I bought a solar panel for the roof of my Club Car about a year ago. It is not a hard top which you see sometimes. It's glued to the roof of the cart. Since I have had this panel I have noticed an increase in mileage and the batteries seem to last longer when travelling around. In other words the battery indicator doesn't drop as fast. I have had these batteries for over 3 years and they are still good, probably thanx somewhat to the solar panel.

You won't get amazing results from a solar panel but it does improve battery performance.

I purchased my panel from Solar for golf carts (solarforgolfcarts.com).
