this one has the off road package.. and different 'lower speed' motors the standard setup is around 11-12 MPH this one is around 6-7 mph typically depending on configuration. :^)
Hey Dan! If you go to your local sheet metal shop that installs HVAC you should be able to pick up an insulated sleeve that is made to go around your diameter pipe. The little bit you need, they will probably give it to you for free. Don't let negative Nelly's get you down. Even though it looks like we get around good, people do not understand what it takes to be us. I feel like I am required to have a smile on my face 24/7 because if I don't everybody thinks I'm crabby. Even if my bottom feels like it's sunburned and spanked and my feet feel like they are in a vice, I'm still required to keep a happy demeanor and a smile on my face. What really sets me off is when somebody asked me "Are You Crabby?" Then, my horns come out. Love the videos, keep them coming!
"are you crabby" LMAO yea ive had someone say that too... i think people expect you to be happy and grateful for everyone else's existence around you.. but having bad days are equal opportunity! ;^)
RE Jim Krocka: YOU SAID IT Brother ! ...Just yesterday I had an able body (who was leaning on MY shoulder) say to me: by the end of the week we are both going to need a drink (because she was heavily bending my ear for a week). I replied "HA ! ...I much rather have a hug than dive into a bottle". ...We always need to be in a good mood and we need to be a good councilor too ! It goes with being in the chair I guess. LOL.
Austin is one awesome dude. MSA took my wife's life after 8 years of symptoms and had the same fighting attitude Austin has. If you get a chance this summer to make it to a car show where his '70 Dart is showing stop by and say "Hi!" to him. Then help bring awareness to this rare and terminal disease by spreading the word!
I really enjoy your comments to people and just all-around videos keep making them have a good day stay well. Some people just walk around in their own little world and that’s all that matters.
I can’t see how any one could have a negative comment towards you or any one for saying something to someone that almost runs you over I’m not quite as nice as you are in your videos but I guess that’s we’re happy pills come in. I really thank you Handel people almost running you over and blocking disabled parking spots quit well you seem to be pritty com when confronting people some of us are not quite as nice but love the videos 👍
Thats amazing intro drone footage on your recent videos Dan ! ...Maybe in a few more months you can apply for a GRANT !!! to start teaching handicap people how to do things. Is there anyone out there who understands the Grant application process and can help Dan secure a government grant for making more videos? 17:28 to 20:00 Well said Dan. Keep rockin the videos the way you do.
I want a Bounder so I will be watching for more. Is there room for a larger motor sprocket that will improve speed by 2 per inch larger . They do Medicare for them but how about options if I pay the difference just wondering. I want the speed to get out of weather or trouble. I carry when I do go out , better tried by 12 then carried by 6 .. I was slammed by a car in an exit from parking lot once lucky I wasn't hurt and didn't see any chair damage . I was over half his car length behind when he tore off tight over the curb like he tried to hit me. Witnesses stopped and asked if I was ok . His car got tons of dents and scratches from my wheelchair . You did RIGHT TELLING THEM TO LOOK BETTER.
when ya order a medicare chair, they come with these slower motors, and different electronics.. youll DEFINITELY want to upgrade to the ST3 motors and in-house electronics. (roughly $1500 out of pocket upgrade) then youll have the 10-12MPH motors, AND the ability to turn off the brakes when you're indoors - as that LOUD clicking gets a bit extreme! someone moved in next to me with a little yappy dog, and anytime i go into the hallway, it starts barking at the clicking sounds my chair makes! and stay safe out there! just cause they're "looking at you" doesn't mean they see you! (apparently) lol
did it happen suddenly one day? usually the lights on the lift buttons going out completely doesn't happen unless there's been an issue for a while.. in this video i take apart a C300 and look at the seat lift... ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-VMcOYU4lMsI.html
Does the faster speed have an effect on the distance you can go on a battery charge? I have a Hoveround XHD and have found it almost impossible to find other parts for it. I have a problem that if I get it out in my yard I almost always get stuck or if not stuck can't go where I need to go. I tried to find some larger off road style tires but wasn't able to find any that I thought would fit. I ended up getting a Trac-Fab to use in the yard and it works great in that so far I haven't got stuck. However, it goes pretty slow which is alright especially when you are doing something like weed eating.
really, really enjoyed the drone shots! Don't let the trollers/haters get you down. Think of them as 'Carl the van kickers' but online versions. (c:\del tree carl) lol take care!
Some guy to,d me to slow it down in a crosswalk the other day. I had the walk sign and he wanted his free turn right, on red. It went like this. ‘Mam, you need to slow down’ Me: ‘sir, you need to slow down too. On them carbs.’ I’ve almost been hit so many times. I know the laws of the road. So close to being killed, with drivers not paying attention or that their turn goes before a pedestrian. When the walk sign is clear.
Would it be more cost effective if you just knocked up your own system as for Ring you have to pay a premium fee for viewing over the tippy tappy internet.
@@FightingMSA things that doctors have actually said to me. What is that? How is this different than muscular dystrophy? How should I know if you need a wheelchair?
Dan what's up with the air conditioning ??? Doesn't your apt have central air??? Sorry for being nosey! Just thought most buildings built now a days have that accutramount! Yes I know I can't spell keep up the videos always waiting on your next one!!!
