odd

You don’t have enough weight on your rear wheels. Tighten the tensioner for your springs on both sides. A screwdriver is all you need to turn the nut that’s at the end of the spring.

Do you sell this power box?

I am in Phoenix and have a few R-net Permobil chairs. Would you be able to program for me?

Hi l am a wheelcair user l own a brand new permobil f3 l bought of deseased estate.on the first day my son forgot to put in garage there was light drizzle rain for 10 min after we remembered we had to put on manual to push inside l put alot of air put inside the house to dry .l took rnet and joystick of there is not a drop of water inside.after 2 days remote opened brake error came on remote.but after we closed it .we tried again to use the remote when we put main switch on the r net light comes on for 1 second but the remote does not power on .l tried different remote its still the same.if l buy this tool the one you were showing in the video l was wondering if this tool troubleshoot and show me where l have issues.

AWESOME

Please, sir, I must have one of these!

Are you in Phoenix too?

What more can this do than onboard programming? I have a F5

Just a little bit at a time. Be careful!

I’m hungry

Yeah, get well soooooooon wheelchair ghost! 👻

This Three-Wheeler is homemade? Very nice! There's a guy who welded two electric bikes together for his girlfriend. She transfers onto it with ease. They got married about five years ago, and Jerry (jerryrigeverything) on youtube has built a company to make/ sell the evolved version. What a ride for around five-thousand dollars, and on my wish list, second only to healing and restoration for every human being with an infirmity, disease, head trauma, cancer, etc. If you rolled in your newish M5 along those familiar sidewalks, I'm impressed with the comfortable ride quality.

Some spots along the trail look fairly steep and long for a PWC, according Permobil. I lived two miles from White Tank Mountain Regional State Park (west Olive Ave. Maricopa). It was a five-mile round trip to the library there. Three PWC's handled it wo any problems, but Permobil warns me not to traverse such long inclines as it would fry the motors in a 2023-24 model. Thoughts?

I just watched a twenty-minute video on Permobil caster flutter on a generation 3 M5 pwc by 'Totally Normal'. He's been in an F3 with aggressive tread tires. The video is eight years old, but he's presently very satisfied w his '23 F3 and was successful in stopping caster flutter on the older Permobil mentioned - interesting. Also, he assured that 'fixing' or working on the flutter problem won't void the warranty as the issue in considered a defect in parts/ workmanship. He did mention Permobil uses larger casters than previously, at some point. Eight-inch casters on m3, m5, f3, f5, presently. It occurs to me that the aggressive tread tires are slightly larger in width and diameter than the standard tread tires and they come with rear fenders, adding 7.5 mph plays a part. My initial in home F5 demo, the Numotion Rep. suggested standard tread for my use in Southern Indiana, adding the aggressive tread have softer tread compound and more open tread (wear faster). I thought that was a weird thing to say as we get a healthy amount of snow down here and the more frequent tire/ wheel replacements means more money for my vendor. That said, it's funny that Permobil's every picture pwc advertised has aggressive tread tires. Hmm.

I'm in the process of replacing my present PWC. I'm aligned with V.R. and going through final motions (seating eval report to my counselor's desk - expected by late Dec. or early Jan.). My C500 sits, it's the best pwc I've experienced, poor ride quality, though. I talked w Matt Miller, permobil customer service and he suggested an F5 as opposed to the M5 largely due to caster flutter issues. Truthfully, I believe an M5 is the better choice per my condition at sixty-eight yrs. of age. I'm disappointed after watching your experience. A piece of plastic falling off a wheel due to flutter issues - wow. The Tech ignoring the l. r. caster looseness - I'd get to know his boss, really. A shock absorber ill adjusted, now I'm rethinking a Permobil. Working on your own pwc - could that void the warranty? ...not too many quads that can do this. If you have any encouragement to proceed w Permobil, please reply. Appreciate you sharing!

im still thinking a flat washer between a stack of wavy till really increase the stiffness.

A big jar of flutter butter applied liberally might do the trick!!!!

