FAQ'S
Here are 6 frequently asked questions (FAQs) for MK 22ah mobility scooter batteries
1. What type of battery is the MK 22ah?
The MK 22ah is a high-performance sealed Gel battery (or sometimes an AGM). This “deep-cycle” design means it’s built to provide a steady, reliable amount of power over a long period, making it ideal for mobility scooters. Being sealed, it is non-spillable, maintenance-free, and very safe.
2. What sort of range can I expect from 22ah batteries?
The range is affected by user weight, the type of scooter, and the terrain (e.g., hills, smooth pavements). As a general guide, a pair of 22ah batteries typically provides a range of up to 12-15 miles on a full charge for an average-sized pavement scooter.
3. How often should I charge my MK 22ah batteries?
For the best battery health and lifespan, you should charge your batteries every time you use your scooter, even if it was only for a short journey. It is best practice to put your scooter on charge overnight and let the automatic charger turn itself off when they are full.
4. What is the average lifespan of these batteries?
With correct charging and regular use, a premium pair of MK 22ah batteries should last between 18 months and 3 years. Daily, heavy use may result in a shorter lifespan, while very infrequent use (allowing the batteries to sit flat) can also damage them.
5. How will I know when my batteries need replacing?
The most common sign is a significant drop in performance. You will notice that your scooter:
- Does not travel as far as it used to on a full charge.
- The battery gauge drops much faster than normal.
- The scooter feels “sluggish” or struggles on slopes or kerbs it used to manage easily.
6. Are MK 22ah Gel batteries approved for air travel?
Yes. As they are sealed, non-spillable batteries, they are classed as safe for air travel by aviation authorities. However, you must declare them to your airline well in advance of your flight to confirm their specific policy and complete any necessary paperwork.
