Battery-Powered Cargo Wagon
This new battery-powered wagon can haul up to 800 lbs. and is small enough to go through a 3-ft. wide door. With no fumes it can be used inside buildings, yet thanks to its wide tires, it's perfect for use around the farm.
  The Electric Burro, marketed by The Fab Shop, McPherson, Kan., measures 31 in. wide and 40 1/2 in. long. It weighs 250 lbs. The unit can be equipped with either a flat wood deck or a metal bed. Two 12-volt deep cycle batteries drive the machine's 2-speed transaxle. A switch on the handlebar turns on the power while a twist grip on the handlebar is used to adjust speed and direction.
  Whenever you're not using the Electric Burro you just plug it into a 120-volt circuit. It'll shut off when the batteries are fully charged.
  The Electric Burro sells for $2,395. The company also makes several models of electric-powered "trailer tugs" fitted with a ball or fifth wheel hitch.
