace your batteries. If not, you can contact Repair Express @ 1-877-581-3733 or Roadrunner Mobility @ 1-800-467-2668 to have tech come out and repair the chair for you and they will bill Medicare for the cost of repair. Hope this helps
have the batteries checked, there are two gel cell 12 volt batteries, that if one or both will not hold a charge, they will fail on incline as the load on the chair is greater going up hill. Test this out by trying a hill near your house. I had to change one of the batteries in another model Pride that my wife uses for the same problem. The one battery would not hold a charge.
anthony thats the problem batteries seldom used will not be broken in correctly and will get weaker rather than stonger. charging a handful of times will not do it. MK batteries recommends that new batteries be charged nightly for 20 days to break them in. Sorry you will have to get new batteries. Now new batteries usually have a 6 month warranty and if its been less than that try getting them replaced via warranty through the provider that sold you the chair Hope this Helps
Hi. Sounds very much as if your batteries need replacing. Batteries loose there ability to hold a charge if they are left for long periods of time.
Some times repeated charging and discharging will help, but will not be as good as new ones. Good luck. Neil.
if your gel batteries EVER go with out being charged they will lose there power. And never hold a charge for very long again. or not at all. Remember you can't over charge the proper batteries. if your not using it. hook it up to a charger one day a week at minamum.
