Flying with the Pulse ComfortRide

Airlines care about how much energy a wheelchair battery stores, measured in watt-hours (Wh). You work it out as volts × amp-hours. The Pulse ComfortRide uses a 24V 12Ah lithium-ion battery, which is about 288 Wh. That is under the 300 Wh limit that airline safety rules set for a battery removed from a wheelchair, which makes air travel simpler.

Always tell your airline before you fly. Removed and spare batteries must go in the cabin with their terminals covered. You may carry one spare battery up to 300 Wh, or two spares up to 160 Wh each.
