Don Dunkee converted his EVT 4000E scooter into a mobile electric solar power station complete with fold out solar panels. He has a set of panels that can generate up to 120 watts/hour which charge the on board battery for the scooter. Great way to charge the battery while it's sitting outside all day. So far he's put 900 miles on it using sun juice.
