Buying Considerations
1. Power Source
Electric (E series, Ei series, Xi series) : Zero emissions, quiet operation, ideal for indoor warehouses. Lithium-ion models support opportunity charging

New: Latest technology (90V lithium-ion, myLinde connectivity, quad mast), full warranty (1-year standard, 4-year/8,000-hour powertrain on HT25T)
Used: Significant savings (used units from $1,138 starting bid to ~$9,600 for well-maintained electric models). However, used units may have high hours (8,000–11,000+ hours typical).
3. Key Specifications
Load capacity: 3,500 – 8,818+ lbs
Lift height: 14–17+ feet
Mast type: Triplex (3-stage) common; quad mast available on new E18-E20

1-year full warranty
4-year / 8,000-hour powertrain warranty
