How to make your utility truck 588 pounds lighter

September 3rd, 2009

Taylor Dunn ET 150How much can the right battery solution improve your performance?

We’re going to find out — and one fleet manager is going to be very happy. GRRReen technicians today swapped out some lead acid batteries in a Taylor Dunn ET-150 72V Electruck for the Lithium Power Pack from GRRReen.

And they made the truck a lot lighter in the process.

They removed 12 AGM lead-acid battery cells that weighed a total of 770 pounds, and replaced  them with one 100 Amp Hour, 72V Lithium Power Pack that weighed only 182 pounds.

After reducing the weight of the vehicle by 588 pounds, it might be necessary to rewrite the spec sheet.

It says here that the RT-150, powered by an electric drivetrain, “can reach speeds of up to 25 miles per hour, while providing over 40 miles in range,” and that it will “carry loads of up to 1,500 pounds.”

We’ll be watching closely to see how much farther and faster it will go now that it’s powered by the Lithium Power Pack!
