Ghost Ring Accelerator
Ghost Ring Accelerator
The Ghost Ring is a unique and innovative design, it is the World’s First rotating electronic accelerator. Fully tested and approved, simply rotate the ring placed discretely behind the steering wheel to accelerate. Thanks to the unique design very little space is required to complete the installation, its reduced dimensions and alternative installation method ensures a Comfortable and Familiar driving position for the user.
Finished in soft Italian Leather allowing it to integrate perfectly with a vehicles interior. This product requires very little strength in the hand or fingers to operate and so is well suited to people with reduced capabilities in these areas. Braking is operated either with the original pedal or via an additional Brake Lever being installed in the vehicle.
Additional Features
Every installation comes complete with a Motor Reduction Button which reduces the accelerator power by 50%. This can reduce any stress in built up traffic, or when parking. It can also help whilst the user is first learning to use the adaptation by acting as a 'Limiter'.
A Brake Safety Switch is featured in the installation of the Brake Lever, or retro-fitted to the original pedal. Upon activation of this switch the Ghost Ring Accelerator is automatically deactivated allowing you to safely perform an emergency stop should the occasion arise. To regain acceleration simply release the brake and accelerator.
