Batteries

Aristo-Craft has been supplying economical Gel Cell Lead Acid batteries for several years.

Battery technology is evolving quickly and we are now able to offer affordable Lithium Ion batteries.  These are state of the art batteries which give three times the output of equivalent size Ni-Cad batteries.

The Aristo-Craft Lithium Ion Battery Pack gives 2 amp hours at 21.5 volts and includes an auto-cutoff and re-settable circuit breaker.

Lithium Ion batteries have no adverse memory to upset recharging and they can be connected in parallel, so with two battery packs you can have 4 amp hours still at 21.5 volts.
