Hello Everyone!
My EMS agency has several XTS1500s in our ambulances. The problem is that they are rarely used, and almost always sit in the charger. We currently use NiCad non-Impres batteries. I would say none of them hold a charge for more than a few minutes, thats if they even charge. If we were to switch to Impres batteries, would the batteries last longer? These lasted for maybe 2 or 3 years with little to no use. The radios are hardly ever used, maybe just for an hour or two (mostly receive only) every few months. All of our mobile chargers are Impres compatible and are wired to always be on.
Thanks!
