Press Release Body: Electric mobility scooters are versatile, convenient and a must
have to increase the quality of your life and help you maintain independence.
Mobility scooters are single-seat vehicles that are designed to aid the mobility
impaired. They may be gas-run, electrical or battery operated. These vehicles are
designed in much the same manner as motorized scooters. They may have three or four
wheels and can be maneuvered with a tiller or handlebar similar to one found in
bicycles. Normally they have padded luxury seats and flat bases for footrests.
Several makes and brands of mobility scooters are available on the market. Mobility
scooters can be designed for both internal as well as external traveling. Electric
mobility scooters with three wheels will typically be lighter in weight than a four
wheel scooter, although four wheeled scooters may offer better balance, particularly
when tricking around corners at speed, while 3-wheel scooters give more legroom than
the 4-wheel type!
Most people prefer to remain independent and stay in their own home. Mobility
scooters are much-appreciated motion aids for people with mobility problems. Even
elderly people who find it difficult to walk or stand use such scooters, will allow
you greater access to a range of activities that you may not have been able to enjoy
previously. Sometimes mobility scooters are prescribed by physicians to people
having mobility defects. People with problems such as paralysis or degeneration of
nerve tissues are prescribed mobility scooters. People who have reservations about
using wheelchairs are now using mobility scooters.
The battery-operated mobility scooters are the most famous. They can be run on two
12-volt cyclic batteries, which may provide a running time of 8-10 hours, i.e. about
20 to 30 miles. Recent scooters have charging sockets on both sides of the base so
that the rider can get the scooter charged even while remaining seated on it. Most
mobility scooters are within the speed range of 4 mph to 8 mph. Those with lower
speeds are more suited to the pavements and for indoor use. They are lightweight and
highly flexible. Mobility scooters are priced very preferable, depending on their
features. This makes them very much cheap compared to wheelchairs, and that is one
more reason explaining their tremendous popularity.
