Lithium batteries**, ready to travel.
Thinking about traveling in the future but worry that you can’t bring your power chair or mobility scooter battery on the flight? We have the perfect solution for you! Get a lithium battery for your GoGo Endurance Li, Jazzy Passport, Go Go Folding Scooter 4-wheel or iRide 2 3-wheel scooter.
The FAA allows you to bring lithium batteries up to 300Wh or less on the plane. The batteries can be checked or brought as a carry on. A maximum of one spare battery not exceeding 300 Wh or two spares not exceeding 160 Wh each may be carried on.
If the battery stays on the unit, it must be protected against other baggage, or other cargo. Suppose the mobility device does not provide adequate protection. In that case, the battery must be removed, battery terminals covered, and the battery must be taken on as carry-on baggage.
Before traveling with your power chair or mobility scooter, we recommend you contact your airline on how to transport your battery as a passenger. You might be required to plan prior to your trip, and additional time might be needed for check-in.
Before your trip, you should also check with your airline if your folded-up wheelchair/device will be allowed in the passenger cabin or if the mobility device, with batteries removed, will have to travel as checked baggage.
