Ever wondered how your mobility scooter or powerchair stops when you let go of the joystick/lever? βš™οΈ

Electromagnetic brakes make it happen, and here's how they work:

πŸ”Ή Stopped: Springs keep the brakes engaged, preventing the equipment from rolling.

πŸ”Ή Driving: The joystick activates electromagnets, releasing the brakes so the wheels can turn.

πŸ”Ή Joystick/lever released: The electromagnets switch off, and the brakes automatically re-engage.

πŸ›‘οΈ Fail-safe design: If power is lost or the battery goes flat, the brakes automatically engage to help prevent the equipment from rolling away. Most scooters and powerchairs also have a manual brake release lever, usually red or yellow, for when the equipment needs to be pushed manually.

πŸ’‘ Simply put: Power on = brakes released. Power off = brakes engaged.

Pneumatic vs Solid Tyres in Mobility Equipment πŸ›ž

Neither is universally better - it comes down to the equipment, environment and user preference.

πŸ›ž Solid Tyres
A puncture-resistant, low-maintenance option with consistent performance. They provide a firmer ride and less cushioning over bumps.

βœ… Puncture resistant
βœ… Low maintenance & reliable
βœ… No pressure checks required
βœ… Consistent performance
❎ Firmer ride on uneven surfaces

πŸ›ž Pneumatic Tyres
Air-filled tyres provide cushioning and shock absorption, making them a comfortable choice for outdoor and uneven surfaces.

βœ… Smoother, more comfortable ride
βœ… Better shock absorption
βœ… Good traction on uneven terrain
βœ… Pressure can be adjusted
❎ Requires pressure checks & can puncture

The right choice depends on how and where the equipment is used. Always follow the manufacturer’s specifications when selecting tyres.

Storing your mobility scooter? πŸ›΅

A few simple steps can help keep it in great condition while it's not in use:

🏑 Store it indoors in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight and moisture. Wipe it down first and use a breathable cover to keep dust away.

πŸ› οΈ Before storing, remove the key and inflate the tyres to the recommended PSI. While in storage, move the scooter occasionally to help prevent flat spots. Before using it again, check the tyres and give it a quick safety check.

πŸ”‹ Battery care: Check your owner's manual for the recommended storage method. As a general guide, lithium batteries should be stored at 50-70% charge, while lead-acid batteries should be stored fully charged and topped up every 4-6 weeks.

Have a scooter storage tip of your own? We'd love to hear it! πŸ’¬

6" vs 8" Walkers - Which one should you choose? πŸ€”

Choose an 8" walker if you:
βœ… Spend a lot of time outdoors
βœ… Walk on uneven paths, gravel, or rough surfaces
βœ… Want a smoother, more comfortable ride over bumps

Choose a 6" walker if you:
βœ… Mainly use your walker indoors
βœ… Need to navigate tight spaces with ease
βœ… Want a lightweight walker that's easy to lift, transport, and store

Still unsure? If you use your walker both indoors and outdoors, choose the size that suits where you'll use it most for the best comfort and support. 😊

Need help deciding? We're happy to help you find the right walker for your lifestyle.

Flying with your mobility equipment? A little preparation can help ensure it arrives safely. ✈️

βœ… Arrive early & take photos before check-in (essential if you need to make a damage claim).
βœ… Remove loose accessories like cushions, joysticks, keys and baskets, and pack them in your carry-on where possible. (Mobility aids don't count towards your standard carry-on allowance.)
βœ… Attach simple handling instructions with lifting points, freewheel mode, folding/storage info and your contact details.
βœ… Check your airline's battery requirements before you fly - removable lithium batteries must travel in the cabin.

πŸ’‘ Bonus tip: Let your airline know you're travelling with a mobility aid when you book.

Did you know? Air New Zealand offers Eagle lifting hoists for domestic travellers at Auckland, Wellington, Christchurch and Dunedin airports - just request this before you travel.
