Frequently asked questions...
Are power add-ons compatible with all manual wheelchairs?
Most power assist devices are designed to fit most manual wheelchairs, but compatibility depends on the model and frame design. It's important to check sizing requirements or consult our team for guidance on the best fit for your chair.
the power assist manufacturers we use offer universal fitting kits or model specific kits so the power add-ons can be fitted to most makes and models of chairs.
How far can I travel on a single charge?
Most wheelchair power add-ons offer a range of 10 to 20 miles per charge, depending on the model, terrain, weight, and usage. Always check the product specs for exact range estimates.
Are wheelchair power add-ons heavy?
No, most modern power assist devices are designed to be lightweight and portable, often ranging from 12 to 25 pounds. They’re easy to attach, remove, and store when not in use.
Can I use a power add-on indoors?
Yes! Many power assist systems are designed to be smooth and maneuverable for indoor use, including tight spaces and corners. Look for models such as the permobil smartdrive or empluse wheeldrives, with responsive controls or speed settings optimized for indoor environments.
Do I need tools to install a power assist device?
Most power assist add-ons are designed for tool-free or minimal-tool installation. When we supple a power add-on device we ensure its set up just right so it can be clipped on or off quickly, allowing you to switch between manual and powered modes easily.
Are these devices covered by insurance?
Yes insurers do insure power add-ons and assist devices. We use Mark Bates insurance who will insure a power add-on up to 8mph. Its not a requirment, but we usually advise purchasing insurance as it covers both yourself and your add-on should any problems arise.
Can I try a power assist device?
Yes, of course! We would always recommend trying a power add-on before purchasing to ensure its suitable for you.
