We have a battery operated chair lift for seniors at our church. I am looking to replace the on board batteries with a DC power supply. The unit has 2 small 12 volt batteries in series to provide 24Vdc to power the chair. The motor is a 24Vdc 4 amp motor. I had put in a 24Vdc 200 watt power supply and it does run the chair up and down the staircase without issue. However, this configuration will not take the load of a person sitting on the chair to bring them up. I am trying to determine what wattage power supply I would need in place of the two 12 volt batteries.
This unit is not used that often and battery replacement is an expense the church cannot always support. I am seeking the DC power supply solution to have the chair available anytime it might be required. Any input from this forum would be appreciated to point me in the right direction. Please let me know if you require more information