I've got the flutter bad but in an older chair, i've just now tightened my washers down. One was looser than the other. time will tell if it helps.

I love this video !

Joe needs to go back to being unemployed.

🤦🏼‍♂️you didn’t want that dude wrenching on your chair anyway. Luckily he didn’t hook up the batteries and let the grey smoke out

They don't make common sense like they used to.

That was funny.. Its sad, how they can't replace a simple battery😀. And they have the make & model number.

Thank you for the free comedy show. Get well soon sir.

Is that a public park? I understand paying for transportation...but why the other charge? anyway just wondering....

Welcome back.

Looks good...Glad to see ya back up and rolling.....

My F5 vs I got in May this year came with the Permobil batteries. I'm used to the MK batteries that would go a consist 15 miles for almost 2 years before fading. I was impressed that I got a good 20 miles out of the Permobil batteries, but they faded fast and within a month, they where down to just over 10 miles. After over 10 years in a chair, I'm sick of the DME's always replacing my batteries with crap batteries that fade bad within 6 months and are totally shot in a year. So I upgraded to lithium. Just hunted a ton to find a 12 volt lithium battery for a direct replacement of my batteries. Had to put a separate battery meter to more accurately monitor the lithium as the joystick battery gage doesn't know how to deal with lithium. I also got a different charger. So I now get a constant 30 miles out of them and the batteries will last longer than my chair. I plan to get bare cells and use a separate BMS. That's your best bet for the maximum mileage.

Yup that’s me on the Cliff! Still hanging in there 😂❤ thank you for including me in your blog!

A man after my own heart! Keep up the good work and rest in between the major lifts! Looking forward to the build.

Good job tackling that chair. Hope you have a speedy recovery. Looking forward to the build. I sometimes rely on a selfie stick to record short videos at floor view, facing up since I can't get down low enough to see.

Can I have your Power Wheelchair for free?

INTERESTING! i think you're the first person to do that on video! nice to know the whole seating system DOES in fact come off as a unit! hmmmmmm... ideas are forming.... **edit** now we need to get that ICS powered up standalone style!

Depends on if you are using it a max torque and speed, uphill or down hill, what the terrain is, what the outdoor temperature is, your weight, yadda yadda

I figure up camera just need to figure out the box where to get the boxes for the electrical

Where can I get the parts?

Great video! I'm due for a new chair which is exciting and stressful cause you want to get it right. I've always had a mid- wheel drive chair and there's so many things I love about my Permobil M3. As my needs have changed I'm looking at the F3 or F5. Over the years I've really hoped that the driving range would increase. And I mean increase substantially. I'm wanting 60-80 miles per charge. I'd also like for the chair to charge in a matter of an hour or two. Wouldn't it be cool if you could charge the chair from your car? It's very hilly where I'm at and just driving around to the back of my home is steep. You do this enough times and the driving range is not only under what is stated, but as such, this limits what I can do during the day. That's not acceptable. Most people in wheelchairs don't live on a putting green where it's flat. I think there's plenty of room for power wheelchairs to at least meet the level of technology that everyone has in their smart phone, namely the type of batteries that they use. It just feels like the way all power wheelchair manufacturers roll is to do things like they always have. For the price of these chairs I expect more than a cup holder or USB charger as new features. All chairs should come standard with certain things. Lights, backup camera, the LUCI system, and the ability to go all day on a charge seems to be a reasonable thing to ask. I keep hoping.

Hey is it very expensive to build a chair bike from scratch?

What a nice view. Thanks for bringing us along. 🦼😁

Looks a bit windy there, I wish that there was somewhere where I live like that 👍

looks good...fresh air and sunshine!!!

Thank you so much for uploading this video, super appreciated! I received a brand-new M3 about 10 months ago, but have been a little bit chicken to really test the range to the extreme. My chair has about 315 km/195 miles

Hey wheelchair ghost thanks for the stream. I’ll be out there watching for you.

Mm 🤔

This looks like it was all on flat ground. Is that correct?

Great vlog👍👍

Excellent job thanks 👍
