AussieHost.com office renewable power supply!

Here's an update to my power supply for the AussieHost.com office. It also doubles as the camping trailer too, for when we're out camping. I've added a 300w wind turbine into the power mix, keeping the 520ah battery bank nicely charged.

Thanks Michael. I haven't been camping with the turbine yet, but the solar panels do create some attention from other campers. I usually get a few folks asking about the setup each time I'm out camping. I'd imagine the turbine will create more attention, to renewable energy, which is fine with me. It's setup in the front of our yard here, and a fair few cars have slowed down taking a look. :)

I own the same turbine they do a nice job keeping batterys charged. Nice setup by the way.

@laurasIs2c Dont get me wrong, I think its cool as hell,, was just curious what you did with the power :)

@scottinaz1 Don't know about you but I don't like to suffer the heat in a tent and this little unit looks like it might be able to power a mixer for iced drinks or a little fan to get the heat out of the inner spaces.

Just curious, what camping needs would require such power ?

How exspensive is the wind turbine and where did you get it?

Thanks Jason
