I'd really like to see one of those panels just mounted to the back above the rear wheel, in that spot where a tray normally goes on those bikes with a thing on the back. then put on a better hub motor and see how far it can go in the sun. maybe with some thoughtful placement you could even manage to mount a 2nd panel somewhere else but I can't think of a good spot.. front of the handlebars is just way too sketchy imo. when you showed the top-down drone shot the obvious spot seemed like on your back, like with a backpack or something. would need to build some angled assembly to face it straight up not at an angle though

You could probably optimise the way the motor drives the wheel. Also, it might be a good idea to implement regenerative braking. Edit: I have another idea to further optimise this thing. Install a solar panel on top of the person riding the bike, so that you can generate more electricity and provide some shade to the rider. Also, getting the panels higher could get them more sunlight.

A few things to make it more efficient... Body position while riding, to catch less wind. Shock absorbers on the panel wheels. Use a build-in-wheel motor. Smaller tires to have less friction. Maybe a bit of small mirror like 45° side edges to it to reflect more sunlight when the sun dropw.

I think you need to move the wheels further back on the panel's too. That way each panels will flex/bounce less as each panel will have closer to a wheel at each corner of it, instead of just two teetering near the middle of each panel. Kind of like how articulated lorrys have the trailer wheels right at the rear of the trailer, not the middle, while the front of the trailer rests on the tractor (which has its own wheels).

10:15 hey! Speaking of efficiency, why don’t you use a more efficient driving system, like direct drive, instead of grinding your tires? Also you would like to use a parallel sun panel configuration with a booster power stage, to avoid serial blockage of partial shadows of your path. Btw I know, these needs more work an you wanted it on an instant. :)

But imagine if a company put in time and effort to make this smaller, more efficient, with less NVH. (Noise, Vibration, Harshness) Then you’d have a contender for real city / short distance travel that people would love.

I have 750w of panels on my production adventure van. I average 350-450w generation when in direct high noon sun in the Pacific Northwest. More realistically I generate 200w ish on average during daylight. Also any amount of shade on the panels drastically reduces amount harvested just like you showed with your hand shadow. Solar is super interesting. I wish it was more efficient and affordable, thankfully it keeps improving every year

Panels with micro inverters almost eliminates the issues with one panel pulling the entire array down due to shade.

Supercapacitors are very good for absorbing high amounts of current demand or current inflow, however, their capacity versus their physical size has not yet reached a point where it is a good idea to completely replace your battery. I recommend adding them to your system regardless, because they do help, but keep a lithium battery on board to do the leg work.

Nice, quick, proof of concept. There are so many ways a person could make this far, far more efficient. For some examples. Use a good quality, in wheel hub motor. Use the thin, flexible, lighter Solar panels, and connect them to one trailer made out of a composite of EPS foam, fiberglass, a thin plywood top layer (to screw into etc), and Titebond III glue, and use two bike tires with low rolling resistance. Create a fairing for the bike itself, and/or a bubble windshield, and even better, do that on a recumbent bike that is already more aerodynamic than a regular bike. Even better still, build the bike from scratch, using a combo of bamboo+S-glass fiberglass+high PSI tensile epoxy (preferably 7k+) for the primary structure. If you get the weight down enough, and the improve the aerodynamics, you can use a smaller battery and less Solar panels. Basically creating a bike version of the Aptera car which may be coming out in the near future.
