How To Maintain The Sightseeing Car Battery Daily?
For our electric sightseeing car, there are two kinds of batteries for you to choose: lithium battery and lead-acid battery. Each battery has its advantages and disadvantages. And their ways of maintenance are different, too. So what are the features of these two batteries? And how to maintain the sightseeing car battery daily? Now please follow me and learn about that.
What are the features of two kinds of batteries?
About the lithium battery, it is environmentally friendly because it uses non-aqueous electrolyte solution. Besides, it is light in weight and has long life. So you can use it for a long time. However, there are some disadvantages of the lithium battery. For example, it has higher price and a little lower safety than lead-acid battery. When you need to charge, you should take out the battery.
And for the lead- acid battery, it needs affordable price, and has a little higher safety than lithium battery. What’s more, you don’t need take out the battery to charge. That is convenient for you and can help you save much time. But the discarded lead-acid battery may pollute our environment because it uses sulfuric acid electrolyte. And it is heavy in weight and shorter life than the lithium battery.
So after learning about the advantages and disadvantages of these two batteries, you can choose the suitable battery according to your needs and preference.

Storage and Charging Environment
The environment of storage and charging should avoid too high or too low temperatures. Because if the temperature is too high or too low, it may effect the power of the battery and reduce life span. And the charging temperature of lithium battery is 0℃~35℃, and the storage temperature of lithium battery is -20℃~45℃. Besides, you should keep it ventilated and dry, and also avoid sun exposure and rain.
Precautions for Long-term Storage
If you need store the lithium battery for a long time, you should charge it once a month and keep the power between 50% and 70%. And if you want to use after long time storage, you should charge it fully. Pay attention to avoid the damage to battery caused by overcharging and over-discharging.
How to maintain the lead-acid battery of sightseeing car?
Daily Ways of Charging
If you need use it everyday, you should charge it everyday. That can prevent battery vulcanization. What’s more, you need to perform a deep discharge every 1-3 months, which can activate the active substances that have sunk due to long-term use.
Replenish Electrolyte or Distilled Water in Time
For the lead-acid battery, you need replenish professional electrolyte or distilled water in time. Because after the lead-acid battery is used for a period of time, the electrolyte will lose water due to electrolysis evaporation. If the water is not replenished in time, danger may occur during charging, especially in high temperature seasons.
Besides, the storage and charging environment, and the precautions for long-term storage of lead-acid battery are similar to the lithium battery.
Finally, after learning about how to maintain the battery well, and then you may use the electric sightseeing car for a long time.
