FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
What kind of chair do I have?
Scooter
A mobility scooter has three or four wheels, a flat area for the feet, and a handlebar to steer. The levers that control forward and reverse are located on the handle bar. All scooters are battery powered. Two batteries are stored under the seat and are charged via a separate battery charger.
Power chair
Power chairs, generally, have four or six wheels contacting the ground. The drive wheels are typically somewhat larger than the castor wheels. Front wheel drive models have swivel casters in the rear and anti-tip wheels up front. Center wheel drive power chairs have swivel castors at both front and rear for a six-wheel layout. These units are controlled by a joystick style of controller.
What's the difference between a Scooter and Power Chair
The Difference
Scooters are typically portable and used for shopping or hard surface use. The steering radius is much larger than that of the power chairs so they typically are not used in a home where turning space can be minimal. These typically break down into five or six components that are easily stored in a trunk or the back of a van.
Power chairs, on the other hand, are excellent for maneuvering within tight areas such as in a home. They require ramps or lifts to enter and exit a building and special lifts for transporting in a vehicle. Those type of power chairs with larger drive wheels are more adept to outside use.
