Hi everyone ,

I write to share results of my research in case it can help help someone else.

For jack

-apparently there are some porsche car jack very low. didn t find one particularly low.
- if money is not an issue the best solution is probably the 1or 1.5 inch at minimal jack from calcarcover

- For air pumping device i have not found one that lifts more than 2.5 inch or so and it is a bit hard to hand pump them , i have a pair. Slow and i have to do 2 towers alternating . too long.
- for the moment i choose to go with the aluminium 1T 8cm low at minimal.30 dollars. it is too high for the quantum chair but if i put it under the rear caster horizontal frame i can lift it . place block under the chair . loose it and relift it from under the chair. With the ratchet style hand crank.

I hope it will be usefull to some of you .
For jack the calcar seems to be the choice if you have the money. The other companies making similar have stopped selling their version. calcar seems the only one left.

Hum not sure where someone can place that to lift the chair. It does not go under. But it goes very low.

I've just used this to clear snow from my ramp and paths and sent it with my wife to her parents to clear theirs. 2 dogs(70lb) walked all over it without any damage or even noticing it was there. It feels just barely warm, so it wont burn you. I spent some time laying on it, but the dogs were too busy to lay down with me. It draws just under 600w. That would take 25A from your chair batteries which is a lot, but maybe ok for an hour or 2 if the chair cant move anyway.
Its a bit much, but the only outdoor electric heated blanket I have experience with. Propane catalytic heaters like Mr. Buddy work really well. I've used those ice fishing. I have an old swiss army surplus green wool blanket that I love. 2 electric pocket warmers. I like them all. Heat is a hard thing to screw up unless it burns you. Charging your phone generates heat. Put it under your shirt to keep warm. Warm your chest and let your blood carry heat to extremities. If there is any area you know has poor circulation, heat it directly to avoid frostbite. If you can carry a Thermos of hot liquid like coffee, tea, soup, that makes it a picnic and makes the time waiting easier.

For air lift, what is the strongest muscle you have good control over? Is it your hands? Can you pump a handle, or a footpump with any part of your body? That will get the airbags you already have higher if you can put more pressure in them.
