One of the students who helped convert a tractor to electric gives us a brief tour! Please click SHOW MORE!
Students at the University of Wisconsin, Platteville, converted a John Deere 2025R to electric. Mechanical engineering student, Mitchell Schaefer, gives us an overview of the project. We get to go under the hood to see batteries, controller, and more.
Specs in short:
John Deere 2025R with Hydrostatic drive. Original drive, PTO, and 3 point kept as stock.
Nissan Leaf Cell Modules - 10 in series
Motenergy ME1003 Electric motor
Daly 20S/72V 200 BMS
25A DC-DC Converter (NO 12V battery used!)
Kelly controller
120V/12A Charger

We also recorded the student's Senior Design Presentation, which you can see here: • Electric John Deere Tr...
