Description
The MK 8G24 battery is a 12 V group 24 sealed gel cell for larger mobility scooters and power chairs. Westin Healthcare sells it, delivers it, and can swap it in Brampton and the Greater Toronto Area. MK prints 73.6 Ah at the 20-hour rate and 63.0 Ah at the 5-hour rate. Most of those devices run two 12 V batteries in series for 24 V, so you usually buy two and replace both at the same time.
Who this battery is for
This is the sealed group 24 gel, not the AGM 8A24 and not a 22NF. Quantum and other chair makers name group 24 gel on some bases. It is not a U1 travel-scooter cell and it is not the flooded MK DC24. Bring the old group 24 or a photo of the stamp and the T881 posts.
Call (905) 451-7743 if the stamp is worn. We match gel to gel before we send a pair.
MK 8G24 gel battery chemistry and pairs
MK prints the 8G24 as a valve-regulated gelled-electrolyte battery, not an absorbed glass mat. The gel family sheets rate it non-spillable by DOT, ICAO, and IATA definitions. A gel cell wants a gel-capable charger. Do not use a charger that is set only for flooded or only for AGM unless the charger maker says it has a gel profile.
Westin sells the 8G24T881 as a single 12 V battery. Order two when the device takes a pair, and keep the pair matched in chemistry and amp-hour rating.

Gel group 24 or AGM group 24: which sibling fits
Stay on gel if the old cell is gel. If the old cell is AGM, see the MK 8A24. A 22NF gel tray takes the MK 8G22NF. A 22NF AGM tray takes the MK 8A22NF. The flooded group 24 is the MK DC24, a wet cell, not a sealed mobility tray.
Delivery and setup in Brampton and the GTA
Westin's own team delivers this battery across Brampton and the Greater Toronto Area. When you want the pair swapped at home, we lift the seat or the battery box, fit the new pair, and take the old cells for recycle. Book that swap on the battery replacement page or by calling (905) 451-7743.
We have three stores in the Brampton and Toronto area if you would rather bring the old group 24 in. Same-day replacement is offered on that battery replacement service; purchased batteries that ship without a technician are delivered on a scheduled date.
Each cell is about 52 lb. A pair is a freight-weight carton. If the order is going outside the GTA, ask us for a shipping quote. Inside Toronto and the GTA, White-Glove Delivery (bring-in, unwrap, test, take packaging away) is described on the shipping policy. Any charge is confirmed on your order.

Frequently asked questions
Is The 8G24 Gel Or AGM?
The MK 8G24 is gel. MK prints valve-regulated gelled electrolyte. The AGM group 24 is the 8A24. Do not mix them in one pair.
What Size Is A Group 24 Mobility Battery?
The MK 8G24 is a group 24 gel, about 10.9 in long, 6.6 in wide, and 9.3 in tall, at 73.6 Ah (20 hr) and about 52 lb. A 22NF is shorter.
Do I Replace Both Batteries?
Yes, when the chair runs a 24 V pair. Use two batteries of the same type, chemistry, and amp-hour rating. Westin sells the 8G24 as a single 12 V cell. Order two.
Gel Vs AGM Battery For A Scooter?
Gel (8G24) wants a gel-capable charger. AGM (8A24) usually charges on a sealed-lead profile. Match the old cell. Do not mix gel and AGM in one pair.
What Is The Warranty?
East Penn prints a 12-month free-replacement column, with a shorter term in full electric-vehicle use. Westin Healthcare processes the manufacturer claim.
