How do I build a solar generator for my cabin?
We don’t use much electricity, so we don’t need anything too heavy-duty. I would like to run our cabin on solar electricity, but am having trouble getting help as far as what size battery, inverter, solar panel I will need. I know I also need a regulator, but don’t know anything about them either. From start to finish, what do I need and where can I get all he parts I need at a reasonable price? Is it cost-effective to buy an already put together solar generator?
If you wanted to use solar panels or a generator ect for electricity, and you don’t have a lot of money, how?
How would you do it?
And will it be enough to run a heater in the winter and a air conditioner in the summer?

Solar or Generator? I have a cabin in the woods with no electricity…what are some options?
I am looking for options to power a light and vaccum and a cd player in a cabin in the woods. I wouldn’t mind a generator but I dont know how I can save that energy. What would be the best option? Any affordable solar options for me, that would store power?
How come the use of solar energy in sunny California is not that common as in many parts of the world?
Since California consumes almost all its electricity capacity, one would expect the state of California to encourage home owners to install solar heating, solar electricity generator and so on.
generator would most likely be best if you are not there all the time. the solar power is an expensive start up, and basically runs on batteries. you can also consider wind power, and if there is a stream near by, hydro.
If you use the batteries to light the house at night, you can also use the generator to recharge those batteries, so you are not running the noisy generator at night.

The stuff they sell seems to more or less live up to the specifications.
If you decide to buy discounted panels be a little careful. It was my experience that the specifications overstated the performance by 50% to 100%
BTW – the best investment you can make is a good recent book on the subject. Anything copyright before 2007 is probably obsolete.
Good luck

I’ve been investigating this for some time as part of planning for a home I’m building in a couple of years. First of all, solar panels are extremely expensive and at this point in time the return isn’t worth the investment. I know that isn’t what you want to hear, but it’s the truth. Also, you cannot use solar panels to run an air conditioner or heating system because the current draw is too great. I’d suggest you pick up a copy of “Home Power” magazine, you can get it at most bookstores (I know Borders carries it). They also have a website — http://www.homepower.com. Solar power is a lot of fun to get involved with, but it’s SO expensive that you’d have to almost consider it a hobby.
Now, about the generator thing. Generators run on two types of fuels: “wet” and “dry”. Wet fuels are gasoline and diesel. Dry fuels are gases like propane. Generators that run on dry fuels have a shorter lifespan due to lack of lubrication. However, almost all generators for home use are not intended for full-time service — they’re engineered for occasional use in emergencies. My research shows whole-house generators to be not worth the investment. You’d be better off buying a smaller generator (5 kw, maybe) and just keep it around to power critical items, such as the refrigerator and a few lights, in the event of an extended outage.
If you want to save money on electricity, your best money is spent on energy-SAVING solutions, not energy-PRODUCING things. For example, install sola-tubes for lighting in darker areas of your home; consider a ground-source heat pump; install a solar water heater.
Good luck!
how much is the cheaper electricity generator ?
is it possible to have a solar generator to the cellular phone ?
and to the notebook ?
what s scheme ?
how long to charge ? adapter ? how to use it etc ? thanks
