[QUAD-L] Barreries

[greg]

I got new batteries in Aug, but already after a few miles, my chair feels sluggish. After about 4 miles, my chair has 2 out of 5 bars left of power. Then really gets bad even on a small ramp. Chair stops, charge bar meter flashes and I have to turn it off and on. The last 3 weeks or so, after a few miles, the charge meter on the joystick flahes the Pi sign, TT one wavy cross on top. The chair repair shop, nor Invacare, can figure out the flashing Pi sign. Neither have ever seen it before. My chair is old and I'm just starting the new chair prosses. But is there anything that an old chair can do to cause batteries to go out fast. Or draw to much power?   Just called to try and get the battering replaced.   Greg
