The panels he found will work, but the other specs (the controller) or requirements is where the engineering comes into play.
As far as boost we'll know after a month or so I suppose, but hope to see about 50%, or 50-75 miles perhaps, remember the solar is charging all day even though the batteries are being used (depleted).
I was asking these questions to see what folks desired in an elec cart.
It's unfortunate that I have yet to get serious feedback.
If the demand isn't found here than it goes on the back burner I suppose.

why not check with one of the many companies that already make them, you can see if they sell parts and learn about the controllers and such that are out there
