TheWizardofRnR Posted May 6, 2012 Share Posted May 6, 2012 (edited) With the disgraceful price of short trips in Patong Beach being so expensive , I think instead of catching tuk-tuks , I'd prefer to find where I can get my manual Wheelchair converted to electric! Someone mentioned that the Lion's Club had a program to help poor Thai folks upgrade their WCs free and it was in Phuket City . I'm not looking to get it done for free , but affordable ! Being I fit into the poor category more likely then the rich!! Any info on where I can find the shop doing these upgrades , will be greatly appreciated and vastly improve my ability to live a better lifestyle ,Thx Edited May 6, 2012 by LivinginKata reformat font Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stevehaigh Posted May 6, 2012 Share Posted May 6, 2012 i wonder if you could by a kit somewhere and have a local bike shop fit it. the local mechanics are usually pretty adept that making things fit that were never intended to fit there in the first place Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ping Posted May 13, 2012 Share Posted May 13, 2012 Ah, wheelchair! Yes, I thought an auto water closet was a bit much... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KarenBravo Posted May 13, 2012 Share Posted May 13, 2012 There was bloke that I used to see in some of the bars in Chalong and Rawai. He had a side-car attached to his Honda Dream with a ramp that could be lowered. He would use this to get his WC into the side-car, swing across to the motorbike's seat and drive the motor-bike that had had it's controls modified so that they were all used by hand.

Guest Posted May 15, 2012 Share Posted May 15, 2012 This does not help with your current search, but someone might be interested of the wheel chair development. http://www.interestingengineering.com/2012/02/solo-electric-wheelchair-concept.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
