Electric Pallet Jack Batteries & Chargers
Sumachay electric pallet jacks run on sealed lithium traction batteries — 24 V on the SESR15 and SESR15-N, and 48 V on the SELR20, SELR20+, and SELR20-S. Every new machine ships with a matching plug-in charger that runs off a standard 120 V North American wall outlet, so there is no separate charger to buy and no special wiring. Lithium (LiFePO4 / lithium-ion) chemistry means no watering, no acid, no memory effect, and safe opportunity charging on breaks. Need a replacement battery or charger? Order the correct pack for your model from our Parts & Batteries collection, or request a quote with your model and serial number. Note: Sumachay pallet jacks are 24 V or 48 V — we do not make a 36 V unit.
Pallet Jack Batteries & Chargers — At a Glance
Verified battery voltage, chemistry, charging, and replacement details for Sumachay electric pallet jacks.
Battery Voltage & Chemistry
The SESR15 and narrow SESR15-N use a 24 V, 20 Ah lithium LiFePO4 traction battery. The SELR20 and SELR20-S use a 48 V, 30 Ah lithium-ion battery, and the SELR20+ uses a 48 V, 15 Ah LiFePO4 battery. All are sealed lithium packs — no watering, no acid top-ups, no off-gassing, and no memory effect.
Charging & Included Charger
Every machine ships with a matching plug-in charger that runs off a standard 120 V North American wall outlet — no special wiring or dedicated charging room required. A full charge from empty takes roughly 4 to 6 hours depending on model, and the lithium chemistry supports opportunity charging (topping up on breaks) without shortening battery life.
Runtime & Battery Life
A full charge covers a typical shift of normal warehouse duty on any of these models. Lithium packs deliver hundreds of full charge cycles; a gradual reduction in run-time per charge over years of use is normal battery wear rather than a fault. Keep the machine on its matching charger between shifts for the most consistent runtime.
Replacement Batteries & Parts
Replacement batteries, spare chargers, and wear parts are stocked in our Parts & Batteries collection. Order the pack that matches your model's voltage (24 V or 48 V), or contact Sumachay with your model and serial number and we will confirm the correct battery and charger.
Choosing the Right Battery & Charger
Every Sumachay electric pallet jack arrives ready to run with its lithium battery and matching charger. Here is how to pick the right voltage and keep it powered.
24 V or 48 V — which do you need?
The 24 V SESR15 / SESR15-N suit lighter 1,500 kg (3,300 lb) duty at a lower entry price. The 48 V SELR20, SELR20+, and SELR20-S carry up to 2,000 kg (4,400 lb) and hold up better under heavier, more continuous use. Match the voltage to the machine — a 24 V pack and a 48 V pack are not interchangeable.
Why lithium (LiFePO4 / Li-ion)
Sealed lithium batteries are maintenance-free — no watering, no acid, no ventilated charging room, and no memory effect. They charge faster than lead-acid, tolerate partial top-ups, and hold voltage more steadily through a shift, which is why every Sumachay electric pallet jack ships with one.
The charger is included
There is no separate charger to buy for a new machine. Each one comes with a matching plug-in charger for a standard 120 V outlet, and lithium chemistry lets you opportunity-charge on breaks without harming the pack. Keep the supplied charger with its machine so voltages always match.
Replacing a battery or charger
When a pack finally reaches end of life, order the correct-voltage replacement from our Parts & Batteries collection. If you are unsure which pack fits, contact us with your model and serial number and we will confirm the right battery and charger.
Not sure which pack fits?
Sumachay pallet jacks use 24 V (SESR15 / SESR15-N) or 48 V (SELR20 / SELR20+ / SELR20-S) lithium batteries — not 36 V. Contact us with your model and serial number and we will confirm the correct replacement battery and charger.

FAQ: Electric Pallet Jack Batteries & Chargers
Common questions about Sumachay pallet jack battery voltage, lithium chemistry, charging, and replacements.
It depends on the model. The SESR15 and narrow SESR15-N use a 24 V lithium battery, while the SELR20, SELR20+, and SELR20-S use a 48 V lithium battery. Sumachay does not make a 36 V pallet jack — the range is 24 V or 48 V.
Yes. Every Sumachay electric pallet jack uses a sealed lithium traction battery — LiFePO4 on the SESR15, SESR15-N, and SELR20+, and lithium-ion on the SELR20 and SELR20-S. Lithium is maintenance-free: no watering, no acid, no memory effect, and no ventilated charging room.
Yes. Every new machine ships with a matching plug-in charger that runs off a standard 120 V North American wall outlet. There is no separate charger to buy and no special wiring — just plug it into any standard outlet.
A full charge from empty takes roughly 4 to 6 hours depending on the model — for example about 4 to 5 hours on the 24 V SESR15 and around 5 to 6 hours on the 48 V SELR20. Because the batteries are lithium, you can also opportunity-charge on breaks without harming the pack.
A full charge covers a typical shift of normal warehouse duty. Over the long term, lithium packs deliver hundreds of charge cycles; a gradual reduction in run-time per charge after years of use is normal battery wear rather than a fault. Keeping the machine on its charger between shifts gives the most consistent runtime.
Yes. Lithium (LiFePO4 / lithium-ion) batteries tolerate partial top-ups, so charging on breaks or between orders does not shorten their life the way it can with lead-acid. That makes them well suited to multi-shift operations.
No. Sumachay electric pallet jacks are built around 24 V (SESR15 / SESR15-N) or 48 V (SELR20 / SELR20+ / SELR20-S) lithium systems, so we do not stock a 36 V pallet jack battery. Order the 24 V or 48 V pack that matches your model, and contact us if you are unsure which one you need.
Replacement batteries, spare chargers, and wear parts are available from our Parts & Batteries collection. Order the pack matching your model's voltage, or request a quote with your model and serial number and we will confirm the correct battery and charger.
