Robooter E80 Lightweight Carbon Fibre Folding Powerchair
Discover lightweight mobility without compromising on strength with the Robooter E80 Carbon Fibre Powerchair.
Designed as a highly portable electric wheelchair for everyday mobility and travel, the E80 combines a lightweight carbon-fibre frame with an impressive 150 kg / 23.5 stone maximum user weight.
The powerchair itself weighs approximately 15.9 kg / 35 lb, making it an exceptionally lightweight option for users looking for a folding electric wheelchair that can be more easily transported and stored.
A straightforward two-step manual folding mechanism allows the E80 to fold without dismantling the chair, while smart controls, mobile app connectivity, front and rear lighting and a removable storage backpack add everyday practicality.
Lightweight Carbon Fibre Frame
The standout feature of the Robooter E80 is its lightweight carbon-fibre construction.
Carbon fibre combines low weight with excellent strength, enabling Robooter to produce a powerchair weighing approximately 15.9 kg / 35 lb while still supporting a maximum user weight of 150 kg / 330 lb.
This combination makes the E80 particularly attractive for customers who want a lightweight folding powerchair but require a higher user capacity than many ultra-lightweight models provide.
Reducing the weight of a folding powerchair can make a significant difference when it needs to be:
- Lifted into or out of a vehicle
- Stored at home
- Transported on holiday
- Taken on public transport
- Moved between different locations
Users and carers should still assess whether 15.9 kg is an appropriate manual lift for them and use suitable lifting techniques.
23.5 Stone Maximum User Weight
Despite its lightweight construction, the Robooter E80 has an impressive 150 kg / 330 lb maximum load-bearing capacity, equivalent to approximately 23.5 stone. This provides an excellent strength-to-weight combination for a carbon-fibre travel powerchair.
Simple Two-Step Folding
The E80 uses a straightforward two-step manual folding mechanism. There is no need to dismantle the main wheelchair frame before folding. Once folded, the E80 forms a compact package measuring approximately: 715 x 628 x 445 mm This makes it practical for storage at home and transportation in a suitable vehicle.
Compact Folded Dimensions
When unfolded, the E80 measures approximately: 998 mm long x 628 mm wide x 965 mm high
When folded, this reduces to approximately: 715 mm long x 628 mm wide x 445 mm high
The relatively compact folded height can be particularly useful when storing the chair in a car boot or other restricted storage area. Vehicle dimensions should always be checked before purchase.
Smart Mobile App Control
The Robooter E80 combines lightweight construction with smart technology. A compatible mobile app enables remote control of the powerchair and provides access to personalised driving settings. This allows the user or an appropriate companion to interact with the E80 using a compatible smartphone.
Wireless Remote Control
In addition to app connectivity, Robooter promotes the E80 with wireless remote control functionality. Remote operation can be particularly useful when repositioning an unoccupied powerchair or moving it into or out of a suitable storage location.
Remote driving should only be used safely and in accordance with the manufacturer's instructions.
User-Friendly Joystick Controls
For everyday driving, the E80 uses an intuitive joystick interface designed to make controlling the powerchair straightforward.
The joystick gives the user proportional control over direction and movement, helping provide precise manoeuvrability for everyday indoor and outdoor use.
Airline-Friendly Lithium Battery
Robooter describes the E80 as featuring an airline-friendly lithium battery, supporting its role as a travel-oriented powerchair. Customers intending to fly with the E80 should always contact their airline before travelling.
Airlines and airports have their own procedures and restrictions concerning powered mobility equipment and lithium batteries, and acceptance remains subject to the individual transport provider's requirements.
8-Inch Front Wheels
The E80 uses 8-inch PU front tyres. These provide a practical combination of manoeuvrability and durability for everyday use.
10-Inch Pneumatic Rear Wheels
At the rear are larger 10-inch pneumatic tyres. The larger rear wheels and pneumatic construction are designed to provide stability and help the E80 negotiate everyday outdoor surfaces.
Up to 9° Maximum Climbing Angle
Robooter specifies a maximum climbing angle of 9° for the E80. Gradient performance will depend on operating conditions, including user weight, surface conditions, battery charge and the length of the incline.
