need help with system
« on: October 22, 2005, 06:59:14 PM »
Hello all. I am planning on moving to the countryside here in Uruguay (South America). I won´t have electricity there. I am looking at a windgene system that I´m building myself. I´m also building my own batteries, either lead acid or nickel iron. Surprisingly, they would cost me roughly the same here. All this just to run my desktop computer. I know I should get a laptop, but can´t. Even lighting is no problem, just the computer. What will I need?

TIA,

Ron Widd.

Dr.d. Thanks. The one I'd be interested in is currently out of stock and I have another one. I'm thinking about a savonius with a permanent magnet volvo alternator. My real problem, there is a limit to what a language teacher can do, lol, is working out the capacity of the battery bank and "thingies" to make my puter work.


TIA,

Ron
