The Blue Cactus Rechargeable Battery for Reclining Furniture - 2500mAh Battery, 2-Pin Furniture Connector - Charger Not Included - Replacement Pack with LCD Display for Sofa, Couch, Recliner Chair

Easy to install, easy to check the voltage, works as described. We received it a week ago, I charged it fully and installed it. We have a new recliner and I have been running it back and forth more often than normal. I have charged my iPhone twice on the USB port. The phone was less than 50% and I charged it fully each time. I have also charged my laptop three times through the USB port, and sometimes leave it plugged in while I work on it.When I charge the Ibook it reduces the battery percentage noticeable, however after all that the battery is now at 33%. I have only charged it the one time and plan on letting it drop to 25% before recharging. At this rate that will be a few more days before it reaches 25%. When I don't use the USB it only drops a few percent per day.I believe after I have had this for a while I will be able to get a good 3 or 4 weeks between charges if I don't use the USB port. I may try to update this review to let you know how long It lasts in a few months.I really don't know if it is a value for the money so I gave that a 3 star. I have nothing to compare it to, as this is the first furniture battery I have ever bought. I'm not sure how a more expensive battery could work better, unless it is higher amperage. (which would increase the price)Yes this is a good battery. I would advise you to disregard the one star reviews. You can't go wrong with this.

So far, this battery is working well. Lasts us about 8 days before a recharge is needed. It has a low battery warning but if it goes off the battery is dead; does give much warning. It takes 5-6 hours to charge. I also bought 2500 mah as back up to use during charging.

Took awhile to charge but we have it connected to our double love seat reclinersSeems to be working well

Holds a charge well. We do not use a lot but have only needed to recharge every two or three months. I have been please with the quality of this product and how long it holds a charge.

First let me first say, there was an issue with the compatibility of the battery with my furniture's on/off light. It would hold a full charge for about a week but would then drain quickly. Apparently, this is uncommon, and I just had the misfortune of pairing the two items together.However, Blue Cactus's customer service was extremely patient and helpful while I reached out to the furniture manufacturer, and we were eventually able to come up with a satisfactory solution. It was refreshing to work with a company that stood behind their product... so, for that, they get five stars :-)Even though they had offered a full refund, I was determined to make the batteries work because the back of my furniture is visible, and the 90-degree plug is more aesthetically pleasing. The only thing I might change is to make the cord that plugs into the furniture a few inches longer to have more flexibility in placing the battery under the furniture out of view. Other than that, they're well-made and I hope to get many years of use from them.

Works exactly as it should. I was very skeptical about buying this battery for an electrically operated recliner. We do not have any floor plugs where these are located, (middle of living room), so leaving cords plugged in was a non-starter. When the chairs were delivered, I had already fully charged the batteries, (we have two chairs, so bought two batteries). I put the chairs on their sides and was able to fairly easily remove the 110v cord and adapter which interfaces with the wiring in the chairs themselves. I then mounted the new battery pack in the underside of the chair with the charging unit mounted on the back, under the Velcro-attached back fabric covering it fully. When I want to charge it, I simply lift up the fabric and plug the units into a wall outlet. I have used the chair for 2 full weeks, using it from 2-6 cycles per day, and it currently shows 75% remaining charge. I would imagine I could get away with charging this once a month, although I plan on charging them every other week as depleting the battery fully would likely be ill-advised. Note: We have not used the USB charge port in the chair which I was unable to disconnect unless I really, REALLY wanted to. I have been an electrician for over 40 years and the installation was pretty easy for me; if you are handy with basic tools and can think a bit outside of the box, this should be a fairly simple task to complete. Additionally, the connectors on the unit I purchased were exactly correct for my chair, and included in the package were a couple of extensions and Y-cables which I did not need. I would heed the advice from the seller - you need to ensure you are ordering the unit with the correct connectors for your specific task as they state that incorrect connectors is the primary reason for returned products. My $.02 worth.

One battery seemed fine of the pair, but the dual second battery wouldn't hold a charge for more than 15 minutes. Very disappointing for the price. I was so hopeful this would be our answer for no unsightly cords. But no such luck. And no number to call for customer service. 🙁
