hi jen have no idea as i have no odometer that tells me how many miles are kilometer.
i know they can plug there programer in and tell you how many hours your chair has.
i guess a person could get a good idea buy devideing the speed the chair goes into one hour.
are some thing sort like they for gas millage and how long it takes to get some were based on so many miles an hour like the speed limit.
but in the case of my chair you would never have it corect.
as you read my response you will see why.
but it is tons of hours on it as i go every were as i have a service dog and we are always on the move.
infact chair just truned 5.
in the 5 years i have had the chair and i have had it since it was brand new as it was custom made to my body specs like all high end power chairs.
i have bin through so many tires i can not remeber.
infact i get a new set of drive tires about every 3 months and new casters like 3 to 4 and some times more a year.
i have also bin through 4 set of the manul elevating leg rests.
3 set of the brackets that are on the leg rest mounting bracket that lock the leg rest from moving.
2 sets of front and rear caster fork bearings.
6 motors 2 eletronic control models and i am in need of 2 more motors as we speak as i one is leaking and they only replace the motors in pairs.
but i do have the motor repaired and it is not leaking at presant.
i am not sure how long it was leaking before my chair giver spoted it.
so i am not sure how long it will live.
also if the repair guy saw what i did he would probly shoot me.
reason being is the motors acording to invacare are no severicable and are to be replaced if there is a problem.
so there working on getting me a new chair as they say mine is not worth putting any more money into it.
also because my condtion has got worse to the point i need power tilt/reline and elevating leg rests
they have it would just be cheaper to replace my chair.
reason being they said to ad the upgrades i need they would have to go intirely through my chair from the ground up and inspect it to make sure everything was up to par.
than they would have to change the intire eletronics as my chair is just your standard tdx3 with upgraded 400lb motors and a standard rehad seat with a roho cushion a j2 contor back.
than they would have to add the power tilt/recline and power elevating leg rest.
also said buy the time they dis all this a new chair would cost lees.
they also said due to the high usage all though they went through all this work there was the chance the chair would not last for very long.
this is all i can tell you as this is what they told me.
sorry about the long post.
but i can never sleep and some nights i get on the computer for ever instead of just laeing in bed.
reason being is can not always lay are sit for long periods of time.
this vairs so bad that i never know from day to day.
