Something that power companies don't want you to know!

First off this is a very thing that most people don't know or have never thought about also if you ask anyone an electrician or someone with a power company they all will deny it! First some back ground when power is sent into a house the old way was that each house had a ground pipe for the whole house.
Now they power companies have changed how all that works they have had the codes rewrote to still include a ground pipe in the ground but its not as a ground for the breaker box it is a secondary ground that's a false ground very seldom used.

Now as to how its done these days if you have noticed there are tons i mean tons of substations every where that is due to how they now do it they run in a ground line to catch the back EMF and unused power that is giving off back DC power to the substations. This is a catch 22 for them and for you the buyer they then reinvert that DC power into AC and resell it back several times. This is how they have in the years have increased power production but never done anything new besides add in more substations. There are several ways to disconnect the ground line and catch it your self and with just a few things convert that back feed power into AC and reuse it without repaying for it. I have seen this done now several times in most cases it can cut your power bill in half or more.

Here is a list of some of the things that i know back feed lots of power TV's, DVD players, radio's, lights, stuff with a transformer that is a wall plug. Now there is a simple way to catch small amounts and reuse it first get a diode and hook it to a ground say on a TV then put it so the negative is on the ground line then put the positive pointing away now put in a second ground pipe and hook up the positive of the diode to a small DC to AC power inverter on the positive then the ground of the inverter to the second ground pipe. Turn the TV on and watch how the invert all of a sudden get power now the inverter too is a waste of power so put a second diode on the ground pipe line back to the positive on the inverter have it set to negative to the ground pipe and positive to the positive line on the inverter. This is to show you proof on just how easy it really is.

Now time to talk about some things that give less and way they give less back feed first items like toasters they waste power to whats called heat loss items that make heat. Another one that uses a lot of power in heat loss is the old incondessent bulbs. They give off lots of heat and waste a lot of that back EMF or back feed that's also why they have been pushing for CFL's as they have a very high back feed rate to guess who the power company. In turn if they where really about saving energy use they would say to use LED lights but they never ever say that why they have very little back feed if any at all due to they have diodes in them making them the least consumer of power and the least back feed.

One day if i get enough comments and shares and likes on this i will give you a direct plans on just how to setup a house to not give your power back to them. I will also if i get enough views and more on this give a list of a companies that sell items that one can buy to do just this i know of a few that work great! I am tho one for build it your self so if there is a problem you then can fix it with out big repair bills and stuff. Hope this wakes up some people and gets more thinking on it.

    1. If i can get some stuff worked out on my living situation i will get up vids and much more on a lot of this and other stuff. Once i get a job or some way to make some cash flow that i am working on then i will be able to make more stuff to show and get video on it all!

  3. I kinda gave up due to not many leaving comments good or bad i have tons more info to post up just so busy with new pc and starting to make a video game and much more. Happy to hear you liked some of the info its just the basics on a very large topic. That most never ever have any clue about and its real easy to prove and so much of a scam its not even funny! Thanks for the posting i don't get much on here or i would be posting more but most don't care about stuff they can see and change they want the gov and that to make the changes and charge them more and more BS rates and lies. Again Thanks for the comment like to get feed back!

  4. I would love it if you could post more instructions on how to do this. It frankly makes me mad -----we pay and pay and pay, and don't even know what we're being charged for. I am working on getting off grid, but until then, saving money on power would be great. My last bill showed $72 for electricity, but the total bill was over $300. When you can, I'd love to know more.

    1. I go months with out any comments on stuff so i have kinda just left it alone i TY for leaving a comment i wish more did and would get what it is i am talking about. If more that read my stuff left comments and showed more interest i would get back to this and be putting up more info. I have other into on getting off grid up check it out. If more ppl would share this and my other info on FB and other places and get me more views and comments i would be happy to jump back and take the time to get up tons more info and how to's. If you look up how a daisy chain light works then cheat put in a diode between each and feed it only just over what the first light needs bingo you will get how to in a way do some things to really save tons of money. All one does is collect the back feed unused but converted AC to DC and bingo yr set. I find it best to not use AC in the first place due to its a what i call the FAKE power most electronics really use DC only a few use AC so if one changes them over to work first on DC and the few that are AC only i have found ways to get the DC or off grid ones of them like a frig big one to have but go to a RV place and get a 3way its the first biggest step to getting off grid nice thing they work on AC DC or LP so one can use it on AC until they get there DC really up to the job. To get off grid its not as costly as ppl say due how they tell you is to take solar panels and make AC and thats the big mistake why easy if you make DC and use DC there is no loss in converting it to AC also you cant store AC but DC you can. Its never in a persons favor to put solar or wind to make power to sell why you never ever get payed back its very very hard to due to just as you may get close to a break even something has to be fixed or replaced.

    2. PT2 Cont Now if you start to look at it diff as to use what you make start with lighting the simple and easy one use only LED DC lights one or two solar panels will in most cases make enough with one or two batteries once that is done dont do like most say and use one big setup for everything why what if you do like they say and use only one setup for it all and it breaks no options till its fixed but my way make a system for each one for lighting one for small electronics and one for big stuff like frig and that. This way if one goes down you can jump one from one of the other to keep something going. Say if your batteries die for yr lights but you have the other setup going for small electronics you can jump the power making over to the small electronics setup and the lights too it too until you get it fixed. But if you get all off grid and have only one set up then what no lights no power unless yr running a back up gen or what ever yr choice is and thats a costly one to jump to when if you had a multi set up that would give you power in many ways could save you from having to jump right to a gen for power. What most dont get is you dont need 100 solar panels to be off grid my way 5 to 10 solar and a few micro wind turbines and for most to reduce what they all use and they will have all the power they need to live and live happy and keep fun toys and electronics for kids and yr self. If you really are wanting to get off grid let me know more about where you live small town out in the country up in the mountains in the city. I can work around many ways for ppl to be set up off grid it really only takes a little bit of cash and some real commitment to not have big bills. Take this one weekend you can build with work and just a few bucks a recharging station that to charge yr cell phone or lappy or what ever you jump on a modified exercise bike or tread mill that to recharge them you may have to use it for say 10 to 20 min or say for simple lights due to no money for solar or wind turbines you charge up a battery now if you use all DC lights and only use ones that are LED a single deep cycle battery i have ran 2 or 3 lights ever night for hrs each night for a few days with no charging so if you really want to start to get away from big bills there are tons you can start to change now and slowly that will let you get used to being off grid its really easy once you get used to not have AC power just there. Once you do you will never go back trust me its too nice and too much fun to be really off grid making all yr power and never buying it. So let me know more and i just may give you my email and really give you just how to get out of the paying someone for yr needs when everyone could be saving that money.
