RE: (ET) Solar Power

[Larry Elie <lelie ford com>]

How about this thought; It was recently claimed that the charge cost was 
just a 'few' cents.  
Now if one builds a 'cheap' solar charger for say, $100, it implies one 
would have to use it 
hundreds of times to make it worth while.  I'm not sure a charger you 
could build for $100 
would charge the ET in one week.  Perhaps next decade, but not yet.

I've thought about this also, it sounds like a good idea. But I'm 
waiting until I get everything ironed out with my tractor first.

Is anyone out there using solar power in conjunction with their Elec 
Trak? I was thinking about building a solar charger that recharge the 
power pac in about a weeks time. Any thoughts on this would be 
appreciated...
