Description

Lightweight Folding Electric Wheelchair That Travels Easily

The Explorer Lite lightweight folding electric wheelchair weighs just 17 kg with the battery fitted, so lifting it into a car boot is genuinely a one-person job. It folds down to 33 cm deep, which means it slides into a boot or a cupboard instead of dominating the hallway. Because the frame is aircraft-grade aluminium alloy, that low weight does not come at the cost of everyday sturdiness.

This portable wheelchair suits errands, appointments and holidays alike. The tight 55 cm turning radius lets you pivot in small kitchens and shop aisles, while the 360-degree joystick keeps steering simple and precise. When you let go of the joystick, an electromagnetic brake holds the chair in place, which matters on a slope or a ramp. In addition, the battery lifts out, so you can carry it indoors and charge it without parking the chair beside the plug.

A Travel Wheelchair Built for Everyday Freedom

Twin 190 W brushed motors move this folding wheelchair at up to 8 km/h and pull it up gradients of as much as 13 degrees. Because the 7-inch front and 9-inch rear honeycomb tyres never puncture, there is no pump to pack and no tube to repair after a kerb.

A 24 V 6 Ah lithium battery covers 12 to 15 km on a charge and refills in five to seven hours overnight. The seat measures a compact 40 cm across and the armrests and footrests adjust to suit you. Overall, this portable wheelchair trades bulk for real freedom and still carries up to 110 kg.

Your questions, answered

What is the maximum user weight?
110 kg.
Can it go up kerbs?
It handles small lips and ramps, but like all power chairs it isn't built to climb a normal kerb. Use a dropped kerb or a ramp.
Can I claim it from my medical aid?
It depends on your medical aid and plan. We give you a quote with the NAPPI code and our practice number so you can check with your scheme, and most customers pay and then claim back. Medical aid help.

Delivery is free on orders over R1 500, anywhere in South Africa. Check the estimated arrival date near the Add to Cart button, or ask us about your area.
What warranty does it come with?
The frame has a lifetime warranty. In the first year we cover parts and labour, and in the second year parts. Repairs are done by our own technicians. Warranty details.

Yes, within 14 days of delivery, as new and in its original packaging. Returns policy.
