Mobile Elevating
WORK PLATFORM

Scissor & Boom Lift Batteries

Aerial Work Platforms (AWP) / Mobile Elevating Work Platforms (MEWP) operate in some of the most demanding conditions - extreme temperatures, high operating currents, and intermittent charging. Safety and downtime avoidance is critical to productivity and staying on schedule. 

Discover offers a complete range of lead and lithium batteries that are non-spill and maintenance-free to enhance equipment safety and productivity.
