Power That Lasts: Understanding Battery Life on the ScherGain Drop Pan

ScherGain drop pan solution system and battery

When it comes to testing for combine loss, the last thing you need is to fight with unreliable batteries. The ScherGain Drop Pan Solution System is built to make harvest testing fast, accurate, and headache-free, and that includes the power source behind it. Let’s talk the ScherGain Drop Pan battery life, maintenance, and what you can expect from the lithium-ion battery that runs your drop pan.

Long-Lasting, Low-Maintenance Power

Each ScherGain Drop Pan comes equipped with a high-quality lithium-ion battery. It’s specifically selected for durability and consistency, powering your drop pan only when you’re actively running a test. That means it’s not draining power all day long, and for most users, a single battery will last the entire harvest season without issue.

Charge It Once, Use It Often

The system also comes with a compatible charger, so you’re always in control. Because the battery is only in use while you’re performing tests, you’re not constantly recharging it like you would with tools or electronics that run all day. With normal use and proper care, the battery is more than capable of going the distance.

Pro Tip: Unplug It Daily

To extend the life of your drop pan battery, make it a habit to unplug the battery at the end of each day. It’s a small step that prevents slow drain and helps keep the system in top condition. Taking that minute at the end of your day saves you from frustration later on.

Cold Weather Caution

One of the most important things to remember: lithium-ion batteries don’t like freezing temperatures. If a battery still has a charge and is stored in freezing conditions, it should be okay. However, if your battery swells during the off-season, that’s a sign it likely froze, and freezing can permanently damage the cell structure. To avoid that, store the battery in a temperature-controlled environment and always unplug it when not in use.

Built to Keep You Testing, Not Troubleshooting

Simplicity is the backbone of the ScherGain System. From the rugged drop pan to the smart use of battery power, everything is designed to work hard—without needing constant attention.

Reliable power. Efficient use. Straightforward maintenance. That’s what you get with the ScherGain Drop Pan Solution System.
