but you can only manage the 25 miles if i cover flat stretches in a wheelchair. i drive a senior citizen's vehicle with a 200 ampere a 12 volt agm battery i live on the mountain, if i can cover 5 miles with them i'll go a long way because they aren't allowed to over-discharge the batteries, in winter the distance is even shorter for me, and the my gel batteries were regularly broken after a year, they had 75 amps. I'm not a fan of gel batteries.
Lithium Iron Phosphate would be good, as it would be getting away from a chemistry that is prone to abuse, but remember that the batteries aren't always there just for the stored energy, that much weight down low also lowers the chair's center of gravity making it more stable. Abuse is a major killer of lead-acid. Make a habit of discharging them more than 50% and/or not promptly recharging fully at least every night, and they don't last very long at all.
i would like to have lithium batteries, but some say you shouldn't put too much strain on them, others say protect them from the cold, otherwise they lose power very quickly, in winter i drive my mobile too. i'm not allowed to use the bus or train for safety reasons, and i don't have a car, and if i have to wait for the driver, i've taken care of things myself.
Hola que tal? quieria preguntarles, donde puedo conceguer el Joystick de esta silla OTTOBOCK B600?? Por favor Es ya funciona a medias!! desde ya muchas graccias!!!
I just received new batteries for my quantum 6000. I was told to charge them for 14 hrs. the chair was already on 100%. I rode around the house for a little and it was on 98% when I started charging. Do I let it charge for the 14 hrs even though the charger is blinking, indicating it's almost fully charged or do I unplug it whenever it reaches green light? (my charger doesn't automatically shut off, when full charge )
ask your dealer what you can do maybe you can get a charger from the medical supply store where it switches off automatically it doesn't have to be new, it should just work. always load after a short distance.
When do you foresee using LiFePO4 batteries? 1/2 the weight, longer life expectancy, less internal resistence, with more distance capability! Get rid of the lead
SCS Page 3 February 2016 TWIN CITIES DOCTORS RECEIVE GRANT TO STUDY PROMISIN G THERAPY FOR SPINAL CORD INJURIES SCS INTRODUCTION What follows is a summary of the grant that was awarded to Dr. Ann Parr of the University of Minnesota Stem Cell Institute. This will be a collaborative effort between Spinal Cord Society and Dr. Parr’s lab. The details and outline of the project will be presented in the March issue of the SCS Newsletter and will involve some chemistry involving the rose bengal/scar ablation treatment along with the OPC cell line from Dr. Parr’s lab. The $125,000 received by Dr. Parr was part of the Omnibus Higher Educaton Bill to support spinal cord injury and traumatic brain injury. Her project is one of six projects pertaining to spinal cord injury and is further discussed on page 4. SCS funds will be leveraged with this grant.-RAS Project Title: Oligodendrocyte Progenitor Cells and Scar Ablation for the Treatment of Chronic Spinal Cord Injury Principal Investigator: Ann M. Parr, MD, PhD Institutional Affiliation: University of Minnesota Grant Award: $125,000 Project Purpose: This project focuses on the critical need for new treatment paradigms for patients with chronic spinal cord injuries. One major barrier to regeneration after SCI is the formation of the glial scar. This project will use a novel method for neatly ablating glial scar tissue in chronic SCI which, in combination with other therapies, shows significant promise in improving locomotor outcomes in individuals with previously untrcatable. chronic SCI. The research team has successfully removed existing glial scars in chronically contused rat spinal cords using a rose Bengal-based phototoxic approach. This represents the most promising novel therapeutic approach to scar ablation in the central nervous system for chronic SCI. With a focus on translation to the clinic, proposed methods are compatible with cGMP manufacturing processes to enable seamless clinical translation of the research. This innovative project could provide pre-clinical data for an application to the FDA for a Phase I clinical trial. Copyright SCS 2016 All rights reserved
Wow! Nice chair! Great demo!

How would one convert batteries to solar??
