How long do mobility scooter batteries last?

As useful as it would be for batteries to last forever, mobility scooter batteries and indeed ALL batteries will eventually stop working. Did you know, however, that the root cause of battery failure is usually human error? In particular, the number one battery killer is incorrect charging.

“Very few batteries die a natural death, they are murdered”

– Philadelphia scientific.

This means that we have to start our blog article by saying that there is no simple answer to the actual question ‘how long do mobility scooter batteries last’. Strident’s batteries, for example, have been manufactured with a 10-year design life – but our blog explains why we don’t shout about that too much because it is the equivalent of a car manufacturer publishing a miles-per-gallon figure that no-one experiences in real life.

The reality is that the lifespan of your battery depends on numerous factors, such as:

  • frequency of use
  • range used
  • terrain travelled over
  • the combined weight of mobility scooter and rider
  • charging regime
  • charger used

But the top factor, by far, remains the charging regime and equipment used – and so we can at least help you to identify how you can maximise the lifespan of your power chair or mobility scooter battery.

testing mobility scooter battery

The main cause of battery death – incorrect charging

Poor charging management, whether that’s overcharging or undercharging, is the main reasons for battery failure. This is because a great deal of mobility scooter users are not told about, or don’t fully appreciate, the impact poor charging management can have on your mobility scooter battery.

Before we get into how you charge your batteries the right way, let’s take a look at the effects of overcharging and undercharging your battery can have.

Overcharging mobility scooter batteries

A common question we get asked is, can mobility scooter batteries be overcharged?

The simple answer to this is yes.

Whilst it is much more difficult to overcharge a battery than undercharge one, the consequences can be more serious. Overcharging typically only occurs in three situations.

  1. The charger is broken or severely worn, so it does not switch itself off when it reaches maximum capacity.
  2. The charger is too big (higher power than needed) resulting in the battery receiving too much charge and, essentially, you end up ‘frying it’.
  3. You’re using a ‘cheap’ low-quality charger that is not delivering the correct charge or failing to monitor the battery state thus allowing charging of the battery past its limit.

Whilst there are fewer ways to overcharge, the consequences are much more severe. Overcharging mobility scooter batteries has a much more sudden impact than undercharging does. If you significantly overcharge a battery for 2-3 hours then there is a high chance you will cause irreparable damage to the battery plates – even a new battery – in a very short space of time.

Undercharging mobility scooter batteries

Let’s flip the above and answer the question, can mobility scooter batteries be undercharged?

The same answer applies here – yes! It is possible to undercharge your battery.

It’s much more common and actually very easy to undercharge your mobility scooter battery (and sometimes not even know you’re doing anything wrong). The consequence, technically, is that the lack of charging fails to break down the sulphates within the battery and so doesn’t condition the battery in an optimum way.

Undercharging can happen in a few different ways:

  1. Not charging your mobility scooter overnight after every use. This results in a build-up of sulphate which prevents the battery from reaching 100% capacity (although it may still say this on the scooter battery gauge).
  2. Using a cheap or faulty charger. This can result in a smaller amount of charge actually feeding the battery, which means that the battery will run flat quicker.
  3. Leaving your mobility scooter uncharged and unused for long periods of time. For example, if you don’t use your scooter throughout the winter months. You should still fully charge your battery around every 6 weeks.

Undercharging mobility scooter batteries causes a much slower failure than overcharging does. But, every time you undercharge your scooter, you are shortening the lifespan of your battery, even if you are not completely ruining it.

Top Tip: Making sure you are using the correct charger could reduce the total spend on batteries over the life of a mobility scooter.

Trying to use your mobility scooter with little or no charge

First of all, you should try to avoid letting your mobility scooter battery run completely flat. Aside from potentially being stranded with no means of transport, it can cause serious damage to your battery.

Due to this potential damage, most mobility scooters now have a lower power limit at which point the power will cut-out. This is usually somewhere around 9.6 volts on a typical mobility scooter battery.

Do be careful that, if you were to completely drain your battery, you might find that if you left your mobility scooter for 30 minutes that your its battery gauge may miraculously show some charge and the battery may even come to life again. This is because that whilst they’re not being used, the battery is actually self-charging. But do please be aware, using your scooter in this reduced state will further damage the battery life.

Top Tip: Avoid draining the battery on your mobility scooter and don’t be tempted to think ‘there is a little bit of charge left’. Both can ultimately shorten battery life.

To provide you with a better understanding of how the internal components of a battery work, we’ve put together a short video pointing out the features of a Strident battery.

How to charge mobility scooter batteries (the right way)

Remembering our main question about ‘how long do mobility scooter batteries last’ – we return again to the question of whether you are charging your mobility scooter batteries correctly to get the most from them.

Here’s a step by step process of charging your battery the right way.

  1. Get a quality and intelligent charger. This provides a stepped charging process that will safely charge your mobility scooter battery and actually improve its longevity.
  2. When you get your new battery, fully charge it in case it has been sitting in storage for a while.
  3. After you’re finished with your mobility scooter for the day, even if you have only used a relatively small amount of battery power, put it on charge and leave it overnight. This avoids leaving the battery in what is termed a ‘neutral state’.
  4. If you’re not using your mobility scooter for a time, ensure you still charge it every 6 weeks if connected, or 3-4 months if disconnected from the mobility scooter.

