DIY Instructions for Wind & Solar Power·

(We
manufacture them in a micro-enterprise co-operative, and install
them in poor barrios)

1
- Homemade Windpower.Wind powered system, include which generators,
blades
and other instructions on how to make wind systems at home.
2 - Solar power generators and Solar Collectors - made right at
home inexpensively.

- All
you need to know about Fisher and Paykel Alternators
- Fisher and Paykel alternators are great, (often free) generators
that are ideal for wind power.
- Putting
together a Solar System. - A basic, no knowledge assumed,
set of instructions that build up from an easy system with a solar
panel and battery to a more and more complex one with solar arrays,
batteries, charge controllers, inverters and even panel positioning.
- Electronics
- How
to build smart systems with logic
gates and switches. These are very simple instructions on
how to build basic to very clever systems with cheap and reusable
"plug and play" devices.
- Grid-Powered
Battery Charger - This is article from Tom Woods is about
how to build a controller switch that will connect a grid-powered
battery charger to one's solar or wind battery bank. The grid
charger kicks in when poor weather conditions do not permit wind
or solar energy production. The circuit protects the battery bank
from damage due to chronic under charging, and it allows maintaining
the loads on the alternative energy circuit even if they temporarily
exceed the solar or wind electric production. The circuit is fully
automatic.
