Hi Richard, At the risk of sounding like Cliff Clavin from the sitcom Cheers; the interesting thing you probably (or may not) know about the OmegaTrack is that it was invented, designed and manufactured by a man named Jim Finch, a C2 complete quadriplegic. He was able to breath without a vent

I have an older Omegatrac, circa 2001, and I have the chin control. It might be extremely difficult to try to repair and modify chin controller with sip and puff. The chin control does the entire sequencing of all of the functions. The only place in the United States where you can get parts is

Thanks for the reply. I did know about the design origin of the OmegaTrac. Back in the day I spoke and corresponded frequently with Jim Finch (the high quad designer of the Omegatrac), and his father Tom Finch. I first met them in 1998 (I think) and saw some of them a few times thereafter.
