Well getting side tracked with two big projects on my home, it's back on the top of my short list to get two on the road.

The pics below were taken in June to show it is fact a reality.

In Brownwood after a 46 mile test run, battery bank still showed 45% reserve left.

This one has not been plugged into a charger in several years.

This is not a fancy cart it is the proto type, bare bones, it is running on 4 not 6 batteries.

Four 12V AGM (glass matt batteries)

I have two carts the body on one for paint the other is getting a full body replacement.



I have tested one at 73 miles already.


.
So when will these be available to the general public and what will the cost be?
