Whether you’re navigating your home, running errands, or traveling, we have an electric wheelchair to support your independence and mobility.
Choosing the Right Electric Wheelchair
Selecting the right electric wheelchair involves considering several key factors. First, assess your primary use: will you use it mostly indoors, outdoors, or for travel? For indoor use, prioritize models with a tight turning radius and compact dimensions. For outdoor use, look for wheelchairs with robust suspension, larger wheels, and sufficient battery range for longer trips. Weight capacity is another critical consideration—ensure the wheelchair can safely support your body weight. Comfort features like adjustable seating, cushioning, and footrests are also important, especially for extended use. Finally, consider portability; if you travel frequently, a lightweight, foldable model may be ideal. Our team at Galenus Medical is here to help you evaluate these factors and find the perfect fit for your lifestyle.
FAA Compliance for Electric Wheelchairs
For those who travel by air, FAA compliance is a crucial consideration. Many electric wheelchairs in our selection are designed to meet FAA standards for air travel, particularly regarding battery safety. Most of our models feature lithium-ion batteries, which are commonly approved for air travel when they meet specific watt-hour (Wh) limits—typically 300 Wh or less for a single battery or 160 Wh for spares. These batteries are often removable, allowing you to detach them for carry-on storage while the wheelchair frame is checked as luggage. Always check with your airline for specific requirements, but our FAA-compliant electric wheelchairs are designed to make travel smoother and more accessible.
Battery Wattage and Wheelchair Charging
Battery wattage is a key factor in the performance of electric wheelchairs. Our models typically feature lithium-ion batteries ranging from 100 to 300 watt-hours (Wh), balancing power and portability. Higher wattage batteries often provide longer travel distances but may be heavier, while lower wattage options are lighter and better suited for travel. Charging is straightforward—most electric wheelchairs come with a standard charger that plugs into a regular household outlet. A full charge typically takes 6-8 hours, though some models offer fast-charging options. We recommend charging overnight and avoiding complete battery depletion to extend battery life. Dual-battery designs are also available in some models, offering extended range and flexibility.
Distance Range of Electric Wheelchairs
The distance range of electric wheelchairs varies depending on the model, battery capacity, terrain, and user weight. Our selection includes options with ranges from 10 to 20 miles on a single charge under optimal conditions. Lightweight models designed for travel often offer around 10-15 miles, ideal for short trips or daily use. Heavy-duty models, built for more demanding use, can achieve up to 20 miles or more, depending on factors like speed, weight load, and terrain. Flat, smooth surfaces maximize range, while hills or rough terrain may reduce it. We provide detailed range specifications for each model to help you choose one that matches your daily needs.
Standard vs. Heavy-Duty Electric Wheelchairs
Electric wheelchairs come in standard and heavy-duty varieties to suit different needs. Standard electric wheelchairs are typically lighter, with weight capacities up to 250-300 pounds, and are designed for everyday use in homes, offices, or light outdoor environments. They often feature a compact frame and a tighter turning radius for maneuverability. Heavy-duty electric wheelchairs, by contrast, are built with reinforced frames and more powerful motors, supporting weights up to 400 pounds or more. These models offer enhanced durability, stronger suspension, and often a longer range, making them ideal for users needing extra support or those navigating varied terrains like gravel or grass. Both types are available in our lineup to ensure all users find a reliable option.
Wheelchair Sizes: Standard Width, Seat Height, and Footrests
Electric wheelchairs come in various sizes to accommodate different body types and environments. Standard seat widths typically range from 16 to 20 inches, with 18 inches being the most common for average adult users. Seat heights vary, generally between 18 and 22 inches from the floor without footrests. With adjustable footrests attached, the overall height and leg positioning can be customized for comfort, typically adding a few inches to the setup. For users concerned with small doorways, such as those measuring 28 inches wide, we offer compact models with total widths as narrow as 23-25 inches, ensuring easy navigation through tight spaces. Always measure your doorways and key areas to confirm fit, and our team can assist with precise specifications.
Folding Wheelchairs for Transport
For those needing portability, folding electric wheelchairs are an excellent option. These models are designed to collapse quickly and easily, often in seconds, making them ideal for transport in cars, SUVs, or even airplanes. Lightweight folding wheelchairs in our collection can weigh as little as 37.5 to 50 pounds, fitting compactly into most vehicle trunks. Some feature removable batteries and foldable frames for even easier storage. Whether you’re traveling locally or long-distance, these folding electric wheelchairs offer convenience without sacrificing functionality, allowing you to maintain mobility on the go.
Manual vs. Automated Reclining Wheelchairs
Electric wheelchairs may offer reclining features, available in manual or automated designs. Manual reclining wheelchairs require the user or a caregiver to adjust the backrest by hand, typically using a lever or mechanism. This option is simpler and often more affordable but may require assistance for operation. Automated reclining wheelchairs, on the other hand, use powered controls to adjust the backrest and sometimes the leg rests, offering greater independence and ease. These models are ideal for users who need frequent repositioning for comfort or medical reasons, such as pressure relief. Both types are available, allowing you to choose based on your needs and budget.

