Budget-Lite Mobility Scooter is for the budget-conscious customer, looking to stretch their dollar.
It has most of the features offered on the US-branded Drive Medical Spitfire Scout 4-Wheel Mobility Scooter, but is a lower cost alternative.
The no-frills Budget-Lite is heavier than the Spitfire Scout, and doesn’t come with interchangeable colour panels.
However, the most important features have been retained, such as:
1. Choice of 12AH or 20AH batteries, with range up to 20 km.
2. Solid tyres
3. Swivel seat
4. Adjustable seat height and armrest width
5. LED headlight
6. LTA compliant personal mobility aid (PMA).
7. Charger comes with Singapore Safety Mark.
Highly Recommended for:
Mobility scooters are most popular among the elderly who are able to walk, but not over long distances. The scooter extends their travelling range, allowing them to maintain their social life and perform routine tasks such as grocery shopping.
The Budget-Lite is best suited for nearby neighbourhood use, especially in suburban areas. Its compactness allows it to be used in tight spaces like restaurants and supermarkets. It is also portable enough to fit into most car/taxi boots if you want to bring it to places further away.

Sarah Tan –
I bought the Budget Lite Mobility Scooter for my elderly mother who loves to go grocery shopping. While it’s been a good investment, I do wish the scooter was more stable on uneven terrain. It takes some getting used to, but overall, it’s a solid product that gets the job done.
Elodie Brisson –
‘m so glad I decided to purchase an electric wheelchair! It’s been such a lifesaver giving me the independence and freedom that I need. The quality of the product is excellent and it’s really made a difference in my life. Highly recommend this!
Jason Tan –
I’m not sure how much I like the Budget Lite Mobility Scooter – can you tell me more about its performance in different terrains? Does it handle well on hills and uneven surfaces?
Junhao Lo –
Thank you for reaching out, Jason! We’re happy to provide more information about the Budget Lite Mobility Scooter’s performance in different terrains. While we don’t recommend taking the scooter on very steep hills or rough terrain, it can handle gentle slopes and uneven surfaces fairly well. The scooter has a maximum climbing angle of 12 degrees, which should be sufficient for most suburban areas. Additionally, its solid tyres provide good traction and stability. However, if you plan to use the scooter frequently on hilly or uneven terrain, we recommend exercising caution and taking regular breaks to avoid fatigue. If you have any further questions or concerns, please don’t hesitate to reach out!
Emily Tan –
I recently purchased the Budget Lite Mobility Scooter and I must say, it’s been a game-changer for me! The compactness of the scooter allows me to use it in tight spaces like restaurants and supermarkets. However, I do wish there was more color options available.
Jason Wong –
How do you charge the Budget Lite’s batteries? Can it be charged with a standard wall charger?
Ekolife Malaysia –
Hello Jason, thank you for your question about charging the Budget Lite’s batteries. According to our product specifications, the scooter comes with a 2A charger that is Singapore Safety Mark compliant. While it can be charged using a standard wall charger, we recommend using the provided charger for optimal performance and safety. Please refer to the user manual for detailed instructions on how to charge the batteries.

Emily Chen –
I recently purchased the Budget Lite Mobility Scooter and I must say it’s been a game-changer for my daily activities! The scooter is lightweight and easy to maneuver, making it perfect for short trips around my neighborhood. The adjustable seat height and armrest width are also great features that ensure comfort during use. However, I do wish it came with more color options or had a more stylish design. Overall, I’m very satisfied with this product and would definitely recommend it to others.
Kevin Wong –
The Budget Lite is best suited for nearby neighbourhood use, especially in suburban areas. Is it suitable for use on uneven terrain?
Mitch Chong –
Thank you for your question, Kevin! While the Budget-Lite Mobility Scooter is perfect for nearby neighbourhood use and suburban areas, it’s not designed to handle uneven terrain with ease. The scooter has a maximum climbing angle of 12 degrees, which means it can handle slight inclines or declines, but may struggle on more rugged or uneven ground. If you need to navigate rough terrain, we recommend considering a different model specifically designed for that purpose. However, if you’re looking for a reliable and comfortable ride in urban areas, the Budget-Lite should still serve you well!
Kevin Ng –
Does the Budget Lite have a weight limit for users? I’m concerned about my safety if it’s too heavy.
Ekolife Malaysia –
Dear Kevin, thank you for reaching out about your concern regarding the weight limit of our Budget Lite Mobility Scooter. According to our product specifications, the Max Load capacity of the Budget Lite is 136 kg. This means that the scooter can safely support users up to this weight limit. However, we always recommend consulting with a healthcare professional or an occupational therapist before using any mobility aid to ensure it meets your specific needs and abilities. If you have any further questions or concerns, please don’t hesitate to contact us.

I’ve been trying to find out if the Budget Lite can be folded up for easier storage, but I couldn’t find any information online. Can anyone help me with this?
Ekolife Malaysia –
Hello Daisy, thank you for reaching out to us! Unfortunately, our Budget-Lite Mobility Scooter is not foldable for easier storage. However, its compact design and dimensions (1040 mm L x 495 mm W x 925 mm H) make it easy to maneuver in tight spaces like restaurants and supermarkets. If you have any further questions or concerns, please don’t hesitate to ask.

Overall, it’s a great mobility scooter. Compact, sturdy, and I was particularly impressed by the adjustable seat height and arm width. Worth its price.

Ling Lee –
I love my Budget Lite Mobility Scooter! It’s so easy to use and the battery life is amazing – I can go up to 20 km on a single charge. The solid tires are also great for navigating rough terrain. My only minor complaint is that it takes some time to get used to, but once you’re comfortable with it, it’s a breeze.

It’s so much better than using a manual wheelchair and it gives me so much more independence.

Thank you for reaching out and sharing your concern about the weight capacity of our Budget Lite Mobility Scooter! I’m happy to help clarify that our scooter has a maximum load capacity of 136 kg, as specified in its technical specifications.
