There are three reasons why such incidents occur frequently:
First, users don't know much about their journey, and many elderly people don't know how many journeys they want to go to;
Second, users do not understand the attenuation range of the battery. The battery of electric wheelchair has attenuation. For example, two batteries can last 30 kilometers when a new car is used. Of course, they can't run 30 kilometers after one year of use;
Third, when purchasing electric wheelchair, it was misled by merchants. In the era of online shopping, business routines emerge one after another. When consumers buy electric scooters, they ask the business how many kilometers an electric wheelchair can run, and the business will often tell you the theoretical mileage. However, in the actual use process, due to the different road conditions, operating habits and users' weight, even the endurance of different users of the same electric wheelchair is very different.
How far can an electric wheelchair run?
According to big data statistics, 90% of the elderly generally have a daily activity range of 3-8km, so the range of most electric scooters is designed to be 10-20km.
Of course, in order to meet the needs of more disabled groups, some electric scooters are equipped with larger capacity batteries, with longer range and slightly more expensive relative price. In order to solve the problem of range, a few electric wheelchair vehicles are designed with the function of optional battery.
How to prevent power failure halfway?
First of all, when purchasing an electric wheelchair, you should understand the detailed parameters of the electric wheelchair, and roughly estimate the mileage in combination with the battery capacity, motor power, speed, user weight, vehicle weight and other factors of the electric wheelchair.
Secondly, develop the good habit of charging with use. In fact, the daily activities of most users are roughly similar. Then remember to replenish the power for your car after running out every day and keep the battery fully charged at any time. When you go out, you can greatly reduce the possibility of power failure and shutdown.
Third, when traveling far away, please choose public transport or carry a charger with you for your electric wheelchair. Even if there is no electricity on the way, you can find a place to charge for a few hours before walking, which will not be left on the way. However, it is not recommended that the majority of electric wheelchair users drive the electric scooter too far, because the electric wheelchair is slow, 6-8 kilometers per hour. If they go too far, first, they are worried about the lack of endurance, More importantly, riding on the scooter for several hours is not conducive to blood circulation, which is prone to fatigue driving and safety problems.
