Solar Power Electrics

Archive for May, 2010

http://www.DIYSolarPowerGuides.com – For those who wish to go green (solar or wind

energy for the home) but can’t afford the lump sum it typically costs up front;

give the do-it-yourself option a try for a small investment of just $50 for

instructions & plans. Also check out the true benefits of solar energy and how it’s

applied, these systems are becoming more common and more affordable throughout the

U.S. and the rest of the world.

A fun project for me and my son to build. We were inspired by two solar motors on display by Tom K. at the 2007/08 First Lego League state tournament in Illinois. We included the levitation after watching http://youtube.com/watch?v=N3NU22KxDaQ, details at http://mtinfopage.com/mendocin.htm. Special thanks to Tom for providing guidance. All parts, besides the legos, came from Radio Shack

The Dream Car – Dreamcar123
http://www.dreamcar123.com
With energy prices going through the roof, it’s time to consider what we can do about it. Dreamcar is a practical auto concept that is using existing technology adapted to it. With our Dreamcar we are putting 80 batteries into a single auto frame that will have a lot of energy storage. This auto frame is built for one reason. To prove that this more batteries can make this car go long range. and the frame is made to hold this amount of batteries. The frame wraps around all four wheels to protect them. This auto has a new power configuration that includes four independent electrical motors. Each motor will drive a single wheel. This motor design is made so that it fits into the hub of the wheels. The motors are fixed onto the frame and do not include a steering system. There will be no more rack and pinion no tie-rods, no power steering system, no pumps or belts. Instead, there will be a joystick for steering. This is much like a bobcat bulldozer. The faster the motors go on one side makes the car turn. This auto will be able to turn around on a spot. Making turning in tight places easy. You will see this Dreamcar in our shop here in ILLINOIS. the photo’s show the frame under construction. They also show the completed auto. The body is made of 1/2″ thick Luxon bullet-proof plexy type glass. This car has been built for maximum protection of the driver. This is the new NASCAR-type frame and cage that is now being used. The driver is in the center of the car to protect him from any side impact. there is also a nosecone made of thick steel bars and Luxon. The car has been called “Like a space-ship.” at night the body (white) is lit from the inside to make the car very visible for safety. A dreamcar can be seen going in any direction. We could go on explaining this auto for a long time so instead we are now building the DREAMCAR. Feel free to contact us at 630-466-7170 24/7 or e-mail us at chriszanis@aol.com We need donations to get this auto on the road any donations would be great.

In this segment from the Hippy Gourmet TV show, we visit with Bob Schneeveis, the inventor of the Solar Powered Walking Chariot!
Bob is a brilliant and eccentric character who studies nature and then turns it into sustainable, solar-electric vehicles and gadgets…
Bob also donates his time to students studying robotics, and certainly gets our award for being the truest of nutty professors!
Check out how clean powered engine drives these legs and rollerblades in such a human-like fashion…amazing! This thing actually has a lot of kick to it and is capable of covering all kinds of terrain it seems.
Best of all, this chariot demonstrates that earth-happy innovations and creativity are all around us.
