    How many miles did you manage to get? Because i got the q9000 and it's supposed to go up to 30km but i didnt even manage to get a full 10 km on a full charge. Which would not last me a full dat at a theme park let alone two

      Oh wow. That's odd. Yeah, mine lasted all day at six flags. You can watch this follow up video where I change the battery after it dies. At the end of the video, I explain how it probably lasted about 10 miles, but it's hard to say for sure.

      @@compassioncornercounseling I had watched it. I got the chair based on your reviews. Because I just want to go out again as well. But they're very friendly and are sending me a new one. So hopefully it'll solve the problem and I can finally plan a trip to an amusement park as well!

      @Richarmed oh wow. I'm glad I could help. 💜 Yes, they're very friendly. I'm glad they were able to send you a new one. Sorry the first one gave you trouble. I absolutely love my chair. 😊

    So how long did it last before it died on day two?

      Most of the day! It lasted until like 30 mins before the park closed! I should be posting a video about it next week. Keep an eye out! 😊👍🏽

    Thanks, I enjoyed watching your video. Im guessing you have pain issues and need the wheelchair for that. I also have bad pain in my lower back and left hip area. I'm a 65 yr old female and overweight. I can walk 5 to 15 minutes before I have to sit down and can't stand long. I just got one of these wheelchairs too. The Majestic IQ-7000. I will be taking it to a theme park tonight, Universal's Halloween Horror Nights. I hope I'll be able to maneuver it comfortably, especially in the houses. I'm alittle scared about it. It looks easy to maneuver. I literally got this chair yesterday, so I hope I'll do well!! You're very cute by the way and seem like a sweet person!! You remind me of my youngest daughter, who is 27, but looks like early 20's and similar in personality. Anyway, just had to let you know!😊

      Thank you so much for sharing your story! Yes, I have pain issues and can't walk or stand for long periods of time. You can watch my video about the car accident that changed my life to learn more :) I used to live in Orlando and have been to HHN before. At the time, I rented a scooter from them. It worked, but it was a little cramped. The IQ7000 should be much easier we to navigate with! I hope you have fun! I'm curious, did you find my videos after purchasing your chair? Have you had a chance to use it yet? I hope you love it like I do! 😊 I just posted another video today showing how I changed the battery at Six Flags. You might want to check that out. I was surprised that the battery lasted so long! I couldve just charged the battery overnight and I wouldn't have even needed to bring a spare. And thank you for your kind words! 😊🙏🏽❤️

      @@compassioncornercounseling I have the same issue were I can walk 5 to 10 minutes, but then start having low back pain. I can push myself to walk more, but it just becomes more severe when I do. The second I sit down though, it's gone!! Instant relief!! I think mine is more degenerative disc disease due to age and weight. I was looking into electric wheelchairs, so I could go to theme parks and such (my favorite thing to do)!! The Majestic wheelchair looked like a fantastic wheelchair!! Started watching TH-cam videos on it and then your video showed on my page as a related suggestion, so I watched it. I haven't used it at HHN yet, I will Sunday, then next day, Monday going to Epcot for Moana preview with my grown daughters and my oldest daughter's fiance. I was wondering if you know. I fully charged it a few days ago and it's been just sitting in my house, cause I haven't gone anywhere that I need it. Does it lose it's charge just sitting there unplugged? I won't plug it it in because it had warnings not to charge it more than 24 hours or do multiple charges, I believe. Also, do you have trouble getting it in and out of your vehicle? I was thinking of using a blanket over the back of my SUV's bumper and sliding it up over the blanket. I saw people do that.

      @danaboyer wow, that's interesting. From my experience, the chair battery doesn't decline while sitting unused. Yes, getting it in and out of the car can be tricky. I also use a moving blanket to protect my bumper. I have a video that shows how to use a ComfyGo Wheelchair lift to get the wheelchair in and out of the car, but I havent posted a video yet about how to get it in and out without the wheelchair lift.

      @@compassioncornercounseling I have finally used it at theme parks. I used it at HHN in Universal Studios and also at Epcot!! It was great!! I love it!! I did well with it, but tight queue lines scared me, especially with severe U-turns!! I did a turn too quick and my shoulder brushed firmly against a pole. Sometimes, I get alittle wobbly in the stick controller and zigzag alittle bit, minimal. I wonder after using it at the parks and the green light dissapears, if I should recharge before going to a park again. But so far, I'm loving the wheelchair!!
