Doing some more tests with my electric wheelbarrow project.
Please click SHOW MORE!
The little Ryobi 40V electric motor has lots of torque. Here’ I’ve got a 4" drive pulley on the motor to a 7" input pulley on the transmission. Torque is plenty for pulling a car up my driveway. The bigger issue was TRACTION! The drive was a bit icy. Some more weight in the wheelbarrow would probably have improved traction.
It’s hard to tell in the video, but we are traveling slightly uphill in the video clip. The car weighs approximately 2,800 lbs.
