Build a solar generator, food dryer & solar heating
Build a gasless solar generator, design & build a solar heating system, make a solar food dryer & gain self-reliance
Want to make solar energy a working part of your life? Lots of people are feeling this way right now. Who wouldn’t want to be able to silently produce electricity from the sun with a portable device you make yourself? Or design and build a solar heating system? Or how about a solar food dryer that’ll let you dry fruits and vegetables to preserve them? GETTING STARTED WITH SOLAR is a three-course plans-and-videos package that’s guaranteed to help people just like you build solar self-reliance into your life.
QUICK DEFINITIONS: A solar generator produces DC and AC electricity without the noise, fumes, and gasoline of a generator. A solar heating system heats your home and domestic hot water using a simple solar collector. A solar food dryer preserves fruits, vegetables and meats without electricity or canning? This course package teaches you how to make all this stuff with your own hands.
Take a look at what you can build with this three-part solar energy course:
Course#1: Building Your Own Solar Generator
* Choose, buy and connect reliable, off-the-shelf components to create a portable solar generator that’s better than what you can buy from stores. You’ll enjoy your own portable DC and AC power when the grid goes down.
* Five videos, plans, instructions and specific component buying recommendations.
* How to do basic wire stripping, soldering, connections and fittings installations for building your solar generator (and other electric projects).
* If trouble sets in, you’ll know how to repair your solar generator and keep it running optimally because you built in in the first place.
* You’ll be able to build a very high quality unit for less than $1000 – about half of what a comparable ready-made unit costs.
Course#2: Create Your Own Solar Heating System
* You’ll learn the best ways to use evacuated tube solar collectors to harvest heat energy for your home in any climate. This system produces 180ºF water even when outdoor temperatures drop below 0ºF.
* Clear, detailed schematic plans that let you custom-build your own system to suit your home.
* How to heat water directly with solar electric power with photovoltaic panels – no need for pipes, pumps and valves. Ideal for small houses and buildings.
* How to choose and connect pumps, pipes and components for solar space heating and hot water production.
Course#3: Building a High-Performance Solar Food Dryer
* You’ll learn how to construct a solar food dryer that handles large quantities of food (unlike many ready-made options), and how to manage the temperature and heat levels— even in high humidity climates.
* The basics of food drying, which foods work best and how to create a reliable system for preserving your food with the sun.
* Detailed, printable plans that show all aspects of construction.
* Five video tutorials explain how to build your food dryer properly.
* Advice for choosing specific materials for making a high-performance food dryer.
* Instructions for building all four main parts of the solar food dryer: the collector frame, the drying frames, the base frame and the angled support frame.
* Advice on how to operate your solar food dryer.
