Scissor Lift & Cherry Picker Batteries – 6V Deep Cycle US Industrial Batteries

If you're looking for reliable replacement batteries for scissor lifts, cherry pickers, or access platforms, we supply high-quality 6V deep cycle industrial batteries designed specifically for powered access equipment.

Our range of 6V US deep cycle batteries is suitable for electric scissor lifts, boom lifts, MEWPs (Mobile Elevated Work Platforms), and other heavy-duty industrial applications that require long runtime, durability, and consistent performance.

Whether you're a hire company, contractor, warehouse operator or facilities manager, we stock dependable deep cycle batteries built for demanding working environments.

What Batteries Do Scissor Lifts & Cherry Pickers Use?

Most electric scissor lifts and cherry pickers operate on battery banks made up of multiple 6V deep cycle batteries connected in series to produce:

  • 24V systems (4 x 6V)
  • 36V systems (6 x 6V)
  • 48V systems (8 x 6V)

These systems require true deep cycle batteries designed to handle:

  • Repeated discharge cycles
  • Long operating shifts
  • High load demands
  • Frequent charging

Automotive batteries are not suitable for these machines.

Why 6V Deep Cycle Batteries Are Used in Access Equipment

6V batteries are commonly used in powered access equipment because they:

? Provide thicker internal plates for deep cycling
? Deliver consistent voltage under load
? Handle daily charge/discharge cycles
? Offer longer service life in industrial use
? Can be configured into higher voltage systems easily

US-style deep cycle batteries are particularly popular due to their robust design and reliability in scissor lifts and boom lifts.

Suitable Applications

Our 6V scissor lift batteries are commonly used in:

  • Electric scissor lifts
  • Cherry pickers
  • Boom lifts
  • MEWPs
  • Access platforms
  • Electric utility lifts
  • Industrial floor cleaning machines

Replacing Scissor Lift Batteries

When replacing batteries in powered access equipment, it's important to:

  • Replace the full battery bank at the same time
  • Ensure all batteries are the same capacity and age
  • Check charging system compatibility
  • Inspect cables and connectors

Replacing only one battery in a series can reduce performance and shorten overall battery life.

Not sure how long your current battery bank should last? Read our full guide on how long scissor lift batteries last to understand lifespan, maintenance and replacement signs.

Frequently Asked Questions

What voltage system does my scissor lift use?

Most use 24V, 36V or 48V systems made from multiple 6V batteries. Check your machine’s data plate or manual.

Can I use car batteries in a cherry picker?

No. Automotive batteries are not designed for deep discharge cycling and will fail quickly in access equipment.

How long do scissor lift batteries last?

Typically 3–5 years depending on usage, charging routine and maintenance.

Do you supply batteries for hire fleets?

Yes, we supply batteries for commercial and fleet operators across the UK.
