Why go electric?

  • JMS Powered Access are committed to providing a full range of access equipment and have recently added another 3 Snorkel lithium-ion powered scissor lifts to their powered access fleet – the Snorkel S3970RTE, the Snorkel S3370RTE and the Snorkel S2755RTE.

  • These Snorkel scissor lifts are powered by lithium-ion battery packs. They can operate for at least 8 hours between charges and the batteries last up to 20 times longer than lead acid batteries.

  • Electric scissor lifts are ideal for jobs that require working indoors or in residential and city centre locations as they produce very little noise and most importantly, emit zero emissions.

  • Innovations in technology have enabled electric scissor lifts to rival the performance of their diesel counterparts by delivering a full day on one charge (and recharging overnight) as well as providing strong lift capacities. 

  • Electric scissor lifts reduce the dependency on hydraulic oils making them cost effective and more environmentally friendly.

  • JMS supplies a number of rough terrain electric scissor lifts as well as those from Snorkel, such as the Haulotte HS18 E PRO 18m scissor lift, Dingli JCPT2223DC 22m scissor lift, and Skyjack 6832RTE 11.58m scissor lift.
