Hi Nicky
Thanks for this.
We are going to try and challenge the report but I suspect nothing much
will happen. We agreed to use Drager leads and their (more expensive)
batteries before they would investigate. I suspect at the very least we
will revert to using cheaper batteries which appear to be just as
effective.

Dear Ann,
We have been having lots of battery issues too over the last year. We
have 4 trolleys each with a Ti500 incubator on them. Between them we had
6 new batteries installed last year and currently have issues with one
trolley at the moment.
We keep all of our trolleys plugged into mains supply when not out in
use. They are all set to 37C.
When they are out in use two have the facility to be plugged directly
into "mains" supply power in our ambulances. This provides both power
and charge to the battery so I am told. The other two although attached
to ambulance power do not charge when in the vehicles but simply provid
ethe power to the incubator.
After talking to one of the Medical Physics guys they think that
perhaps Drager might have swappred their battery supplier - have you
heard anything along these lines?
We would appreciate any feedback / comments from others as to their
experiences with the Ti500.
best wishes,
Nicky
