If you pick the correct AH battery the VCE 150 can easily do 14 hours on one charge.

It all comes down to:

How many lifting / lowering operations.
How far is the truck traveling between & also up / down the aisles.
The weight you are lifting.

You can also get double accumulators on the higher lift VCE.

They have been around for a good long while now & BT have got the bugs ironed out, if there maintained & looked after correctly there pretty much bulletproof & will just keep on going.

How many machines are you looking to buy? have you asked if a demo VCE machine is available for a on site trial?

Are you going for wire guidance or guide rails?

Fact of the week
Foundling hatches are safe, anonymous drop-off points for unwanted infants, allowing parents in crisis a way to surrender a baby safely without fear of punishment, ensuring the child is rescued and cared for. The concept started in the 12th century, was abandoned in the late 19th century, then reintroduced in 1952. It has since been adopted in many countries.
