Overview
The SuperHandy Explorer is a folding four-wheel scooter that runs two swappable 48V batteries and rolls over grass and gravel on all-terrain tires. It weighs about 64 pounds and folds in two steps for the car.
Key Features of the Explorer
All-terrain pneumatic tires that roll smoothly over sidewalks, grass, and packed gravel.
500W brushless motor with a top speed of up to 6.25 mph and a gentle 4 mph low setting.
Two swappable 48V lithium batteries that add up to about 10 miles of range.
Lightweight aluminum frame that folds in two simple steps for the car trunk.
Four-wheel stance with front and rear suspension for a steady, planted ride.
Dual disc brakes that bring you to a confident stop.
Built for More Than Smooth Pavement
The Explorer rides on cushioned pneumatic tires with front and rear suspension, so bumps in the sidewalk and soft patches of grass do not rattle you around. The 8.5 inch front wheels and 10 inch rear wheels keep the ride level, and the all-terrain tread grips loose gravel and packed dirt when you head off the paved path.
Two Batteries You Can Swap Anywhere
Two 48V lithium batteries slide in and out by hand, and each one carries you about 5 miles for a combined range near 10 miles. Bring the spare along on a longer trip and swap it in when the first runs low. Each battery recharges in around 1.5 hours, so a topped up pack is never far away.
Folds Down and Travels Light
The whole scooter weighs about 64 pounds and folds in two steps to roughly 39 inches long and under 18 inches tall. The aluminum frame keeps the heaviest single piece near 50 pounds, which makes it far easier to lift into a trunk or store in a closet than a steel scooter of the same size.
A Stable Four-Wheel Ride
Four wheels give the Explorer a wide, planted footprint that many riders find reassuring on slopes and uneven ground. Dual disc brakes handle the stopping, a reverse setting helps you back out of tight spots at a careful 2 mph, and the padded seat and adjustable handlebars let you find a comfortable position for the whole ride.
SuperHandy backs this product with a one year limited warranty against defects in materials and workmanship under normal use, measured from the date of the original purchase. Coverage goes to the original buyer.
Normal wear items and damage from misuse, accidents, unauthorized repairs or modifications, and natural disasters are not covered. To make a claim, contact us with a description of the issue and your proof of purchase and we help arrange replacement parts or a replacement product.
If something goes wrong, reach out to us first at 1-888-233-5563. We can often sort out a fix over the phone or ship a replacement part.
How much weight can the SuperHandy Explorer carry?
The Explorer is rated for riders up to 350 lb, and that rating covers everything on the scooter, including bags in the baskets. The aluminum frame keeps the scooter itself to about 64 lb. The padded seat and adjustable handlebars let you set a comfortable position. Do not ride over the rated weight.
How far can the Explorer go on a charge?
Up to about 10 miles with both batteries, roughly 5 miles per battery. The two 48V lithium packs swap by hand, so you can ride on one and switch to the other when it runs low. Rider weight, hills, grass and cold weather shorten the real range.
How fast does the SuperHandy Explorer go?
The Explorer reaches up to 6.25 mph from its 500W brushless hub motor. A speed dial lets you set a gentle 4 mph pace indoors, and reverse runs at a careful 2 mph. You steer with the handlebars, control speed with a thumb throttle and stop with dual disc brakes.
How small does the Explorer fold for a car trunk?
The Explorer folds in two steps to about 39.4 in long, 22 in wide and 17.7 in tall. It weighs about 64 lb, and the heaviest piece is near 50 lb. Pull the batteries out first to make each lift lighter, then load it into a trunk or back seat.
Can the SuperHandy Explorer ride on grass and gravel?
Yes. The Explorer has all-terrain pneumatic tires, 8.5 in in front and 10 in at the rear, plus front and rear suspension and 3.3 in of ground clearance. Short grass, packed dirt and loose gravel are all within its use. It is not made to sit out in the rain, so store it under cover.
How do I charge the Explorer batteries?
Each 48V lithium battery lifts out by hand and plugs into the wall charger. A battery recharges in about 1.5 hours, on or off the scooter, so it is easy to keep a spare charged by the door.
Can I take the SuperHandy Explorer on a plane?
Its batteries are within the federal size limit. Each 48V 2Ah lithium pack holds about 96 Wh. Federal rules allow a removable mobility aid battery up to 300 Wh in the cabin, plus spares up to 160 Wh each, and airlines may ask for 48 hours notice. Confirm with your airline before you fly.
What comes with the Explorer?
The Explorer comes with two 48V lithium batteries, the charger, two storage baskets, a storage bag and a quick start guide. A third battery is the most popular add-on, so you can keep riding while two charge, and a rear storage box is available for groceries and errands.
Will Medicare or insurance pay for the SuperHandy Explorer?
Medicare will not pay, because Heavy Duty Mobility does not hold a Medicare supplier number. We also do not bill private insurance directly. Some private plans reimburse buyers outside Medicare, so ask your insurer, and we can provide an invoice and proof of purchase for your claim.
How is my scooter delivered?
Delivery to your curb is free. Check the packaging and the scooter before you sign for it, and call 1-888-233-5563 if anything looks wrong.
How do I order?
Call 1-888-233-5563. We confirm the build, the price and the delivery with you and place the order on the phone.
Can I talk to someone before I buy?
Yes. Call 1-888-233-5563. Real people answer, business hours and weekends.

