Perfect for caregivers
  • With the new Empulse R20 power-assist device, it has never been so easy to support the attendant pushing the wheelchair. Whether uphill, downhill, or on long trips, the R20 helps in every situation while having zero detrimental impact when self-propelling. This foldable and lightweight power-assist device is easily transported, either attached or detached from the wheelchair with its handy backpack.

    The Empulse R20 is compatible with most folding & tilt-in-space manual wheelchairs.

Safety and the ride

Safe on all types of terrain and surfaces

Whether you use the Smoov on gravel, wet roads, or on cobblestones, the tire treads along with the innovative drive system help you reach your destination safely.
Even in the dark, feel safe with SMOOV one thanks to its integrated LED light.

The SMOOV one takes you to places that were once too difficult to navigate. It’s reliable not only on a wide variety of even and uneven surfaces, but also hills and slopes of up to 16% are no problem for SMOOV one.

 
Smooth transport and folding ability

The Empulse R20 is the only foldable power-assist device on the market. It’s easy to transport, even when still attached to the wheelchair. The R20’s folding ability and light weight allows smooth transport while attached or separate from the wheelchair. It’s easy to handle and store for all situations in every day life, including travel activities.

The click-fix docking system allows easy docking without using any tools. Only the small docking pin remains on the wheelchair, minimizing added weight and parts.
