Came across two guys who had rebuilt an old tractor and made it run on electrical power and solar panels while acting autonomus. Article on Swedish

    Huh, look at that! Tha erticle is quite old and only found it due to it was menetioned in a smal magazine about self reliance and other hippie things (magazine is called "Åter") and is also in Swedish, surprisingly good!

    Anyway, how come you saw it? Did you talk to the people behind it?

    i've passed by it while bikinga few times. it's about a km NE of the local ostrich farm.

    haven't talked to them sadly, never even seen it move. i always thought the solar panels were for charging the 12v battery or something.
