Bestcare TiMotion Battery Charging Cradle: The Key to Uninterrupted Care at Home
There is nothing more stressful for a family caregiver than realizing the patient lift battery is dead right when it is needed most. In a busy home care environment, waiting hours for a battery to recharge isn't just an inconvenience—it can disrupt the entire day's routine and leave a loved one stranded. The Bestcare TiMotion Battery Charging Cradle is the essential accessory that solves this problem. By allowing you to charge a battery off the lift, it ensures you always have a fully powered spare ready to go the moment you need it.
This "off-board" charging station is designed specifically for the residential setting where space and reliability are premium. It can be placed on a table or mounted directly to a wall near an outlet, keeping your backup battery organized and out of the way. When your lift's current battery runs low, you simply swap it with the fresh one from the cradle in seconds—no tools, no downtime, and no disruption to your loved one's care. Note: This unit is the cradle only and requires your existing wall charger cord to function.
Key Benefits for the Home:
- Zero Downtime: Allows you to cycle between two batteries so the lift is never out of service for charging.
- Wall-Mount Design: Features pre-drilled holes to mount securely on a wall, keeping counters clear and the battery safe from damage.
- Simple Swap: Designed for one-handed operation—just click the battery in to charge and pull it out when needed.
- Visual Safety: Holds the battery securely upright, letting you easily see the charge status indicator lights (on compatible batteries).
- OEM Reliability: Genuine Bestcare part ensures a perfect fit for TiMotion control systems, protecting your warranty and equipment.

Frequently Asked Questions
Find answers to commonly asked questions below.
-
Is this charging cradle compatible with my specific Bestcare patient lift model?
This cradle is exclusively engineered for Bestcare lifts utilizing TiMotion electronics, specifically models such as the PL400EF, SA400, SA500, and the "New Style" PL400HE manufactured after mid-2017. It is not compatible with older "Legacy" units or the newer "Performance" series, which use different battery shapes and contact points. To verify fit, check your lift's control box; if it features TiMotion branding or components, this is the correct mating interface for your system. Using this cradle with incompatible battery types can damage the charging pins or the battery housing itself.
-
Does this product include the power cord to plug into the wall?
No, this product is solely the docking station (cradle) that holds the battery pack during the charging cycle. It requires the separate WP-TPC-ADP wall charger to function, which plugs into the side of this unit to provide the necessary current. If you do not already own the AC adapter from your original lift purchase, you must acquire one separately to create a complete off-board charging system. This modular design allows you to replace just the plastic base if it becomes damaged without buying the more expensive electronic transformer.
-
Why is an external charging cradle necessary for home patient care?
Having a standalone charging cradle allows for zero-downtime patient care by enabling you to charge a spare battery while the lift is still in use. This "hot-swap" capability is critical for caregivers who cannot afford to wait for a single battery to recharge during high-frequency transfer days. By maintaining a fully charged backup in this cradle, you ensure that your mobility equipment is always ready for emergency transfers or bathroom trips. It effectively eliminates the anxiety of a dead battery leaving a patient stranded in a chair or bed.
-
How difficult is it to set up this charging station in a residential home?
Setting up this cradle is a tool-free process designed for immediate integration into any bedroom or living space. It features a stable, flat base that sits securely on a table or countertop, and it can also be wall-mounted near an outlet to save surface area in tight residential quarters. The "drop-in" design uses gravity to ensure the battery contacts align perfectly with the 24V DC input every time, requiring no complex latches or force. This simplicity is ideal for elderly caregivers who need an accessible, hassle-free way to manage power management.
-
What makes this OEM cradle better than a universal charger?
This is a genuine OEM replacement part, manufactured to the exact tolerances of your Bestcare battery pack to ensure optimal electrical flow and heat dissipation. Unlike generic chargers, it features precise molded guides that prevent the battery from being inserted incorrectly, protecting the sensitive charging terminals from bending or arcing. Using non-OEM charging equipment can void your lift's warranty and potentially overcharge the battery cells, reducing their lifespan. Investing in the factory-correct cradle ensures safety compliance and long-term reliability for your medical equipment.
