Still using my ugly old 'once upon a time craftsman' second set of 4 trojan T105s, we mostly charge the tractor with a 175 W 30V solar panel which we are going to try to mount as a sunshade. Use the tractor constantly, today used the forklift on front to haul bags of cement for pouring our bedroom floor. The steering failed so went to a joystick with electric actuator, that was interesting but we load the forklift pretty heavily so it failed. Now we use a hydraulic marine steering pump driving a cylinder which has served us now for 2 or 3 years bit heavy for my favorite wife but when the tractor is moving it is not too tough.
