New Power Wheels 6-Volt Rechargeable Battery
My son recently received a Power Wheels jeep that had been in use for
over 3 years before he got it. The batteries had not been charged as
specified in the instructions, and they died shortly after he started
using it. The jeep couldn't run on concrete, much less on grass.
I
replaced both existing batteries with these, which incidentally are a
different colour from the picture, and the jeep now runs fine on most
surfaces.
It requires 18 hours charging time before you can use
the batteries, so be prepared for some impatience before the vehicle can
actually be used. You have to charge them after each use, and also
once a month if the vehicle is not in use, at 16 hours each time.
Tech
support from Fisher Price is non-existent in my part of the world,
where 800 numbers are not accessible, because their site doesn't have a
customer service or tech support e-mail address listed. I needed
important information, because I learned that the model I have was
recalled for electrical problems, and I wanted to see exactly which
parts needed to be fixed to solve the problem.
I'm sure that these batteries will last a long time with proper care, but wish the tech support was better
