Fossil fuels are formed from the remains of organic materials such as zooplankton and algae that lived and died about 100 to 400 million years ago when part of the Earth was covered with huge swampy forests. These remains settled to the bottom of those swamps and are buried under anoxic (lack of dissolved oxygen) conditions. As more and more layers …
The purpose of this post is to show you how easy it is to make a FUNCTIONING solar panel with common materials!And of course, to provide you with the necessary information about building one! Note: my solar panel is a very very basic one. I will elaborate more later. Things You Will Need: Acrylic Sheets (CLEAR – Size up to …
Solar charge controller helps to prevent your batteries from overcharging. For some good quality solar charge controllers, they will help you lengthen the effective lifespan of your batteries. A normal solar panel rated at 12V- 14V may be producing 16V to 18V at peak sun. This charge controller helps to regulate the charging process of your batteries, preventing overcharging. It …

Inverters can be grid-tied or off grid, pure sine or modified sine. The inverters here are all DC to AC inverters. They change the DC power produced by the solar panels into AC power that is normally used by your household appliances. Grid-Tie Inverter Synchronizes with the grid to feed electricity produced back to the grid. MUST be pure sine …