Whilst this might sound slightly unexpected, the advice is that you should also change your charger every few years. Whilst there may be no moving parts in a charger, there are still electronic components that wear out such as transistors and capacitors. A single faulty component can easily lead to overcharging or undercharging.

The video below shows you how Strident’s three-stage chargers work.

Are expensive batteries better?

Once again, the answer is related to usage. Treat an expensive battery badly and it might fail as quickly as a standard one. However, treat a standard or expensive battery the same and there is a very high likelihood that the expensive batteries will last longer even though they carry that higher price tag. These batteries will have higher quality components that last longer – e.g. the battery plates – and there will be a higher quality manufacturing process.

Cheap batteries:

You may have stumbled across some cheaper batteries, which, on the outside, look exactly the same as a more expensive battery. They may even show the same charge capacity in a brand new state. But, when you look at the internal components of the battery, however, there is often a clear difference in the quality and quantity of lead being used.

You should be careful when buying a new battery since, when tested, cheap and more expensive batteries may return the same results. Take a closer look at the specifications and ask your mobility dealer to explain the differences in performance and life expectancy of the battery.

Taking extra care with a purchase is important as it is actually a few months down the line when you would notice a difference in performance. If you were to test two batteries, one cheaper with less, low-quality lead, and one more expensive with thicker plates and lots of high-quality lead, you would see that, over time, the cheaper battery has less and less capacity compared to the more expensive one.

Top Tip: If you want to make a long-term purchase decision for a higher quality battery, your slightly more expensive battery can actually save you more money over time. As long as you look after it!

Can testing batteries incorrectly have an effect on battery life?

The main issue in testers damaging batteries again comes down to overcharging. In some cases, it has been known for people to test mobility scooter batteries with standard automotive battery chargers that run ‘drop tests’.

A drop test works by suddenly drawing a large surge of power from a battery (as if you were trying to crank a car engine). This method works fine for cars since car batteries have a larger capacity, but smaller mobility scooter batteries designed for a steady delivery of power over a course of time can be damaged by drop tests.

Top Tip: Testers for mobility scooter batteries should be conducting a discharge test to measure ‘current control’, so be sure to always use a proper mobility scooter battery tester.

If you want any advice on how to care for your battery and keep it in tip-top condition, we’d be more than happy to have a quick conversation with you.

How can wear on mobility scooter tyres affect battery performance?

guide to mobility scooter batteries

For anyone starting to experience poorer battery performance on a mobility scooter, one of the key factors that can have a big impact is the condition of the scooter tyres and, in particular, tyre wear.

So, if a mobility scooter isn’t performing as usual, don’t always assume it is just the battery to blame. While this might be true – and should be checked – you could be missing the actual reason as to why the battery is underperforming.

How does mobility scooter tyre wear affect battery performance?

When tyres become worn or are underinflated, this creates more friction on the surface as a result. In turn, this causes the motor (or motors) on the mobility scooter to work harder, and thus the battery will drain more quickly.

Preventing mobility scooter tyres from wearing

There are numerous ways to prevent tyre wear on a mobility scooter:

  1. Visually check the tyre tread depth and, if you can see that it’s running low, then it is time to think about a replacement. Also, check for any bald patches and tears that have appeared.
  2. If the mobility scooter has pneumatic tyres – ensure the mobility scooter’s tyres are inflated to the correct PSI. Underinflated tyres cause added friction and an overworking of the battery and motors. (Do not over-inflate though as this can increase the risk of a puncture or tyre blow-out.)
  3. Ensure the mobility scooter receives regular servicing. A professional will be able to advise on when a mobility scooter needs new tyres and can point out any safety issues.

What are the signs of mobility scooter tyre wear?

As with anything, when mobility scooter tyres begin to wear, you will notice some changes to the general ride of the mobility scooter.

Reduced mobility scooter range

One of the key signs that tyres are beginning to wear is a reduced range. It is very easy to think that the battery on the mobility scooter needs replacing when the range falls – but there may be nothing wrong with it, and it is underperforming only as a result of the tyres wearing.

Other signs of tyre wear are very different depending on whether the mobility scooter has pneumatic or solid tyres. Let’s talk you through what the signs are for both.

Pneumatic tyres:

  • Steering begins to feel heavier because of worn or flat tyres
  • Visual indicators that the tyres have become flat
  • Tyre treads are not very deep, and areas of the rubber are worn

Solid tyres:

  • Along with the external wear and tear, solid mobility scooter tyres have the potential to wear internally, which makes it hard to check the wear on the tyres visually.
  • A more likely sign of internal wear in solid tyres can be an uneven feel to the ride or look ‘underinflated’

What are the best mobility scooter tyres to use?

We would always recommend opting for tyres from reputable brands. Ask mobility scooter users what they have found to be reliable. You can also use the internet to look at forums for advice.

