Solar Powered Go Kart How To:
 : 06.21.2012 |
| Description: | In this project we took a go kart frame ready for a gas engine
and made it electric. We used a 48V battery pack, an EMC brushed DC motor, Alltrax speed controller and 0-5kOhm pot box
throttle for the drive system, and a 190W Astronergy solar panel for the fuel source. The PDF link above includes all the
notes from the project on what the componenets are, how much they cost and where we got them from. The entire project
cost about $2500 and took a few hours a week for several months. See this link for the project wiring diagram.
We've also posted this project on Instructables.com. Check it out at the link! |
