More Details
The power assisted wheels have an electric motor integrated into the wheel hub. When the wheelchair user applies force to the push rims, the motor engages and assists to propel the wheelchair. A small bracket is attached to the wheelchair frame to allow the powered wheels to be secured to the wheelchair. The batteries and wheels are removed without the need for tools. The batteries form the inner part of the wheel hub. Each wheel hub houses one 24 volt battery. The control panel is on the exterior surface of the battery. The panel includes a battery level indicator and a push button to control the power level.
The e-motion wheels have 3 different power levels. The sensitivity on the left and right wheels can be adjusted independently.
