I charge my trike with this solar charge station.

Parts list/cost:
Richsolar 100 Watt Polycrystalline 100W 12V: $75 delivered

MPPT "boosting" SolarCharge Controller: $33 delivered

Various hardware (aluminum angle bars for mounts, wire, stainless fittings, rivets, shelf): about $40.
Total is about $150.
I've been using this now since January and works great!
Solar panel is anchored to south facing garage wall.
Cable feeds through to other side of wall on inside of garage and powers charger.
