When I asked about a wheelchair I could take in the rain, this is one you recommended. It's great to see it in action.
I’m so thankful for your posts, they’ve taught me so much! Not to complain, just set my circumstances, I live in a rural area in SE Montana. The bike lanes & sidewalks are so torn up by frost heave & tree roots that you need a all terrain chair & 1 1/2 hrs to go a mile & a half to the store or college or clinic! But once you arrive at your destination, you need an indoor chair! There’s no one here that knows about such things! I’m a C5-6 incomplete quad that’s been lucky enough to be ambulatory with a rollator till now! Time & age has caught up with me, it’s chair time. I want to go back to college to finish my degree, at one time I was only 3 semesters from my BA, I didn’t need it, but now I want so that when I try to improve the bike lanes , aprons, & sidewalks, my voice will carry a bit more weight. The town council resists change of any kind, I wish to organize a group of local citizens that also want these improvements! It’s so easy to be invisible here! The only power chair user I know here drives down the roads as the sidewalks are impassable, that’s very risky as this is 4x4 big truck cattle country! We can’t even be seen over the hoods when they turn a corner & there we are! This is a town of 8,000 people, mostly older as the kids all leave . But we’re the only town within 100 miles so plenty of ranchers come daily to do business & leave. End of my scenario, Thanks for sharing yours, it’s nice / informative to hear from others /you, encouraging! I’ve been donated an old permobile, I don’t know the model yet as it arrives next week ( big weather front ) so maybe a delay. lol, I’m 30 years behind in technology, the last time I used a computer was 1991, windows had just come out, no internet or social media. Now you see the whole picture and why I must return to college! Yep, I’m a hick in the boonies, but in a year or two, I might be able to make my world a better place!
My V6 is my daily driver and I LOVE it!! It's not for everyone but for me its puuuuuuuuurfect!!! I was out on the trails today as a matter of fact and it felt really damn nice to get some tree huggin time!!!
thank you so much for your videos :) your freedoms and independence with the chair really encourage and inspire! much love my friend
Dan just wanna say I need a good outside chair for same reasons you stated tired of being couped up or stuck on porch love the trails creeks The people in the cities and such loved the scenery and such thanks for videos
Trees are great for absorbing bad vibes and depression....
Just now watching this one and love the V6. I'll have to find the videos that show the info on it and what all you've done.
I have had my V6 for eight years what a wonderful chair all I've ever done to it is replace batteries and tyres driven it in the Australian bush and also a long a couple of beaches are use it every day.
Cool little trip and conversation 👍👊♿️💪💪
Yeah that chair is fast and sounds good I just want to get some bigger tires on what I've got 8 in Honda mini trail 50 tires is what he has you can get a 10-in tire but that's just too big for me as far as gearing
Edit.. that may not be what he is running but I know that's what he ordered one time but that's how tall I want to go
If you don't have a propane gas generator get one you know what I mean just for charging
Couldn't have asked for better weather for a good cruising day.
While looking at the Bounder and Majic Mobility's off-road chairs, one or the other offered tire-liners for small ATV tires like yours. No flats.
1:32 This is the most annoying aspect of being in a chair for me. Everything takes so long to do.
That's for sure I know what you mean.
Glad you got out and about.
I've been in a chair for just about 10 years and am learning so much watching your videos so thank you for that. I'm wondering if there are some government programs other than Medicaid and Medicare that could help offset the cost. Some of those chairs are so very expensive. I've seen some on E-bay that are reasonably priced but then again, you just don't know what condition the chair is in. Thanks again for the videos.
Hi, I use a V6 daily, and I'm very interested in how did you go about installing a 120A controller in your V6.
Thanks
Thanks!
WAy to go homie 🎉
God job
V6 does have torque to run hard...good to see you out in it. How the hell do you get all the chairs you have?
that charger is much cheaper then the 21st century lithium charger six or $700 for a replacement
I want one one of those four wheel drive extreme 8 chairs for this kind of stuff I know they make tracked chairs but I want the wheels ones lol
Hi Dan enjoyed your last video of the frontier V6 I'm hoping to get mine in a few months going through the paperwork and all the proper channels right now I demoed one and really like it. Currently I am using a 600 ES.
Dan I need a outside chair like that for same reasons you stated love outside trails scenery creeks n things gets old being couped up all the time Summer is almost over been dealing with pressure wound since spring healing slowly so limited on in chair time so couped up a lot love the videos keep them coming Thanks Brother
that charger is best one for the price way better than the chargers that come with the chairs. Just have to keep in mind the mode. Im going to get on an put an xlr connecter on it like you did.
Is it Possible to reconstitute hey Jill ZRIL battery?? I have an old P220 quickie, (old being the operative word, it is well over 20 years old) and wondered how flat is too flat to try to get the batteries back up??
Please note in my previous comment then I was trying to say gel cell battery!
Dan did you get the V6 through insurance? Just curious.
nope. bought this one as a demo unit a few years back
i just found out from my c pap retailer they can t find the record or results of my last overnight sleep study ....
Yeesh.... And here I thought computerized records were supposed to !ake things better!!
What is better off-Road the V6 or the magic 360?
depends on you want an off road, or indoor chair!
@@TotallyNormal- I have loads of in-door WC’s, I need something outside & off-road and mostly desert & dunes. I’m
considering the:
-V6
-M360
-Bounder 300. (My favorite so far)
-Perimoble 5 Mid
I’m going through Medicare, if that makes a difference. I dislike fwd wheelchairs.
personally i think the V6 (mid) is one of the best offroad chairs ya can get right now!
i havent seen the 360 in person but it appears to be an everyday chair
bro, did you know what kinda pins V6 used for lights??
mine is a very early demo unit that was pieced together from random stuff, so im pretty sure the light wiring is different on mine :^/
@@TotallyNormal- thanks. light hook ups from V6 or 8extreme is so damn expensive.
V6 now x8
Should have kept your grabber with you, huh?
i can't be bothered with pneumatic tires
i hate air tires
