Have you ever wondered how to connect batteries in a series, and why you might need to? Probably not, unless you're a battery nerd like the good folks at Powertron. But we're going to explain it anyway. It's like stacking power — but instead of physically stacking batteries, you're adding voltage to your setup. And [...]
A fully charged wheelchair battery typically lasts 8 to 10 hours. On a full charge, a wheelchair can cover approximately 10 to 15 miles, depending on terrain and the user's weight. The lifespan of an electric wheelchair battery is generally 18 to 24 months. It performs at peak capacity for about 1.5 years before it [...]
Battery capacity refers to the amount of energy a battery can store. It's typically measured in ampere-hours (Ah) or milliampere-hours (mAh). This measure indicates how long a battery can power a device before recharging. The higher the capacity, the longer the battery can last on a single charge. Battery capacity also affects how much you [...]
Over 200,000 golf carts are sold annually in the USA. Many never see a golf course. They're used in large residential communities, resorts, hotels, vacation properties, and on the grounds of businesses with extensive facilities. Most standard golf carts operate on a 36-volt or a 48-volt system. A 36-volt golf cart typically needs three 12-volt [...]
Crime is rampant in many of America's biggest cities. Home security systems are in high demand. But did you know that most security systems are only as good as the batteries that power them? And that they typically last only 3–5 years? A system without power offers no protection at all. Backup batteries are installed [...]
Deep cycle batteries power everything from golf carts and wheelchairs to recreational vehicles and boats. Unlike automotive batteries, which deliver short bursts of energy, deep-cycle batteries are built for the long haul. They're the marathoners of the battery world. Deep-cycle batteries release a significant portion of their capacity over an extended period. This unique design [...]
