Description
This 2024 Quickie Q50R powerchair is a work of art! One of the lightest folding powered wheelchairs you can buy, weighing in at an amazing 14.5kgs. Half the weight of most traditional folding electric wheelchairs, so this premium wheelchair really can be lifted in and out of a car easily for transport, or used on a cruise ship, aeroplane or public transport, taking up very little space. When folded it's incredibly compact, but is incredibly strong, durable and solid, unlike any other.
If you have been researching carbon fibre wheelchairs, you'll already know they are VERY expensive to buy new, as with carbon fibre bike frames, as they are very complex and expensive to design and produce.
The entire frame is made of carbon fibre, and is a work of art to look at, with all the benefits of this incredibly strong yet lightweight composite. If Formula 1 made wheelchairs, this would be it!
Despite the sleek appearance and ultra lightweight design, this scooter is very stable and sturdy and can carry people up to 21.4 stone (136kg) and fits people of all sizes including those well over 6' tall. Pretty amazing design that can carry almost 10 times its own weight. And that's probably why they are so expensive new...
The power is via twin rear wheel 150w motors, with joystick control with illuminated display and adjustable speed settings for ease of use. Automatic electronic braking brings you to a halt whenever you release the joystick, and it is incredibly easy to drive with simple fingertip control. The joystick position can be adjusted forwards or backwards, and can be swapped for left or right handed users.
The airline compliant 10Ah lithium battery fits under the seat, can be removed easily for charging on or off the chair, and holds charge for weeks or months, giving you up to 7.5 miles on a single charge.
This wheelchair was bought with the intention of being used for foreign travel. It was tried once in the showroom, purchased then kept for use for an intended cruise holiday, However, due to worsening health, the trips away never happened. It has only been used a couple of times for local outings. It was bought new in late 2024, and kept just in case the circumstances would allow it, but regrettably it is now unlikely to be used.
Despite not being used, the battery was charged at least once or twice a month to ensure it remained in peak condition. The battery test shows it is maintaining 29.31v after charging which indicates full health. The batteries charge at 29.4v, so ideally should hold similar voltage. If they indicate 28v or below they are considered old and/or weaker, but this one holds charge at 29.31v which is as good as when it was new.
Condition is immaculate, as it was never used on holiday, and it is in pretty much the same condition as when it left the showroom. Seat, wheels, tyres etc. are all in excellent condition, but there may be one or two tiny marks from storage.
Comes with single battery pack, seatbelt, original charger and printed manual.
You're welcome to come to view and collect it, or I can deliver for free within a 50 mile radius of Brockenhurst (New Forest) so Southampton, Bournemouth, Poole, Portsmouth, Salisbury etc.
Regrettably due to the value of this chair, I will not post or send via courier.
Payment via eBay payments, or bank transfer or cash at the time of collection or drop off if you prefer.
