Most important characteristics:

Inogen One G2 Battery (24 cell)
One of the most important aspects of a portable oxygen concentrator is the battery. After all, without the battery you're not very mobile! The Inogen One oxygen concentrators are very energy efficient, so they last long on one battery. However you might need an extra battery, for example if you're planning on taking a long flight. In that case you can choose between the small 12 cell battery (BA-200) or this large 24 cell battery (BA-224). You have to consider that the 12 cell battery is lighter, but has a shorter running time. This 24 cell battery lasts longer, but is also heavier.
Charge and running time
| Battery | Recharge time | Running time | Weight | |||
| 12 cell (BA-200) | +/- 4 hours | up to 5 hours | 700 g. | |||
| 24 cell (BA-224) | +/- 8 hours | up to 10 hours | 1 kg. |
To charge an extra battery more easily, you could consider buying an external battery charger.
