Calif. Water Shortage To Be Bad

[imagine2frolic]

Wind generators, and solar panels will solve a lot of problems. Especially if you use 12V pumps. We live on 12volts on the boat for months at a time with 4 solar panels, and one wind generator. They run the fridge, lights, navigation lights, radar, autopilot, anchor windlass, watermaker, and numerous other articles with 2 8D batteries.

The boat's interior is about 600sq. ft. When I move to the South Pacific I will build a house that lives on the same system doubled. It is kind of like fancy camping.......LOL

The problem with solar panels here is the six months a year there is no sun or very little of it. Several businesses and homes have tried them and they just don't work out plus I won't live another 276 years for them to break even. Oh, and the occasional hail that we get in the Winter doesn't help them much either. Wind generated power would afford everything we need if they would just build the windmills in front of the city council chambers. Or find a way to convert hot air mixed with Sh** to energy.
