How do I find a replacement for my wheelchair battery?

Looking for a replacement power chair battery can initially be intimidating, but there's no need to worry. Once you know the basics about your wheelchair's battery and know how to choose a retailer, you will have no trouble getting a battery that will work perfectly with your wheelchair.

Wheelchair Battery Model Numbers

You know from seeing them in daily life that electric wheelchair models and their batteries come in many different sizes and shapes. When you were shopping for your wheelchair, you probably weighed a number of different options with different features and strengths. Because of this wide variety, it is important as you shop for a new battery that you know some identifying facts about your own electric wheelchair.

The most fundamental fact is your wheelchair's brand, model name (if applicable), and model number. With this information in hand, search for a battery that the retailer states is compatible with your specific brand and model. Having the model number of your wheelchair in hand means that you can be confident that the replacement battery will work for you.

Choosing a Power Chair Battery Retailer

Power chair battery replacements are available from retailers other than the manufacturer or the place where you purchased your wheelchair. As with most purchases, it's advisable to shop around and compare in order to find the best deal on your new wheelchair battery.

Shopping online is a great opportunity to find an excellent price on a battery in a convenient way. Look for a site with a secure checkout and with a search function that allows you to find the right battery for your wheelchair by typing in the wheelchair model number. Avoid any wheelchair battery identified as refurbished, as this used battery will deliver a much short lifespan for your wheelchair than a brand-new wheelchair battery will.
