There are two different power options for stair lift systems: A/C and BOS. The type of stair lift electronics that you choose is mainly just a personal preference, but sometimes depends on the area that you live in.
A/C Stair Lift Systems
The A/C stair lift systems are plugged into a standard household electrical outlet. A/C stair lift electronics are more convenient for stair lift systems users that don't want to worry about changing a battery, however A/C stair lift systems will not run if the power goes out in your home.
BOS Stair Lift Systems
BOS stands for Battery Operated System. BOS stair lift electronics run on a battery that recharges itself when the stair lift system is not being used. The battery lasts for 1-2 years. The BOS stair lift system is useful for areas more susceptible to power outages. Should a power outage occur in your home, BOS stair lift electronics batteries will run for about 10 trips.
