Gel Indoor Outdoor

Gel Indoor Outdoor

What is the best way to charge mobility scooters...(more)?

...for optimal long term performance and to maximize the number of life cycles with gel type batteries?

Do you charge the battery each night - regardless of whether or not it's drained, or is it better to charge after levels start getting really low?

How long have yours lasted before needing replacement?

As a frequent flyer, I'm aware of the regulations & rules when it comes to batteries, but I've never flown with any medical device other than the manual chair. Have you flown on the airlines with your scooter before? If you have, how did it go? Any damage?

Yes, too many questions...

I'm tentatively looking at some of the 3 wheeled indoor/outdoor scooters but haven't really done my research yet. (I will!) Please & thank you.
Thank you both.
@Melinda: I use a manual chair (no batteries), and am looking into possibly getting a scooter. Sorry for the confusion.

What I have been told, and seems to be true....

In general charge your batteries every time you use them to keep the battery at full charge.

But occasionally - once a month or so - let them run down completely

Mine need replacement about every 2 years, but I get a very long life out of them - more usual is once a year.

I do travel with mine often, and thankfully it has never been damaged. Sometimes they change the settings and I think it doesn't work, but quickly realize it is fine. (They change it so it wheels & brakes are unlocked so it can be rolled - and that means it cannot move when turned on. I panicked the first time this happened until I realized this is what they typically do.)

I roll my scooter right up to the door of the plane. Sometimes I fold it up and they keep it on the plane in the "closet" - other times it gets stashed away. Seems to depend on a number of factors which they do - how much time before the flight, how full the flight is, is the closet already being used (which it often is.)

You do need to allow extra time to get off the plane if you want it to be at the plane door. I usually have to wait about 5-10 minutes after everyone has deboarded for my scooter to arrive. But you can also have it brought to the gate and wait for your scooter in the waiting area.

How to Grow and Care for Skin Healing Aloe Vera Succulents as Houseplants or in the Garden

Aloe Vera, known as the healing plant, is easy to care for indoors in containers or in the garden. It is a drought tolerant succulent plant which grows well in dry shade to part sun. Its bright green stalks grow up to 1 foot long and up to 2 inches thick They usually have creamy white stripes or dots along the leaves. Aloe plants grow upright and spread with time by creating offsets. Perennial aloe produces dramatic, bright orange flowers on long stalks in the spring and summer. Used medicinally aloe vera gel is beneficial for burns, minor cuts, scrapes, insect bites and other skin irritations.

Drought resistant aloe is great for in dry gardens with other succulents and cacti. They don't mind heat as long as they don't get too much sun. It is even reliable in dry shade. Aloe does best in light or dappled shade on the porch or on the windowsill. One to two hours of direct sun is plenty. Dark brown or orange spots on the leaves is a sign of sunburn. Aloe vera is easy to care for and only needs water once a month or when the stalks become shriveled. Planted in the ground, it can tolerate more drought and will grow slightly larger. Aloes are cold hardy to about 45 degrees. They may survive a light frost with overhead protection. I wouldn't leave them outdoors in the open if Jack Frost visits your area frequently. Indoors, they are suited to the hot dry conditions of the average home. They will tolerate a few hours of sun a day, but should be fine anywhere with lots of bright, indirect sunlight.

Aloe vera plants form offset pups and will eventually become a clump. Mine started out in a small 4 inch pot from the nursery. Normally, you should repot plants in a slightly larger container. But I planted my aloe in a huge 12 inch pot, knowing it would fill in. Who has time to repot their plants all the time? To keep the pot from looking empty, I planted a small trailing succulent around the edges. They have similar cultivation needs, so they get along great and look terrific. After the first year, my aloe created lots of offsets and filled in the container nicely. The new shoots are easy to tease out from the main plant so I can replant them or give them to friends.

Aloe vera is famous for its healing benefits and is commonly grown in kitchen gardens to help with minor burns and other skin problems. To use aloe, work with one inch chunks cut from the tips of the leaves. Peel off the spines and cut open the chunk. Squeeze out the aloe juice and pulp onto sunburns or other skin irritations. Spread it around with your fingers or the aloe peel. It will feel cold on burns. The juice may feel sticky at first, but will eventually dry out, leaving a slight green tint. Apply 1 - 2 times a day to cool off burns and help heal skin.

I was amazed at how well it worked on my baby's diaper rash when nothing else helped. First, I'd slather the skin with aloe gel, then put the remaining pulp into his diaper and wrap it all up. Usually the rash was cleared up in a few hours. Fresh is best, studies suggest aloe starts to loose its properties within an hour of picking.
