Rescue tool battery capacity explained: Watch the marble game!
How long can I work with my battery-operated rescue tool? We are being asked this question a lot, especially since the launch of our new Pentheon Series last year. In the July 2020 blog we took a look at this topic, comparing a battery to a bowl of Skittles (your candy will last longer if you eat just one each time instead of grabbing a handful) and also to the fuel tank of a car (the same amount of fuel will get you more mileage in an energy efficient vehicle). Check out the blog about the working time of battery-powered rescue tools for more details.
As questions about batteries keep on reaching us, we decided to show you a third example. In this video we explain the relationship between battery capacity and the run time of your rescue tools. Take a look at our marble game now.
Conclusion
It’s not only a matter of how many marbles you start out with. Just like it’s not only the volume of a fuel tank that defines a car’s range. It’s about having a smart design of your marble run, your car and most importantly your rescue tools that enables you to get the most out of them. That’s how you succeed!
