So I have two questions.
My chair is a Jazzy. I want to light it up for the holiday. Would Disney have a problem with battery powered led Christmas lights used outside of rides and shows?
We have decorated my daughter's wheelchair many times.
I can't link a picture right now, but I have posted a couple of pictures of her lights.
We've had battery operated and solar powered lights.
I've also seen pictures of people with all sorts of Christmas decorations - lights, tinsel, garland. As long as it doesn't interfere with you driving and could not poke someone, you are good to go.
[/quote]I do not have a key lock. Do others who are able to leave the chair for rides just turn off the controls? Is there something else? Can you tell I paid for this chair myself? Ok, that's more than two questions but I'm getting excited!
And Happy Thanksgiving!

ECVs have keys, but almost no power wheelchairs have keys.
You would just turn it off. When you come back to it, be aware that it is possible that a CM might have put it into freewheel so it could be pushed. Usually. They put ECVs and power wheelchairs out of freewheel, back into gear before parking them. Be aware though that they may not have, so be cautious getting back in and be aware that is a possibility if it won't work when you try to drive it.
Wheelchairs, including power ones, will be parked near the area where you will be boarding. For some attractions, you can stay right in your wheelchair. Although there are some lines that are not
ECV accessible, those lines are wheelchair accessible, even with power wheelchairs.
People pretty much leave mobility devices alone if you take it all the way into the attraction. The issue is when you park them somewhere else, like with the strollers.
There are a couple attractions that are listed as 'must be ambulatory' but in most cases, you will be able to bring your wheelchair right to boarding.
The 'must be ambulatory' include Peter Pan, Tomorrowland Transit Authority, Swiss Family Robinson Treehouse and most of Tom Sawyer Island at MK.
Peter Pan has an accessible line, but wheelchairs must be parked about 10 feet away from the ride vehicle and there is a limited time to board using the moving walkway.
