The new electric Go-Kart in action

First time taking a couple laps around the parking lot in the new Go-Kart. It's 24volts with a 350watt motor.

i there a website

[unaclocker]

@saadmetla I built it, you could build one too.

how long does it last cus i hate electrics for that reason they take to long to  charge

[unaclocker]

@popsnacks2 With the cheap lawnmower batteries, a couple hours, 2-3 depending on how hard it's being ridden. Bigger batteries would go longer. Charge time could be solved by hot swapping the batteries. Keep a couple on the charge while riding it. 3 hour charge time would be perfectly safe for the batteries.

put a real engine in it, 300cc

@georgequinn12 You mean 3kw.. heh.. No gas powered engines for me. My kids are the next generation, they're all electric. :)

I built the Neurotikart (seen in videos here on YouTube), and I really *need* to make something like this. The NK1 and NK2 are fine for irresponsible adults, but a little too much for kids. I like this. Also, it's a lot easier to start with an existing frame and convert, rather than scratch build, as I did. Nice work.

@THizzle80

Actually, only 45% of our power comes from coal, and electric motors make more efficient use of power (85%) than internal combustion engines which waste 75% of the power in gasoline as waste heat and transmission losses. I cannot post links here for some reason but if you google "mit wheel to well analysis of evs" without quotes, the first result is an MIT study demonstrating that EVs are cleaned than gas vehicles even on the current grid.

@unaclocker I don't see why electric would be any more the future than a super efficient gasoline engine. That power still has to come from somewhere, and it mainly comes from coal now, so it aint much better for the environment

@unaclocker better start saving for a tesla then.

@unaclocker ...okay! ...c’est la vie baby!!!

When i'm done school i'll learn about electricity and soldering stuff so i can build my own go cart :D

[meandjanaysfavorites]

@unaclocker Really, Well Can you make some with more speed. In my imagination I thoguht it would go super fast. But not like car speed. i Would love to drift in the snow. It would be hilarious! Let me know soon

[hotdogpooya]

go johny!
