No gas is no problem for one Stockton CA inventor who created a solar-powered tricycle that’s really catching on.
Milton Butler’s invention uses two batteries and a small electric motor gathered up in a normal plastic storage bin to power three bicycle wheels and is allowing his family to save money on $5.00 per-gallon gasoline.
He says he built the contraption based on something he saw in his dreams, and out of things he had lying around in his garage.
“I’m an inventor and that’s all I know how to do. I invented something that people can use everywhere,” said Milton Butler of his idea. “It came to me in my sleep and I saw how the sun is always out, so I went and got my boys and we built something that we can use from the sun.”
Butler told KCRA that a friend of his asked about the trike on behalf of a man from the other side of the world in The Philippines, who complained about $11.00 gas and 14 hours of sunlight per day.
In December Butler was hoping to drive the “Duckie” as it’s called, downtown to city hall and hopefully show off his newly-patented device.
The name comes from his late wife who did “everything perfect,” in Milton’s eyes. Currently, Mr. Butler is in the funding and development phase looking for investors who are committed to creating a better world.

Patent it quickly my brother.
I’m hoping that, with him being an inventor, he knows his way around that process well.
