The BT VCE 150A has been around for a while now, it's a 48 volt truck & it has a hydraulic accumulator that stores pressure to help lift the load & cab.
Basically when you lower the accumulator stores pressure ready for the next lifting application.
We still get the odd safety campaign come through for the VCE but they dont cost the customer anything as BT warranty pays for those.

My tip for VNA is always get the biggest AH capacity battery specified for the truck in question.

Do you need a man up truck or could you manage with a man down truck?

There is the brand new BT Vector R man down truck, its only just come out & its based on the latest RRE Reflex, its the replacement for the old BT Veflex, the new Vector R also has a similar hydraulic accumulator set up to reduce lifting effort.

A BT Vector R VRE 150 might be worth a look if you want to also look at man down trucks as well.

Fact of the week
The use of "hello" as a telephone greeting is attributed to Thomas Edison. He is said to have suggested it as a simpler alternative to other greetings, such as "Do I get you?" or "Are you there?".
