Why Should You Buy A SunCatcher Solar Panel Canopies For Your Electric Golf Cart?

1. Reduce Cost of Charging Batteries by at least 30%.

A 120-volt battery charger is rated to draw 10 amps of power. The power you use in charging the batteries is measured in kilowatt-hours. The formula is volts times amps equals watts: 120v x 10 amps = 1200 watts: 1200 watts = 1.2 kilowatts

When the charger is first plugged in, it draws close to 10 full amps for a few minutes and then drops off to 5 or 6 amps for the majority of the remaining charging time. The recommended time to achieve full charge is five hours. The last couple of hours the charger draws slightly over 1 amp. Studies over a thirty-day period have determined the average amount of power consumed is consistent with the following formula.

120 volts x 4 amps x 5 hrs = 2400 watt hours

The solar panel charging system delivers 2.4 amps at 36 volts = 90 watt hours

Ensuring the golf car is outside for 10 hours each day produces the following results.

2.4 amps x 36 volts x 10 hours = 864 watts: 864 watts divided by 2400 watts = 36% savings

2. Double the Battery Life

The number of times a battery can be cycled before it is worn out increases significantly as the percentage depth of discharge declines. A battery, which is required to deliver 50% of its power, will provide 30% to 50% more cycles than when it is drained to 80% depth of discharge. In other words the battery will last approximately twice as long if it is continually being charged. There is sulfur in the acid that has a tendency to settle, and become a solid, as the battery is discharged. To keep the sulfur mixed with acid the battery has to be recharged. A battery that is being charged continuously has a boiling effect to keep the sulfur from separating from the acid and becoming a solid. This produces a longer battery life.
