How Long Will A Charge Last on A Battery Powered Ride On Toy

Charge time and battery overall life will depend on a number of variable conditions. Your childs weight, the temperature, the type of terrain the toy is used in and the condition of the battery are a few. Typically you can expect one to two hours of continuous use. Since most children do not ride the battery powered vehicle for two hours straight you can typically expect a fully charged battery to last for a day or two's play.

To insure a long battery life you should fully charge the battery at the end of every days play with the Toddler car. Unlike other rechargeable batteries, they will not build up a "memory" effect and shorten the overall battery life.You should charge the battery for a full 12 hours at least once per month to maintain optimal performance. Times may vary slightly, refer to the user manual for your specific toy.These batteries should never be fully discharged as that will actually shorten the overall battery life.

The actual lifespan of these rechargeable batteries is directly related to the average amount of discharge during use. A battery the is discharged more than 50% before recharging will not last as long as a battery that is recharged after 25% discharge. A properly maintained and charged battery should last between 2 and 3 years.

You should NEVER use any charger other than the the one supplied by the toy manufacturer. Refer to the user manual for proper charging and maintenance instructions.

If you need to store the battery powered kids ride on toy for long periods you should fully charge the battery before storing.
