Re: [QUAD-L] new chair

I'm glad you enjoy it.  If the paint looks violet, that's because they gave
you purple.  When I ordered my Invacare years ago I wanted purple and it
came in violet and that's what they said was purple.

I've been working with my new chair for a month now and even though I'm
still having problems, I am slowly getting used to the differences.  Its
been a hard time for me to learn how to use Magitek effectively with the
Permobile.  Actually I don't think I'm real effective yet, but I am getting
better.  Changing from the Peachtree to Magitek has been a heck of a change.
I really wish I could just get in a new chair and drive away without any
difficulties, but that's not the way it is for me.

Re: [QUAD-L] Diabetic

Yes, when I first got injured they said the injury threw my body into shock and 
out of whack from the trauma and gave me insulin during the initial stages of 
injury---then later it cleared up and was normal for years, then about 3 or 4 
years ago.. while being treated for a uti they told me I was diabetic and would 
need medicine, so from then on I have to take the pills for it twice a 
day...I hope it never progresses to the shots.

Hi Gregg,
Sorry to read of your issue and yes it sounds like you pop'd a circuit  
breaker or fuse.  That can happen when something protected is forced for  any 
reason.  As a chair owner, you should know or be made aware of any  place on 
your chair of electrical protection, such as a circuit breaker or  fuse.
Because I don't know the brand of your personal equipment.. it is difficult 
 to offer further advice or suggestions other then to call the Provider of 
your  chair.
 
Best Wishes

My chair broke down again.  Fri. 
I was getting in my van and went  in at an angle, I got wedged in between 
the ramp and back  seat. 
I was going forward and back  trying to free myself and it just stopped. No 
power at  all. 
I checked the batteries as well as  we could and it all looked fine. 
Everything looks  normal. 
I don’t know about fuses or a  reset button. It could be the joystick. When 
it’s off the recline buttons  don’t work at all. 
At least I have a backup chair.  Always a weekend too.
