I managed to salvage two old 10 Watt Solar Panels from a friend. Using some styrofoam, an old pallet and a sheet of glass, I made a new housing for them. Then with silicon sealer and duct tape, I waterproofed it. So far, it is holding up to the torrential rains of Summer.
Inside the house, we have a huge truck battery to store the sun for night usage. Now we can enjoy music while we have dinner, and even watch DVD movies. More panels will be ordered as soon as we can organize it. Having a little electricity makes such a difference!
Next, I will rig some 12 Volt lights and we will be "modern".
The big project is a water turbine to generate enough power for a Deep Freezer and a Subwoofer to rock the forest.
