suryamukti e+bike, first of it's kind modified in Bali

This is an electric bike -made in China 2005. I bought it for a purpose: promoting alternative energy uses, and as my self-responsibility to use less polluting fuels. I've designed 'the roof' for it on Oct 17, 2005.

During my trip to Bandung on May 13, 2008 I found the right size and spec' of solar panel for that purpose. It's a 48V/40W amorphus type solar panel, made in China too..

The May 20th (Boedi Oetomo day, pioneer of indo youth org) triggered me to build the pipe rigging for the panel. I guess it must be the first of its kind. I worked with some guys in my village to build it. (in banjar Geluntung Kaja, Margarana, Tabanan, Bali. kindly search agungputradhyana artchitecture and more... at wikimapia.org)

Earlier I'd put small 4V/700mW cells to charge the radio on the e+bike.
The community Radio Station I built also powered by solar energy, from where we broadcast musics, local arts/entertainments, and live on-air or recorded discussion on environmental or cultural issues. We use 2 'studios' in Rumah Kayon, our center in my village. The kubusiar -an alang-alang roofed bamboo construction- where the announcers operating the radio station also has its independent solar powered lightings.

I found that this 'big gadget' -combining bike, radio- is an effective tool for promoting awareness on Alternative Energy (alt.NRG) implementation in a simple way.

SUN, Ra, Raditya, matahari... whatever you name it, the closest star which is the center of our Solar System is the Supreme Energy that powers life and nature system of our Planet Earth. The worshiping for the Sun already done by different beliefs, religions, tribes in many places around the globe.

Through Science, by experiments and series of inventions, nowadays we could transform the sunlight into electricity. It could be the new way to worship the Sun ;-)

From a small village in Bali, those technology products combined for a newer look and function: an electric bike -hence you don't need driving license to drive it, or annual tax-, with SUNroof to charge it when it parked under the sun or while it's running. Took about 6 hours of charging time to get full charge for 30 km or one hour ride on flat/smooth road.

Warm regards, Lights and Peace from Bali
