We have recently fitted ReLion 2 x 85 a/h batteries to Sue's TGA Breeze. The last ones were AGM and dropped in range from 15 miles to 9 miles in 6 months. They would take up to 12 hours to charge.

The new batteries don't register any drop over 9 miles, charge in less than 3 hours and the reduction in weight is a joy.

We found them on Liifelight mobility, we are so pleased we've fitted 2 x 18a/h Lion batteries to Sue's Pride Apex Rapid. The difference in weight is astonishing.

Interesting, Management has a Breeze. Are you using the original supplied charger. ?

No. The original charger had reverse polarity and they supplied a new one which works well.

You won't get much of a voltage drop from lithium batteries. They hold their voltage well, but once it does drop, it drops very quickly. Hence your battery meter is probably useless, so be warned.
