Young man develops electric motorcycle using wood and solar panels; vehicle can run for a week without recharging

A young Ghanaian has developed an electric motorcycle that uses solar energy and can run for a week without recharging. The vehicle also has a radio and bluetooth speaker, in addition to solar panels.

At the age of 17, Ghanaian Samuel Aboagye is already a great inventor. After going viral by building a bluetooth speaker with just a gallon of plastic, the young man is back in the headlines with yet another new invention: an electric motorcycle made of wood that uses solar panels. According to Samuel, the solar energy was chosen with the aim of reducing CO₂ emissions into the environment. The electric motorcycle is recharged using electricity, but has a solar panel that contributes to expanding autonomy. According to Samuel, the vehicle can be used for about a week without charging.

Young man develops electric motorcycle with wood that would be used as firewood 

For the project to come to life, Samuel gathered old parts, even from other bicycles, as well as wood, which would be used as firewood. At first, he thought of developing an electric car, however, due to the little money he had to invest in the project, he opted to develop an electric car. Electric motorcycle with solar panels.

According to information from the inventor, there is a lot of wood in his house and the neighbors use it as firewood in their fires. One day, the young Ghanaian noticed that that firewood could be used for another purpose. Samuel says that he even received donations on the street after he started to parade with the electric motorcycle.

The young man claims that a person gave him 100 cedis, which in direct conversion is equivalent to R$87, because he found his solar-powered electric motorcycle interesting. The money was used to buy a battery for the vehicle's engine, which even came from her mother's sewing machine. The first prototype that Samuel developed was powered by batteries from 20 phones and took about two weeks to build.

Electric motorcycle with solar panels still has radio and bluetooth technology

According to Samuel, sometimes he doesn't quite know what he's doing, but when the idea comes to his mind he knows exactly what to do. However, sometimes it is necessary to give up your own food to buy materials for the project.

Who helped the young man in the process of building his electric motorcycle powered by solar energy was his science teacher, David Sam Haigan. He was responsible for guiding him in putting the energy on the motorcycle. The young man's vehicle also has a bluetooth speaker and a radio that can tune into more than 100 stations in Accra, the country's capital.

The young man claims that, before his father died of diabetes, he told him to do his best in everything he did and not to care what people would say, because he would become a good person. 

Indian Youtuber develops electric motorcycle with only one wheel

In November last year, a Indian YouTuber has developed a self-balancing electric motorcycle that uses only one wheel. The vehicle has a wide wheel equipped with a hub motor. The Indian points out that wider wheels are easier to balance compared to thinner ones.

With the bike's structure completely done, the Indian installed a self-balancing sensor on the vehicle. The sensor is one of the most important technologies in the project, and it is through this component that the electric motorcycle manages to stay upright.

The sensor part demands attention and must be installed correctly and firmly, preventing the calibration of the gyroscope, which keeps the vehicle standing, from being affected.
