have had a few similar questions.. so ill clarify :^) now that im back in town, the Bounder will be my chair i use when outside, traveling around - going to store etc..., and the F3 will be my "indoor" daily driver :^)
Maybe you have money or got those really cheap but this still hurts my soul as a Quad that you'd even use a low range F3 for anything in support of this model. (Smaller body but awful range when compared to the generation before it) LOL. Bless your heart and enjoy soccer.
What size batteries are in the F3 and M3?
group 34 60Ah batteries
@@TotallyNormal- Hmm, do they get you much further than NF22?
3-4 miles vs 12-14 miles haha
Hello bro,
I wish, I have seen you earlier… Before I took the decision to buy my wheelchair…
Great… your diligence and dedication to share with all of us
All praise
F3 - Anterior tilt can be as much as 30 degrees.
F5 - Anterior not VS models as much as 45 degrees almost standing very close though.
thanks for the info! with the comments you guys left, i found out its called active reach!

Congrats on the new chair! You will love the F3, really the only thing you need to worry about is those bearing caps on the back casters, they can pop off easily. But I imagine you can find something to keep those caps on their tight.
Also that forward tilt feature on your new chair is actually called per mobile active Congrats on the new chair! You will love the F3, really the only thing you need to worry about is those bearing caps on the back casters, they can pop off easily. But I imagine you can find something to keep those caps on their tight.
Also that forward tilt feature on your new chair is actually called permobil activereach, It allows the user of the chair to lean forward to reach things. I’ll find the link to the video and send it to you through Twitter.
Congrats on the new apartment, looks like a nice place.
Yes, F-3,s are avail with the stand option (along with the 80 or additional lbs) Just try to get insurance to pay for it
I love your videos pal thanks
Looks cool!! Congratulations!! Time well invested!
the chair is the same like the F5 there been 2 diffrent kinds, like the F5VS and F5 active stand. the diffrent is the Active stand (like i have) is not driving when active stand. the F5 VS can stand 100% upright that one is driving when standing. mucht better! the one you have seems to be a Active stand
If I Go Out In A Light Drizzle I Use A
Cub Foods Or Target Bag To Throw
Over The Joystick. It's Better To Be Safe Then
Sorry.
Awesome video. Great to see you have a new place that is closer. Also so cool that you got so many new chairs for power soccer! Hope you get some rest soon, must be beat. Take care and super congrats for no neighbors and sound deadoning!
So Many New Things!! You Hit The Permobil Holy Grail.Looking Forward For Live Stream.Yah Buddy
Thank god for fast internet, finally! Good luck on the new place, you deserve it
Dam your lucky to get all those chairs nothin like having spares
you sure are. I got hassled for having 1 extra !
... but I secretly laughed inside and ignored it. I knew it was a BS scare tactic. Another example of the man tryin to keep the handicapped people down (LOL).
Wow 7 Permo's. You should think about keep the standing F3. Looking forward to some new trails.
Excited for you man, looks like a nice place. I hope it works out well for the time being. I'm looking forward to seeing the new trails... Google fiber was supposed to be here last year🙄 still waiting for that speed, I'm not sure what you're going to do with your time now that you don't have to upload for hours😂. New wheelchair testing 🤔🤔🤔 very interesting 🤔🤔🤔
didnt google fiber go away? .. oh wait.. that was in Kentucky... LOL www.businessinsider.com/google-fiber-louisville-shutdown-2019-2
U should move to Austin Texas lots of ada compliant places and lots of afford able housing
I love your ch pal i love watching your builds an repairs I love permobil’s that will be my next chair the f5 I have a qm710 now I hate the casters the Bearings always break what are your thoughts on the new f5 are they a good chair I’m a hard user from what I hear it’s a very well made chair? My name is Joey I’m from Staten Island New York Thxs dan
hey buddy, when its raining here i jusr slip a clean ziploc bag over my joystick n contollervso no rain gets in it, but u probably already knew that. Jusr call me captn obvious
I love my M300! I really can’t imagine getting hold of all those chairs. How do the cats handle moving?
You could sell 3 of those Permobils and buy a house!
I Wonder If My F 300 Can Do Stuff
Like That?
Where do you get the free wheelchairs?
Hi Dan I just got a new chair, it is a Permobil M1 and I was wondering what your thoughts are on that chair? I do find it more comfortable and the suspension seems better than my old chair but I am not really liking the responsiveness of the steering, and it seems slower than my other chair witch was an Invocare?
i haven't personally seen an M1 in person.. BUT if its got a gyroscope stabilizer, that explains the lack of steering performance.. its possible to tune them up a little bit, but not all dealers are able to make the adjustments for that. (some of it is OEM locked)
i just programed my F3 today, and its got the gyro.. but was able to get it set so its a lot better.. but theyre nothing like the old skool invacare chairs.. that's for sure! if the M1 doesn't have the gyro, it should be able to be adjusted with a handheld programmer, or a USB dongle. check with your dealer and see if they can make some adjustments. usually they dont charge for tuning on new chairs right after delivery..
Do you prefer using front wheel drive chairs? Was curious because I have only had mid wheel but mostly see other people in front wheel.
Yea I like front wheel drive for running around in small places.. also less castor wheels to get stuck on things. BUT front wheel is less stable... depending on the chair.... I seem to be able to maneuver into tight spaces a lot easier though.
Hi Derek. I have used front, mid, and rear drive chairs over many years and really prefer the mid-wheel drive. To me, mid-wheel is more natural and you don't have as much overshooting and undershooting turn issues. There is no one right type - it's more what works best for you. They keep making and selling all 3 models, after all. If you can get a loaner front wheel to try you can compare and see what you like best. Take care.
Well said. Try and get into as many demo chairs as you can, or try out the 3 types. Maybe setup some cones or obstacles and do a little slalom with each type of chair. You’ll know as soon as you try the one you like! Most ppl like mid wheel FYI
Can the back platform be moved back or forward on the chair without affecting the seating.
with the configuration on the chair in the video, yes.. the back, and leg rests can slide forward and backwards a bit (independently from each other). but the seating system as a whole is fixed in place. on the older chairs with a single post seat mount(or lift) the entire seating assembly can also move forward and back about 3-4"
@@TotallyNormal- Can I move just the back assembly without moving the seat or foot rests. The problem we are having is the foot rest assembly is too close to the bed so we are trying to move just the back to be closer to the bed. Any ideas. Thanks
@@TotallyNormal- The chair is new it is a F3. Next question is how to do it.
brokenwheelchairs.com/page-8/
check the F3 service manual in above link.. they haven't updated it for the newest chairs.. BUT its pretty similar.
ive also got a video adjusting another chair, to at least show the process..
ruclips.net/video/xScAJgEOYwM/видео.html
its for an M3 - but the process is pretty much the same :^)
How does he manage to move ? My last move i had to have my daughter and son in law help me.
i had help.. just didn't film any of it :^)
What happened to the Bounder as a daily driver that looks like an expensive chair
Funny you mention that... as I’m typing this, I’m actually getting the bounder out of storage!! It’s gonna be daily use now that I’ve moved, and am not 40 min away from civilization!