Angie Walker –
This chair has worked perfectly for me. I love it and get complements on how cool it looks. Very lightweight and fold up nice and small. Works perfectly and on a lot of different terrains.
Retired Guy –
Bought this for my dad to get him from his apartment to my mom’s room at their senior living residence. It’s quite a long walk for him to visit his wife of 72 years and he does not want to use a walker/rollator much to my chagrin. They’re both 95+ years old and it’s tough living apart. But he can no longer care for my mom himself. This chair has been just the best thing ever! Now he can go over as many times a day as he pleases and feelsvery independent. My hubby did the minimalassembly when it arrived and we both tried it out. We were delighted at how easy it is to maneuver and learn to use. (It can be configured for either left or right hand control.) We then went to my dad’s place and had him go around in the parking lot for a first go at using it—-straight forward, reverse, turns, using different speeds and trying the horn. The smile on his face was precious. He drove it easily up the long sidewalk and maneuvered through the HC power assist doorway into his building. He has had it about a month now and has only had to charge it once. Charging is such an easy process! We were amazed at how lightweight the battery is. It needs to come off when putting the chair in the car for travel purposes, but that’s easily done. The entire chair is very lightweight and placed into the trunk with ease, even by me, a 70 year old slightly overweight woman with back issues. It collapses easily to do this and then sets up again for use just as easily. Daddy has had many other residents inquire about his new chair and he gives them the link to review it themselves. He seems to be using it more and more, the longer he has it. That tells me it’s easy to use and recharge. We had looked into his Medicare insurance providing something like this, but honestly, his co-pay would’ve been about the same, he’d have had at least one, maybe two doctor visits to get the required paperwork done, then another appointment at a DME provider to actually show him his options and order it. THEN WAIT 3-6 MONTHS for it to be delivered!!!! I highly suggest this chair to support someone who is still mobile but can no longer walk long distances. (It’s also a comfy seat to sit in for longer periods of time if needed.).

It’s a good looking chair and charged quickly. I went to the park with it with a friend of mine, and it was easy to operate and maneuver once I got used to it. Even comfortable, which was surprising considering my back issues.
Jessica Whitaker –
Update: the company is sending us a new one and was easy to connect to. I will change my review if the new one is sturdier and more safe.Out of the box, this chair seemed great because of its smaller size and ability to turn corners more tightly than my father’s other chair.We followed the instructions for putting it together and ensured before purchasing that my father did not go over any sort of requirement/limit.In the house, the chair seemed to move just fine. Once my father took the chair outside, it no longer felt safe on any surface not completely flat.The front of the chair feels like it is going to buckle but then catches because it is locked down.We decided to keep it because he needed a new one and thought he’d just get used to how it feels.About 2 months later, it tipped while he was riding around his neighborhood and made a turn.Then, at 2 and a half months later, the back bar just snapped while he was using it inside. Thankfully he did not fall out and no one was injured, but now we have to get a new chair after paying for this one and we’re just glad it happened while he was at home. And of course we are outside of any return window.Please do not buy this chair. Keep your people safe and keep them mobile.

The chair was an excellent gift for my 88 year old dad. He is a very particular person and he ended up liking it a lot, he would not leave the chair not even to eat, it’s very versatile and easy to assemble and use, the seat couch is super comfortable and the battery lasts long.
