A. Opportunity charging can affect the "memory" of batteries, however our optional AGM sealed maintenance free batteries are far less prone to the "memory effect".
A. With some slight modifications, the eTug can be used for supervisors, aircraft maintenance, GSE field repair truck etc. With sufficient quanties we can manufacturer; Catering truck, pax ramp, stair unit or anything else you might need on the ramp.
A. We would like to answer this differently. What do you NEED it to be ? If you are an operator who needs to pull GPUs, Airstarts, Heaters etc along with up to five baggage carts during normal passenger ramp type operations the eTug is for you. The eTugs capacity is 20,000lbs. This means we can pull (and stop) up to five covered baggage carts fully loaded to capacity (4000lbs each). Most REAL operations pull no more than one or two carts (look outside or ask us for photo evidence). Unless you are a cargo type carrier you don't NEED 5000lb Draw Bar Pull. This equates to a capacity of 50,000lbs. Nothing on the ramp weighs 50,000lbs and we just proved above you don't need to pay a premium for something you don't NEED. Go green, save money and just say NO to gas !!
