Solar Golf Cart Tops!!

The peel & stick design of Earth Care Products solar golf cart tops makes it easier and more affordable to go green. The unique silicon panels are flexible and lightweight, and almost unbreakable. Even a golf ball can not break them!! This is the only solar golf cart system on the market that can make this guarantee. Switching to a solar power system will improve your carts range between charges, extend battery life, and more. All while doing something great for our environment!!

The secret of this system is in the patent pending three layer "Amorphous Silicon" solar panels that are each tuned to a different frequency of sunlight, allowing the cell to convert more of the solar spectrum into electricity. This "Triple-Junction" cell achieves a higher conversion efficiency and seems to provide extraordinary amounts of energy the more your cart demands!! The first or active top layer captures a portion of the solar spectrum, the remaining sunlight then penetrates to the second layer which captures another part of the spectrum, and then the remaining light is then passed to the third layer and final layer. This gives the cell the ability to convert more of the solar spectrum into electricity, achieving higher efficiency!!

The Thin Film Amorphous Silicon Solar System was designed to charge a 12-24-36-48-72 or 96 Volt battery system by supplying a minimum of 1.35 amps constantly to a 36 or 48 Volt battery bank (extended tops 2-3 amps minimum). This new technology of two and three separate thin line panels has the potential to deliver up to 3-5 amps.

In some studies people have went days, weeks, and even months without charging!!

These revolutionary panels are able to produce watts constantly during direct sunlight, under artificial/fluorescent lighting, in cloudy or shady conditions, and even during rain or stormy weather!! For every hour the top is charging in peak sun, the original charge will maintain its distance!! One additional mile will be added when driving on flat terrain.

The kit easily installs in minutes directly on your existing top, increases the range of your vehicle, extends the life of your batteries, saves 452 lbs per year of CO2 emissions, and allows you to take advantage of great tax rebates for switching to solar.

Designed For Any Passenger Size Cart Each Kit Includes...
* Peel & Stick Solar Golf Cart Top
* Charge Controller To Regulate Voltage & Prevent Over Charging
* Pre-Wired Wiring Harness
* Simple Installation Instructions

Shipping is included with all kits!!

As of January 1, 2006 an investment tax credit of 30% went into effect for utilizing solar power (IRS Form 3468 line 2b allows for a 30% tax credit for investing in solar). The solar panel and batteries are all considered part of a solar system on a vehicle. So, in addition to the solar credit you will be able to write off approximately $325 per year on your battery system!! For more tax credit information please see our solar tax credit article in our faqs blog or check with your CPA.
