When you shop for medical device batteries, the quality of the product can make a life or death difference. You must find a battery source that can help your facility stay within its budget, but you must also find products that meet your specification and quality guidelines.

You can buy medical equipment batteries in varying capacities, depending on whether you require a large discharge of energy over a short period, or a steady flow of energy over longer periods. As you search for medical batteries for your health care business, you can narrow your search by choosing:

1. The latest in lithium medical battery technology

2. A medical battery supplier that can meet diverse health care application needs

3. Maintenance-free medical scooters batteries, which don't require patients to add acid

Action Steps
The best contacts and resources to help you get it done

Select medical lithium batteries for the greatest energy delivery by weight and volume


Lithium medical batteries offer the latest in battery chemistry, offering a high capacity for medical devices that require high voltage over a long time period.

I recommend: Micro Power Electronics, Inc. designs reliable custom lithium battery packs for defibrillators, critical care monitors, ventilators and other life saving devices. Mega Batteries offers medical lithium batteries with leads, so you can create battery packs for your medical applications.

Find one source for all your medical battery equipment


If your facility uses a wide range of biomedical batteries, find a vendor that can offer one-stop shopping to meet your needs.

I recommend: Apex Battery stocks thousands of medical batteries, and they offer their customers a 100% satisfaction guarantee. Hospitals can fully power their operating rooms with the specialty medical batteries offered by ORSupply.com.

Recommend maintenance-free medical scooters batteries for your patients who require home health care


If you supply medical batteries for patients who use motorized scooters, you must provide sealed batteries that don't require the addition of any water or acid. Although you can buy gel or AGM (absorbed glass mats) batteries for medical scooters, AGM batteries withstand more abuse than gel, and they won't leak acid even if the case is cracked.

I recommend: A1 Medical Supplies sells AGM batteries sealed with a premium valve, rated as non-spillable and safe for air travel. E Products To Go, LLC, provides its customers with an online cross reference tool to find the exact scooter battery to meet your needs.

Tips & Tactics
Helpful advice for making the most of this Guide

  • Ask your battery vendor how fresh the batteries are when you place your order. Fully charged batteries can self-discharge when they sit on a shelf for more than two months, meaning they can lose voltage without you ever having used them in a medical device. Reputable medical battery suppliers send you fully charged medical device batteries, ready to use.
