Red Solar Golf Cart


















Above is a February 2005 message from Dan Lehmen of Danco Enterprises, who gives us an update on his solar golf cart project:

"Thought you might be interested in my latest solar conversion. This "57 Chevy" replica sports four Shell 75 watt solar panels connected to a Xantrex C40 controller. The car is powered by an 11.1 h.p. electric motor on a 48 volt system. ( it is capable of speeds up to 28 mph ).It is being prepared for a safety inspection and will be licensed for use on city streets this spring. Testing is incomplete, but preliminary tests have exceeded expectations! I have attached a picture of the cart."
