The Idea is too Take a car with a carburetor like a honda crx with a manual fuel pump. And do a alternator delete and have a small 12v dc motor (like a electric fan motor) with a pulley and have the motor in place of the alt and a solar charge controller that connects to the battery.

So it would charge your battery back up but not be a big drain on FE
And we could also use a small permanet magnet motor that's a lot smaller then the fan motor and it would be even less of a drain on the FE

I want to name this "mini alt mod"

What do you guys think?
