Your Pride Jazzy Ultra Light is the lightest Jazzy ever built, at 33 pounds without its battery, and it earns that name without giving up the things that make a power chair genuinely useful. It has larger 10.71 inch rear drive wheels, a roomier 18 by 18 inch mesh seat, front suspension, and rear lights that come on when you are moving. It folds nearly flat in seconds with an audible click that tells you the frame is locked, then tows behind you like a suitcase.
Pride builds this chair around two battery options, and the choice comes down to how you travel. The standard 10 amp hour pack weighs 5 pounds and is the airline compliant option, delivering up to 8 miles at 200 pounds and 7 miles at 300 pounds. The optional 20 amp hour pack weighs 7 pounds and more than doubles your range to 16.4 miles at 200 pounds and 14.4 miles at 300 pounds, which is a meaningful difference on full day outings.
One important note before you choose: Pride specifies the airline compliant battery as the 10Ah only. If flying is part of your life, order the 10Ah. Airline policies on the larger pack’s watt hour rating vary and it is not covered by that claim, so if you want maximum range and still fly occasionally, confirm with your carrier or keep a 10Ah on hand for trips. Plenty of Ultra Light owners keep both, since two packs together weigh only 12 pounds.
We stock the genuine Pride OEM packs rather than aftermarket substitutes. Pride states that airline approval of its chairs depends on using the original manufacturer battery, and that replacement or non-original equipment may not meet approval for air travel. On the 10Ah especially, that matters, since a generic battery could quietly cost you the capability you bought this chair for.
Your battery ships partially charged, which is standard for safe lithium transport, so charge it fully before your first outing. Installation takes minutes with no tools: power off the chair, release the old pack, seat the new one until it locks, and power back on. A lithium pack’s management system can enter protection mode during shipping or storage and briefly read as having no voltage, which is normal rather than a defect; connecting your charger usually wakes it up. Shipping is free, your order leaves our warehouse within three business days, and real people answer our phone whenever you have a question.
