What is a powered add-on?
A powered add-on for a wheelchair is a device that can be attached to a manual wheelchair to provide powered mobility. It's designed to assist individuals who may have difficulty propelling a manual wheelchair on their own due to physical limitations.
There are several types of powered add-ons available:
Power Assist Wheels
These are motorised wheels that can be attached to a manual wheelchair. They provide an extra boost of power when propelling the chair, making it easier for the user to manoeuvre uphill, over uneven terrain, or for extended distances.
Power Units with Joystick Controls
These systems transform a manual wheelchair into a power wheelchair. They include a motor and battery pack that powers the wheels, along with a joystick control for steering and manoeuvring.
Attachable Scooter Modules
Some devices can convert a manual wheelchair into a powered vehicle. These typically have a battery, motor, controls, and may include additional features like storage compartments.