We recently purchased a power wheel chair and had a great experience from start to finish. The process was smooth, communication was clear, and everything was delivered exactly as promised. The pricing was fair, and the quality exceeded our expectations. Highly recommend and looking forward to working together again!

Great Experience!
Super helpful team in helping us make a decision. We needed a scooter that we could modify to carry our 2 Jack Russell’s at trials. This scooter worked out perfectly. Please let them help you. I’m sure there are bigger companies, but I felt we got such personal attention. It was an amazing experience. Delivery was just a few days. Remarkable!

Auto Fold
I needed a mobility scooter that was auto-folding, but not overly engineered where problems can arise, was not too heavy to lift by myself, would easily fit in the trunk of my car, and not be overly expensive. Wishful thinking I thought. Until I discovered the MOJO on my computer. This scooter ticked all my boxes, and more. It is comfortable, well built, is easy to charge the batteries without having to bend down to remove them, and even if you do want to remove them they are accessible from the standing position. the tiller is fully adjustable as are the arm rests, the folding/unfolding functions are easily initiated, and the axle release is easily achieved. A well engineered piece of kit. Now, for the customer service: I can honestly say that I have never come across anything like it; it is absolutely perfect. The gentleman I dealt with 'bent over backwards' to help me without pressuring me into a purchase, and to ensure I was buying a scooter that was right for me. Because I live in New Zealand I knew I was creating a lot more work for him, but he never complained. This and my MOJO are very much appreciated. I am very thankful for the day I first saw the MOJO on the internet. I I now own my very own MOJO.

We are so pleased with the Scoota Trailer we ordered through Heavy Duty Mobility. We dealt with Raphael who could not have be nicer and more helpful. He stayed in close contact letting me know when the manufacturer received the order, when it was complete and when it shipped. The customer service was second to none. It was obvious in all communications with Raphael that he genuinely cared that our son's needs were met with this trailer for his new powerchair. I highly recommend going through Heavy Duty Mobility when ordering equipment for yourself or your handicapped loved ones.

Heavy Duty Mobility did a fine Job.
Heavy Duty Mobility did a fine Job matching me up with the besr mobility scooter to meet my needs. The Afikim S-3 is a high quality piece of equipment. It operates as advertised. It maintains it's speed while ascending the hills in the small town, where I live. Heavy Duty Mobility was by my side throughout the entire purchase process. Even after I took delivery of the fine S-3 scooter and needed to have questions answered about the machine. Jon Fisher Cedarville, MI

I was looking for a scooter for my mother. I researched it online and found some sites that were selling the scooter for the same price. Heavy duty mobility was willing to beat the price as they had a 5% discount. They were also. Extremely kind and helpful. They answered all my questions and what they did not know. They contacted the company to find out and got back to me the same day. They kept me in the loop with shipping and also reached out to me to confirm receipt and to make sure everything was correct and working properly. Very impressed

Top shelf, customer service,
Found the type of Scooter. I wanted to buy online not everyone has the kind of scooter. I have . Talked to Raphael Perlmann about the scooter I wanted. I was a little hesitant at first because they were from Florida. After talking to Raphael I felt a much more comfortable about the idea of having a scooter shipped all across the country am in Seattle WA.
The scooter arrived,in shipping and had a torn seat. Ops Raphael took care of the problem got me a new seat ASP negotiated with the makers of my scooter.for me.
Couple months into having my scooter. I had an issue with the wheel making a noise..
Called my dealer Raphael he worked tirelessly negotiating with the maker of the Scooter to make sure the issue got fixed .
Would’ve loved not to have any issues with my new scooter, but knowing Raphael was on my side, helping me anytime there was an issue to get the problem fixed was a huge blessing.
Raphael Perlmann Has restored my faith in Customer service .
So many companies sell your product and then they don’t care they got their money !
Not that way at heavy mobility scooters store .
I have seen that this company and Raphael Perlmann cares about their customers after the sell.
I will recommend to my mother and any other family member, and friend to order a scooter from Raphael Perlmann ..:
His care and consideration for me and my Scooter has definitely restored my faith and Customer service .
The quality of customer service I receive from him is a wonderful change from the type of customer service I get from businesses I work with and give money to every month .
Other companies couldn’t learn something from this man and heavy mobility Scooter about Customer service .
Thank you
Raphael Perlmann For the caring you show your customers .
Top shelf customer service .

They are very professional, they listen to what you would like to have, and they may make suggestions, but the decisions are up to you.
The person I talked with was very professional.
He knew what products I may like, but in the end it was my choice of what to buy, or not buy.
There was no pressure, just suggestions I appreciate people who don't pressure you into buying something.
