When to Choose a Lithium PMA
Lightweight lithium battery-powered PMAs are ideal when the device needs to be folded or carried frequently. Common use cases include:
- Transporting the PMA by car
- Bringing the PMA on a plane
- Carrying the PMA over high obstacles such as a flight of steps
When to Choose an SLA PMA
If weight is not a key concern, sealed lead-acid (SLA) battery-powered PMAs may be the better option. Key advantages include:
- Much lower fire risk compared with lithium PMAs
- More stability due to heavier weight and a lower centre of gravity
- Greater power and capability when handling obstacles such as low kerbs and MRT train-to-platform gaps
