  • I'm working on a new panel, But then I had a mishap with my medication. It went from $60 to $240 a month. So I'm having to survive on less. But I should have a new video out within the next 7 days. Where I'm using a one glass screen door as a double 40 watt solar panel.

  • are you using a power jack for the inverter?

  • @VWRabbitdiesel Yes it is the power jack 300 with an old pc power cord from the 80's

see all

  • I would not hook mine up to a batterie you could fry that inverter. you want a good way to get the most out of it. hook your inverter to a 12 volt side of a 4 cylcle generator and make it run off homemade ethanol.

  • @frugalnanny Just Google it! It's all there - just stay safe. Don't skimp on the safety stuff.

  • Damn you made a killer set up per watt for the price!

  • $0.35/Watt! That's amazing. You could have a 1 kW system for $350!

  • Good on you mate.

    

  • you're well on your way man. you should of seen what i started with, long before i found ebay. my stupid butt bought a bunch of solar path markers and torn them apart and made about a 5 watt with a lawn mower and used car battery, lol. i could run my tv for about 1 1/2 hrs and that was on a good day. now i can run all my lights in my home and tv, satellite, and cordless phone for about 3+ days

  • Sweet!

  • good job 85 watts that is real good for what little you have there

  • please teach us how to do this ourselves.

    I am not married to that kind of guy. I need motivation and knowledge.

    Thanks
