6.1.4 Autonomy of the wheelchair
The autonomy of your wheelchair on flat ground is about 25 km at nominal operation. This
autonomy is subject to the influence of various factors. In practice the road condition, inclina-
tions, driving mode, use of lights, tire pressure, total transported weight, outside temperature,
etc. are some of the elements to be considered.
The way the batteries are charged has a considerable influence on the energy consummation
and thus affects the rapidity of discharge.
Attention: at 10 km/h, a distance of 25 km is overcome in about two hours.
When driving outdoors it is recommended to assure that a sufficient amount of energy is available to
return to the point of departure.
