Has anyone tried this system while in a wheelchair?

Hi MH, There are a few things to consider. Is your dog strong enough to pull you out of the chair. If so, I wouldn't recommend this. Or is the dog capable of controlling your chair speed and possibly endangering you? If the dog is smaller and not one to pull then I think this is an excellent choice! The length of the leash is adjustable and could be used in a chair. I just wouldn't want you hurt. It does take core strength with a pulling dog like mine. Let us know how it goes!

I have not, but I'm sure it could be done, providing the dog has been trained. There's an attachment on it that is supposed to prevent pulling, but I've never tried it. I think it would be worth a shot, but I could not give a definite yay or nay as to if it would work

I have not tried, but I believe you can use this while sitting down. However, I don't believe that you will be able to do anything else.

I have no idea - my husband's wheelchair is a large wheelchair but not a Hoveround. Sorry.

You sure can! I am using it that same way to control two electric wheelchair motors.

Yes you can, go to Karman Wheelchairs on the net, then click on wheelchair Parts and Assessories.

There is a screw-hole in the clic-gear unit that the umbrella holder threads into. So the holder would only work with a wheelchair if the wheelchair had the proper size screw fitting

I work from a wheelchair, so for me, high is good, I have fiddled the harness & connector to vary height as well

Yes they are. The wheelchair is very sturdy and comfortable. I think you will be happy with it.

No A wheelchair is a different size and weight, and has much bigger wheels. Even if you managed to line them up and attach the clips, I would guess it would be quite unstable.

I have been in a manual wheelchair since 1987 so I have just a little experience with this type of wheelchair. It is very easy to move from room to room. As to the doors if they worked for your motorized chair it will be the same. Another thing I like is the wheelchair has rough covering for you to push/drive yourself which is great if it's raining or your hands get wet verses the chrome ones.

Probably not. I wouldn't use it in this way - but then I wouldn't try to do that with a wheelchair!!!

I'm going to say yes qualifying the yes with the effect of the lights tricking the eyes of people passing by is at running speed and up. If your wheelchair has a small enough hub and bicycle spokes it will mount and function

I don't like this wheelchair. some part is not good design. also when I use it, it has a lot of noise, sometimes, some parts were dropped

It's not easy to go over threshholds because the wheels are relatively small. Have to wrestle with it. A regular wheelchair works better there, with a notch on the back that the steering party can put their foot on to raise the front wheel slightly as needed. & the large wheels make it easier to push too. Can't speak to carpet, but almost tumbled my Mom out trying to do down a cobble stoned ramp at an art show in the streets. This chair is handy sometimes, but a real wheelchair probably works best for long-term situations. Mom used it to push her laundry to the laundry room yesterday...

I have used it with a powered wheelchair without drilling holes and using the pins, since the ramp had to be removed and stored after each use.

I use this wheelchair in my house all the time and can move independently. Hope this helps.

Jim I have found the chair to be fast and comfortable however if you need a chest or lapse drop I don't believe this unit is equipped with that you would have to make your own arrangements also if you do not have use of a right or left and I'm not sure what modifications can be set up for mouth controls.
