If you are using a forklift that is an electric powered engine, you may be wondering how it works. Electric forklift is being powered using batteries or fuel cells. However, most of these models use a rechargeable battery that is more economical and convenient. Using forklift batteries to charge it, it gives forklift the power when the battery is already drained.
The price to charge a forklift batteries varies from the brand and the model that you buy. Usually the price of a brand new forklift battery chargers ranges from 700 to 1500 dollars. One of the major factors that may affect the quality of your battery is the proper way of charging it. Batteries can be very sensitive especially when it has been used for several times without a proper charging, and as such, it may get easily drained.

When you are going to charge your forklift battery, make sure that it has been discharged for about 80%. Do not wait for the battery to be completely drained. Most of the forklifts that use a battery have a power indicator that you must always check on before and after you use the forklift. A brand new battery has a total of 1,500 or more charge "cycles" so if you can minimize the charging cycle, that will be great. In that way, you are not consuming that much of its charging cycle. Some models of forklift battery chargers have an option of weekend, weekly, or the equalize that has an equal of 5 to 10 charging cycles. In this way, you will avoid charging the battery often. Using forklift battery chargers often to your battery will cause for the battery to become ineffective and will shorten its life.

So, battery for a forklift has an expensive price that can add to your expenses that is why it is important to observe the right way of charging your battery to make its life longer.
