Batteries & Chargers

Signs include reduced runtime per charge, difficulty reaching full charge, visible corrosion or swelling, and cell imbalance. Our technicians can perform a capacity test to objectively measure state of health and determine whether reconditioning or replacement makes more economic sense.

Conventional charging involves fully depleting a battery before a complete overnight charge cycle. Opportunity charging uses shorter top-up charges during breaks and downtime, which can extend runtime without swapping batteries — but it requires a charger and battery rated for opportunity use.

Lithium-ion batteries have higher upfront costs but offer faster charging, longer cycle life, no watering requirements, and stable voltage throughout the discharge cycle. For multi-shift operations or facilities with limited battery room space, they can deliver strong ROI over a five-to-seven year period.

Yes. We offer preventive maintenance programs for chargers and can repair most industrial charger brands. A poorly maintained charger can shorten battery life significantly, so regular service on the charger is as important as care for the battery itself.
