These thumb throttle buttons mount on the wheelchair frame near the push locks and give the client a direct way to start and stop the SmartDrive without lifting a hand off the rim for long. A press and hold gives a burst of power, and a latch holds power on for a longer run.
They suit a client who finds a wrist worn controller awkward or unreliable, and a client who wants the control fixed in one known place on the chair every time. Mounting straps are included, so the button position can be set where the thumb naturally falls.
Top speed is capped while driving from the buttons, which is often useful indoors and in crowded spaces.
