Solar Car ChallengeComponents & Sources - 2020Sources graciously provided by solar car teams of the Solar Car ChallengeGeneral Guideline“One piece of advice that I would give any team new or existing is to find a business owner in their community that is an approved vendor for their school. All public schools have to use an approved vendor system in order to purchase items. Not all businesses want to become vendors and the process to add a vendor can be difficult. We build a relationship with our locally owned automotive supplier that is an approved vendor and he adds whatever we need to his inventory. This gives us access to anything on the Internet whether it is new or used. This can help to stretch a solar car team’s budget.Joe Pitts, Team AdvisorGreenville High School “Iron Lions” Solar Car TeamSOLAR PANELSWholesale Solar - SBM Solar - Civic Solar - SunPower - Cat Solar – Allen Chuzel, HC 1 Box 594, Elgin Arizona 85611 (602) 710.0477Eco Direct – POWER TRACKERSMidNite Solar - AERL - Solar - Eco Direct – BATTERIESWholesale Solar - Sun Xtender - AA Portable Battery Corp - [turn-key lithium battery systems]PowerSonic – Eco Direct – MOTORSCloud Electric – Electric Motorsport - Motors - Motors - Co special part supplier – NomuraCoMOTOR CONTROLLERCloud Electric – Electric Motor Sport – Thunder Struck – Nomura Co special part supplier – NomuraCoCUSTOM SPROCKETSSupersprox - special-sprockets/Rocket Sprockets - Superior Sprockets - - Electric Motorsport – Mouser Electronics – DigiKey – LOW VOLTAGE PUSH-BUTTON SWITCHESLittelFuse – HYPERLINK "" Racing - Electronics – GV200: Drives - Motorsport – Mouser Electronics – DigiKey – Grainger – Waytek - McMaster-Carr - BRAKESBMI Karts – Motivational Tubing - Chassis Shop - STEERINGMotivational Tubing - Chassis Shop – SUSPENSIONATV A-arm suspension – Chassis Shop – FOX – WHEELS – they make adapter to go from ATV to carNomura Co special part supplier – NomuraCoMETAL for CONSTRUCTION – [go local if possible]Online Metals - QMF Steel - Garland Steel – Wicks Aircraft – BRAKE LIGHTS & TURN SIGNALSO’Reilly Auto Parts - Grainger - [for ECCO lights]Etrailer - J&P Cycles - NUTS/BOLTS/SMALL PARTSMcMaster-Carr - Bolt Depot – LOW VOLTAGE ALARM [12v]QKits Electronics - – Battery Stuff – COMPOSITE MATERIALSExpress Composites - Plastic SheetingEplastics – Unites States Plastic Corp – Professional Plastics – SHRINK WRAPBig Shrink - .
