  1. Remarkable Tips to Maintain Your LiFePO4 Mobility Scooter Batteries Your mobility scooter is an essential vehicle that can make it easier for you to go from one place to another on your own. So, it makes sense to ensure that it is always in good condition and that you have reliable batteries for it. LiFePO4 or lithium iron phosphate is among the ​best mobility scooter batteries for its long lifespan and safety, smaller size, and lighter weight than regular lead acid batteries, and the security it offers. LiFePO4 batteries may be proven reliable and rugged for everyday use, but they also deserve some TLC. Here are some tips that will enable you to maintain them properly: Charge properly – You can prolong the life of the cell of a lithium battery by avoiding extremely deep discharges. Consider sticking to a depth of discharge ranging from 70 to 80 percent maximum, except in urgent matters. Use appropriate chargers – The wrong charger could harm the longevity and performance of the LiFePO4 battery, so always use the charger recommended by the battery manufacturer or one that is specified in the product manual. Monitor its status – High-quality mobility scooter batteries come with a charge LED indicator, which can tell you how much energy is remaining. Take care of the batteries - LiFePO4 batteries have a built-in battery management system (BMS) to protect them from overheating, over-discharging, and overcharging, but you still need to take care not to expose them to extreme temperatures and leaving them too long to charge. Avoid fully discharging them – Over-discharging is one of the causes of premature failure in LiFePO4 mobility scooter batteries. Although they have a BMS, repeatedly draining them fully could damage the cell and void the warranty. Keep the terminals clean – ​On top of your LiFePO4 battery are terminals, which are made of copper and aluminum. Over time, they can develop an oxide buildup as the result of being exposed to air. So, inspect them before installing the BMS modules and cell interconnectors to remove the oxidation. By removing the oxide layer, heat buildup can be reduced at the terminals and conduction may improve.