At Strident we stock tyres from two of the most reputable, established, brands in the mobility scooter industry – Cheng Shin and Innova.

The more ‘budget’ tyres will use a synthetic, cheaper rubber and, if you see one together with a ‘premium’ tyre, you will notice that the tread depth is less, which means that the tyre won’t last as long. You’ll also be able to feel how much thinner and lighter the material is on the budget tyre.

So our advice is very much to use a premium and a reputable brand, and that will ensure users are always maximising battery performance.

You may also want to consider whether you want to use a solid or air tyre.

To help decide what’s best for someones own personal use we’ve done another blog that compares air vs solid mobility scooter tyres.

Who should replace mobility scooter tyres?

Replacing a mobility scooter tyre isn’t an easy job that anybody can do, it requires specialist training and equipment. For example, when replacing a solid tyre, the tyre needs to be compressed before fitting to the wheel rim using specialist equipment.

When fitting solid tyres, there is a danger that if it is not fitted correctly, then it won’t grip the rims properly. This is a real safety hazard and puts the user at risk of having an accident.

Don’t put users at risk on a mobility scooter

Worn, underinflated or incorrectly fitted tyres not only impact battery performance but can carry a risk. No-one would drive a car on the road with worn tyres, so why would anyone use worn tyres on something as important as a mobility scooter?

Driving on worn tyres comes with risks, the major one being losing traction on a slope or turning a sharp corner. When mobility scooter tyres start to wear and become bald, there is an immediate risk of losing control. Please do make sure mobility scooters receive regular servicing and do visually check the tyres on a regular basis for signs of wear.

Why use Strident for your mobility scooter tyres?

At Strident, we only stock tyres from reputable brands, so you can be sure that you’re getting excellent quality. We also recognise that you may need to get hold of them quickly, so we hold all of our tyres in stock and so, in most cases, we can dispatch tyres on the same day.

naidex 2018 exhibition

Why Strident?

If you have not already come across Strident products in your local or online retailer, here is a quick rundown of why you should take a look while attending the Naidex 2018 Exhibition.

Why use our batteries?

Today it is apparent that there is no universal battery to fit every application. We recognised this at Strident and invested in R & D and extensive product testing. The result is a battery that is ideally suited for the medical market, one that will sustain high demands of constant use and will perform to a high number of cycles. This battery gives dependent users the confidence in having power when and where they need it.

Why use our chargers and testers?

The consistency of charge produces optimum battery performance. As such, the Strident range of chargers has been carefully selected to provide that consistency. By utilising the three critical stages required for quality battery charging, the Strident range gives the peace of mind to achieve the very best from your equipment. With the use of the Strident intelligent three-stage charging technique, premature battery failure is significantly reduced by ensuring the correct levels of charge are applied at every stage regardless of size. This technique eliminates the risk of gassing that is often caused by overcharging by traditional single-stage charging. Furthermore, this also maintains plate quality at its best performance level by reducing compound breakdown.

Why use our traction products?

With over 15 years experience in the mobility industry, Strident is well placed to offer the broadest range of high-quality mobility consumables including a full range of mobility tyres. Whether you are looking for Tyres, Tubes, Pneumatic or Solid, you will find a solution for your traction needs.

national battery day free delivery

Celebrate National Battery Day 18th February with free delivery all week

free delivery mobility batteries

It's worth celebrating National Battery Day

On February 18th each year we apparently celebrate National Battery Day, Drink Wine Day and, most bizarre of all, Eat Ice Cream for Breakfast Day. We will leave it to the winemakers and ice cream makers to promote their respective days - but we would like to stick with what we know best and promote National Battery Day!

So often we take for granted this amazing device that allows electricity to be carried around, well away from wires and chargers. We are all probably carrying many batteries around with us all day for devices such as phones, watches, key fobs, fitness devices, etc. The battery is not often seen – but it makes quite a lot of things possible.

For a significant number of people in the UK, batteries play an even more significant role – providing mobility and healthcare solutions for the disabled, injured, infirm or aged. To these groups, the battery that sits in their mobility scooter, powered wheelchair, personal hoist or riser chair makes many things possible.

How to celebrate National Battery Day

It may be a little too much to buy your mobility or healthcare battery a card or a bunch of flowers – however close to Valentines Day we are – but you could:

  • CHECK your batteries. The health of your battery is essential when it powers something that you depend upon.
  • CHARGE your batteries. Different batteries need different maintenance and charging regimes. We have articles on battery care that you can take a look at.
  • REPLACE old or unreliable batteries. Sadly, no battery lasts forever so don’t get caught out and replace ones at the end of their life. Here is where we really can help if you would like to call our Advice Line and see what would be the best replacement battery for your particular circumstances.

Our contribution to National Battery Day

In recognition of this annual celebration, we would like to offer FREE DELIVERY on any battery order placed with us during the week starting with National Battery Day. So from Sunday 18th February to Saturday 24th February, there will be no delivery charges added to your order.

The best thing to do is to call us on 01362 300102 or you can browse our online batteries catalogue and submit an enquiry.

We wish you a very happy, ‘flat-battery-free’, National Battery Day!
