DIY Home Power
Have you ever really thought about how ridiculous it is that we have a huge system that costs billions of dollars to give us electricity, when we have all the electricity we could ever need falling around us all the time? Imagine if we started to take a fraction of it. Everybody has heard of solar panels, but few people realize just how cheap and easy it can be to create 100% clean, free, renewable energy all the time. My neighbors just last week built a set of RV solar panel just last.
Unfortunately, most people never get past the price tag when they look at home systems. That's because professional companies have realized they can charge a fortune because of all the money they save homeowners. It can cost more than $25,000 to install solar panels on your home. Fortunately for you, it's entirely possible to build your own system. You're only four steps away:
1. Find an instruction manual. Seriously, just spend fifty bucks for quality instruction. It will be worth thousands to you in the future. With the amount of heartache and wasted time you save, this is one investment that will easily pay for itself. Stay away from YouTube instructional videos, those people don't know what they're talking about.
2. Order the solar cells online. A solar cell is the main component of the panel, the surface which actually converts light into electricity. It's possible to make these yourself, but that's more of a science project than something which is going to be a reliable power source. Solar Cells are widely available, and cost less than $100 each.
3. Take a trip to the hardware store. Everything else you need is going to cost you around $30 per panel. Some people suggest that it will cost even less. Your manual should have detailed instructions on specifically what you need. You'll also have to pick up the electronics you need to convert your energy into standard 120V AC power.
4. Have a barn raising! Call your friends, neighbors, and kids and make a family weekend project out of it. Everybody who hears what you're up to will want to come check it out. Use all that help to get your system ready to go!
So there you have it. It's actually very easy and affordable to build your own solar panals. Now it's time to get of the web and get it done. You'll be saving money on your bills and helping the earth in no time.
