Introducing the Empulse R20
With the new Empulse R20 pushing aid it has never been so easy to support the attendant pushing the wheelchair. Whether uphill, downhill or long trips, the R20 helps in every situation. Combining a unique folding function, the lightweight R20 is under 5 kg providing easy transportation and literally no impact when self propelling your wheelchair.
The R20 is compatible with almost any wheelchair that has a box frame and a tube diameter of 22-28 mm.
Pushing has never been so easy!
With a 4.5 kg total transport weight and unique folding function, the R20 is ideal for storage and transport, without having to compromise on performance and durability. The R20 is also incredibly easy to use, with a push to go control, two peg mounting and easy to read display.
The R20 is one of the lightest powerpacks on the market.
With a total carry weight of just 4.5kg, it is less than half the weight of other powerpacks currently available. This includes 3kg for the motor and a 1.4kg lithium-ion battery which can be disconnected and transported separately (the intuitive, easy to grip two peg design allows easy mounting without using any tools).
250w brushless motors
The R20 contains 250w brushless motors that don’t wear over time versus traditional brushed versions, as well as a powerful, robust and long lasting tyre and a lithium ion battery ensuring a durable and reliable product, this is reinforced with an extended 2 year warranty on the battery and 3 years on the motor.
Easy to use
The easy to use control system has one push button to go, as well as an easy to read display showing the speed and battery gauges. A height adjustable handle allows the user to achieve the most comfortable position when operating the device.
