Greg...my batteries ran dead and they were replaced with the lead acid type and
had to buy another type charger because the old charger was made more for the
gel type batteries, The Gel batteries are much better and last longer but when
they replace them they go with the regular acid type because of cost I think.
My chair is real old also 7 years plus and trying to get a new one because my
back-up chair is shot and this one is beginning to develop problems also. Dan

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
