We love a good powerchair that can offer a refined base and an excellent seating system. In this Naidex45 focus, powerchairs are the topic at hand. If you’re looking for your next powerchair or simply want to keep aware of the latest innovations in the market, read on. Remember as well to register for your Naidex45 tickets by clicking here.
Quantum Powerchairs
Quantum will be showcasing some of the Pride range, including the Pride Go and the Jazzy. The one we can’t wait for you to see is the Edge 3.0, which has been with us very recently.
The Edge 3.0 is a really competent base powerchair, offering dual 50Ah batteries and a range of controller options. The Q-Logic system, with it’s bluetooth diagnostic and adjustment system goes head to head with the Linx on offer from Invacare.
It also has i-Level technology, which allows you to drive at a height of 12 inches taller than the seat base. At full height, the top speed is 4.5MPH, which is the quickest on offer at the moment. When not risen, the max speed can be up to 8MPH with uprated motors.
Style is not compromised. The Edge 3.0 has a wide range of colour combinations which are then matched across the wheelchair to give you a smart look. We love the matte red finish, which looks warm and smart. The LED fender lights look amazing too.
Seating is well provided, with a range of low to high need seating available. If you need something more specialist, the Edge 3.0 can also accept a number of different seating systems. It couples this with a range of Q-Logic control options, including dual information screen and assistant drive.
You can visit Quantum Rehab at stand N7032 and N5100.
TGA Whill C at Naidex45
The TGA Whill C is a powerchair aimed at customers with a lower clinical need, offering a base seat and collapsible powerchair combined with style and innovation. You can read about it in our review here. The great elements of this powerchair include how TGA have integrated some of the accessories the customer might need, such as the under-seat storage and walking stick holders. We love the colour options and the simplicity.
You’ll be able to test drive the Whill C on the TGA test track, which returns again this year. You can find TGA on stand N11112
Ottobock and Recare
Ottobock have teamed up with Recare again to showcase their range of wheelchairs. The Juvo range will be on show. Visitors will be able to see feature two versions of the Juvo B4, all three drive versions of the Juvo B5, a Juvo B5 set up with head controls, as well as the rear and mid-wheel drive versions of the Juvo B6.
The Juvo powerchair comes in three different models — B4, B5 and B6 — with a whole host of configurations and adaptions available on all of them, from personalised touches such as frame colours and USB power banks, to practical solutions such as head controls, the innovative and unique TEN° controller and Baxx line seating.
You can visit Ottobock on stand N2120
Invacare at Naidex45
We know that Invacare will be showing the wide range of powerchairs they offer. The Spectra XTR2 is one of the most popular powerchairs for users requiring an Indoor Outdoor Powerchair. Alongside this, they’ll most likely be showing the TDX2 (pictured below) and the Fox, which goes head to head with the Quickie Q100R.
Electric Wheelchair
The Invacare Linx control system is capable of live data. It offers a live diagnostic app as well as profile-based drive. When you connect it to the rise, recline and tilt seating systems, it offers you a number of quick-positions as well as individual controls. It goes head to head with the latest Q-Logic system from Quantum.
You can visit Invacare on stand N13142
Quickie and Sunrise Medical
Quickie will be showcasing their range of powerchairs. On stand you can expect the Quickie Q100R, the Q500 and the Q700 Up. Sunrise are yet to confirm the exact powerchairs on show but we know the Quickie Q100R has been very popular on Motability.
The difference between the Q100R, the Q500 range and the Q700 range comes down to seating range. The Q100R has a seating system aimed at those with lower clinical need. For someone with more support requirements but not needing precise settings, the Q500 offers the Sedeo Pro, as well as the Sedeo Ergo seating system. If you need something with tailored support, precise lumbar and exact positioning the Q700 range offers the Sedeo Ergo seating system.
