What is FeatherLite?

Sure Grip’s FeatherLite (FL) controls are the next generation in column mount controls. By utilizing the OEM vehicle electronic signal to manipulate the throttle, we eliminate any mechanical linkage between the driving aid and vehicle’s gas pedal. This in turn increases the driver’s leg and lap room and decreases the need for dash modifications. Along with these benefits the FL controls also provide new levels of safety with their one source acceleration technology.

FeatherLite controls are available for virtually any vehicle and any need.  They can be mounted for left or right hand use, and in various control configurations including push/rock, push/pull, push/twist and push/right angle.

Hand controls can be paired with any variety of switches to provide access to secondary controls such as horn, wiper/wash, dimmer, radio, telephone/bluetooth, etc.  These can be integrated directly into the hand control or spinner knob, or accessed via bluetooth switches mounted anywhere in the vehicle.

Installation time and robustness:

  • Digital calibration: Precisely calibrates our system to mimic the OEM pedal in a matter of seconds.

  • Advanced diagnostic indicators to guide the installation and diagnose issues.

  • Dual microprocessors, redundancy and integration with the standard OEM fault tolerance to ensure that there is no loss of safety.

Safety Features:

  • Buzzer for activation notifications and brake-throttle notifications.

  • Intelligent activation will only allow swapping between systems at idle.

  • Fully redundant signal processing. The system will only activate if redundant microcontrollers agree.

  • Hand control sensor test and automatic calibration every ignition cycle ensures the maximum safety without sacrificing performance. 

Performance:

  • Automatic recalibration over the life of the system means that you will never find dead spots in your accelerator.

  • Always achieve the responsive driving feel from the hand controls.

  • City Mode feature allows for an optional sensitivity adjustment.

  • Instant acceleration responsiveness gives the same feel of the OEM pedal, which is unachievable with mechanical gas systems.

  • Spring tension adjustment allows for a hand control that meets your strength requirements.

  • No gas rod means increased leg and lap room.

  • Single source acceleration means that only one driving device can be active at a time (OEM pedal or hand control).

  • The activation button provides an easy and deliberate way to switch between the OEM pedal and hand control.
