Mission: find a modern up-to-date chair that climbs hills.
Rules: it must be used in the patient's POS and anything else is fringe benefits
so...
A biggie battery,
able to climb steep hills,
Safety on a driveway on a hill,
navigating a bus
*None* of these meet Govt. regs.
You can't take what they give you and upgrade.
So it behooves a careful consumer to see what's out there.
It would also help to temporarily gain 200 lbs., but failing that, the choices are very limited (to little old ladies navigating a park, not grizzled guys trudging through snow)
Plus, bugs attack this keyboard on a regular basis; it must have an irresistible odor for bugs.
Bottom line, ignore typos.
K0800
POV vs PWC
POV=dinky scooter,
PWC Barcalounger (try not to laugh)

When descending from a sidewalk to a lumpy street in the winter, clearance is a real good thing to have.
Barcaloungers have trouble with this, and I don't know about scooters.
Three-wheeled ones (we're talking really dinky) might imperil your life;
four ('nuther biggie bug) (BRB)
Are terrible on buses, so I've been told.
(You need to do a 180 in a very narrow aisle possibly occupied by a fat woman with a shopping cart)
If the aisle is empty damn near anything will turn eventually.
Until you need to leave...
OK 3-wheel it is.
K0800-PWC three wheeler.
Speed is no biggie, who gives a rat's ass, but longevity is a must.
Avoid anything with "travel" in the name.
Plusssss...
(This gets tricky)
Don't lift weights, at all ever, before the qualifying trials.
It might help to bulk up (seriously).
*wear* the weights, don't lift them
Unfortunately I'd need to bulk up too much and a chair would be the last thing I'd need, more like a bypass and a respirator....so ok abandon all hope of getting anything but dinky.
Scooters were some senator's idea to save a buck, I swear.
You're looking at ladies' butts, while *I* drool over sexier chairs....I don't know.
Mid wheel, front-wheel, rear-wheel, it's all on the fucking test.
You're supposed to know.

| Whut? (duh...uhm) |
Bus, hill....
hill vs bus?
uh,
The bull they sling about "front wheel" is exaggerated, in my opinion...
it's, uhm, horrible, but the others don't seem better.
Don't live on a hill, don't go anywhere,
stay home (the end)

| You're not getting it, sitting on a driveway on a hill (leaning left and down) A narrow base is the pathway to hell. |
There's a commercial for "HWD" on their page, all tech sucks except their "HWD" chair, on hills.
What do I know...
FWD is sucky going up a hill, and can be disastrous going down hills.
RWD is impossibly hard uphill on a manual chair unless you go backwards (in reverse)
But a powered (with charged batteries, not dying) RWD might be nice.
And...
The original batteries of any dinky chair, die a lot.
Buy aftermarket. Bribe the salesman (I'm not sure)
Pie-in-sky chairs are for the firemen, first-responders, nurses and their ilk.

| Classless society (rofl) |
Group one Hoi polloi
Group 2,3 (? TBA)
Group 4 (Mr. President)
group one, a scooter, or a RWD chair. But things being what they are, chairs manufactured in China are prolly scarce.
"RWD" = Luxury item? TBD (I don't know yet)

| one-way trips to bathrooms |
The "ext" version is 20ah
Well let's imagine it, I'm in the mood for horror...
Going *down* if the back wheels lift up, the fronts have no brakes.
going up, no steering.
Weeping, gnashing teeth.
There are (most probably) two or so models to choose from dealers, They just don't tell you which models, unless you happen to know a dealer.
I don't.
If,
in order to sell more models,
a factory made a group-4 and labeled it group one,
that would be nice.
Wheels that don't leave the ground as much, batteries that don't die as much, for fat people who aren't blimps.
But to put it in language you'll understand,
McDonald's cheese burger (plain)
vs
Moby-Jack from Jack in the box.
Which one has a deal that includes Fries?
There's a disconnect between what people buy and what people use.

People buying this stuff, buy it usually for a disabled parent.
The parent could prolly, ya know, fucking type, but no.
We're left with the daughter's impression.
If you're a 98-year-old 98-pound parent, please write more reviews.
Eat something.
