How Do I choose a battery?
Choosing a battery is simple. The first step is to identify the Amp Hrs or Ah required. This is normally on your current battery. The second step is to choose between the AGM and Gel Range. Both the AGM and GEL batteries are designed for mobility style applications.
AGM Range properties
AGM batteries have been specifically designed to endure cyclic applications such as electric wheelchairs by changing the battery grid technology and chemistry to improve charge acceptance and deep discharge recovery which in turn will promote a longer life.
Gel batteries like the AGM range are designed for use in applications like electric wheelchairs. However these batteries use a Gel substance in place of the usual acid electrolyte. They offer exceptional recovery from deep discharge plus limited deterioration from extra deep discharge, and can maintain an optimum level of performance even after heavy usage over a prolonged period of time.
In summary if you mainly use the scooter for short trips and always recharge it when you return home go for a AGM battery otherwise if you use the wheelchair for long trips and always drain the battery or don't always recharge it then choose a Gel battery.
