Compatibility
This battery pack is designed for reclining furniture with a standard 2-pin connector. It is compatible with many models from brands such as Pride Mobility, OKIN, Cheers (Man Wah Group), and Limoss.

- Plug the wall plug into a standard electrical outlet.
- The LCD display on the battery pack will show the charging progress. A full charge typically takes approximately 4-6 hours.
- You can continue to use your furniture while the battery is charging, or you can remove the battery pack to charge it separately.

Maintenance
To ensure optimal performance and longevity of your battery pack:
- Regular Charging: Recharge the battery when the LCD display indicates a low charge.
- Avoid Deep Discharge: Do not allow the battery to completely drain frequently, as this can reduce its lifespan.
- Proper Storage: If storing the battery for an extended period, ensure it is partially charged (around 50%) and stored in a cool, dry place.
- Clean Connections: Keep the connectors clean and free from dust or debris.
Troubleshooting
Battery Drains Quickly (Ghost Drainage)
Some recliners, especially those with extra features like LED lights or USB ports, draw power continuously even when not in use. This phenomenon, known as "Ghost Drainage" or "Standby Power Loss," is unavoidable for certain furniture models.
If your battery drains faster than expected, it may be due to your furniture's power consumption. You may need to charge your battery more frequently. Consider purchasing a Battery Life Extender Kit if your furniture has additional features that contribute to faster drainage.
