I have a tri-ride T-rocks with the 20inch fatbike wheel and duel battery. Massive 40+ mile range in very hilly Cornwall and is limited to 25mph. If it's going on long road trips to the coast or moors, climbing big hills, going off road on bike trails, getting on the train or going to the shop my T-rocks does it all.

I love my Batec! It’s amazing. I get to go hiking and off road with ease. I’m looking at a firefly as I travel alone, it look smaller and easier to transport. My smart drive is OK but I feel like these two beat it especially as I spend most of my time outdoors. Batec, firefly, freewheel and smart drive are all life changing inventions! Gives us so much freedom!

I have both. And use them together sometimes. This video is old and the smart drive has been greatly improved. Now has tap to start, push tracker and support app for smart phones. I use the firefly for speed and dirt/grass, and the smart drive to help on steep hills.if you dont need the speed, a device called the freewheel may be better to go with the smart drive to add that off-road ability. But some may find it harder to put on than the firefly. Note, the firefly has been improved too. Much easier to attach/detach now.

I liked the pro and con of both. Nice job I wish I could afford one of either for my 15 year old daughter

If you put a freewheel on the front of the wheelchair and the smartdrive on the back it really makes those off road terrains accessible. I use my freewheel without my smartdrive sometimes and can easily roll all around my grassy back yard and it can be removed super easy.

When you mount something from 3rd party on the front of your chair like that Firefly or a Freewheel that lifts your front casters off of the ground, you are putting additional strain on your wheelchair frame. Which can cause it to break. This will void your warranty and you will be out of luck. Lesson learned on my end with a very expensive quickie titanium chair.. A company like Ti that builds a power assist reinforced frame was the only direction I could take to make sure my warranty was not voided.

Awesome, but my insurance won’t cover the cost. I have carpotunnel issues in my right arm as well as a bone spur n right shoulder. Life goes on

The Firefly looks way more fun tho hahaha

Esas sillas las tienen los ricos un pobre la tienen , Cuántos postgrados quieren sentir el aire mañanero ,el canto de los pájaros y el perfume de las flores y no pueden porque no tienen dinero para tener una silla como esas y mucho menos para mantenerla. Uruguay

This is a good comparaison video of both drives. It doesn't put down either one. The price tag for the SmarDrive sin't that much. Let me explain. Right now, Québec government pays for two wheelchairs, one manuaal and a motorised. I use both, one for inside and the other outside for long distances. The price tag for both is about 9000$ CAD. I have CP and love to use my muscles.I'm 64 soon (it's me in the photo). I rather have one chair that I can use in 'man or moto modes' without the hassle of trying to find someone to transfer me. My manual is truly a 'Rolls-Royce' for me. Very comfortable. Problem with my motorised one is when I stay in it for long période my back heurts. I have to tilt it back to reduce the trainà. I don't have to do similar with my Rolls-Royce. Me, I would go for Smart Drive because I don't need to ask anyone to take it off when at tables or even going to the toilet using a lift device such as the ARJO Sara 3000. As I said in the beginning both are good for different usage and persans' needs.

I love my Firefly , I purchase it three years ago .

I have a Smart Drive but like the looks of the firefly.

1:48 These castors are small though. 3:01 Having said that, you could turn sideways.

I prefer something compact like the smartdrive but not the price so I built my own using power skateboard parts for $500

I love the music at 1.30... with the guy coming up the hill at the speed of light!! Ahaha... Nice video.

This is old technology, yet it costs more than $6000. Something is wrong.

The smartdrive mx2 worth every penny!!!

I bought a first generation Smartdrive. Paid $6k. Sent it back 2 times for failures in the connection between battery and motor. The third time, the technician was a real jerk told me he wouldn't fix it again that it wasn't their problem anymore. Its sitting in a box. Dont recommend it. Use your hard earned money on something better.

What is the justification for a cost 10X more than a ultra high end able bodied persons two wheel electric scooter with less range??? this is basically the same device with only one wheel and a wireless interface and that justifies $5400 more?? Come on, just because i am in a chair does not mean i do not know when i am getting ripped off....... Oh I get it the Able bodied have a choice, and for the disabled its a nessesity so lets rip them off, you are Ghoules.

Very informative, thank you!

I would be afraid that the Firefly could lose traction going uphill since most of the weight will be shifted far back.

Great idea

You can get an entire power wheelchair for the price of the Smart Drive

Wery good

I had one of the SmartDrives and found it to be very dangerous. Wouldn’t always respond to commands and it occasionally just fell off. Do not buy!

Nice video guys!

I am annoyed i used a smart drive that had been used as their model so it was rightfully broken lol and didnt work for me. So i decided against the smart drive throwing me out of my wheelchair so i wanted to get a rio only to find out a company that make wheelchairs more accessible will not expand past a 22inch cushion 😤

Has ever been tested on the beach, if so how did it do?
