How to Make Power

This is one area most people never talk the truth about and they will lie and lie to you about how to make and use power! Here i will talk about and show ways to make power and how to use it and not waste it converting it into AC when you make DC power and there are many ways no one ever tells you on how to use what you make!

When i say use what you make most people don't get that statement they think that well i do use it after it is made into AC power yes true but you lost 25 to 60% of the total power your solar or turbine made! Yes i know some of you are saying no my inverter is 95% efficient well sorry to say this no inverter is over 75% due to heat loss and how much they use to run the fast switching to make the AC.

When i say use what you make i mean running stuff on DC power. That is easy to do its really easy to find DC lighting that can replace AC lighting in your house and shop or any place. Next if you buy a RV frig that is a 3 way power. That means it can work on AC, DC, and LP gas that has many uses first it can run on AC until you get enough DC power making. Now at this point most of you are thinking but i have TV's computer and other stuff that works on AC only. Well if you take say an old vcr and take off the cover. Once you have the cover off it and can see in side if you take a volt meter and you plug in the vcr now find the transformer and on the side near the back case that should be the AC side in on the opposite side on the transformer. There should be several lines or post if you use the volt meter to test those lines you will find out that its DC voltage ranging form 1v to 19v DC. That's why i say its easy all you need to do to make that or other electronics into DC is write down each output line from that transformer and make a diode board to regulate yr DC from yr DC power down to the needs of the device. Wow that's hard now why don't  just save the extra work and make them run on DC. OOOO they can't due to then the government and big brother wouldn't get paid for the AC power then. All that tax money that wouldn't get paid each year.

Now that you have an idea on how to use DC power lets give you some more ideas on other things in yr house. One that most people have a forced air furnace well that's easy go take a look at it in the area where the controller is for it. On most not all they have a transformer to convert the AC to DC to run yes the electronics and stuff. The only thing there needed is to see if its outputting 12v or 24v DC. There is one more thing the blower fan on it some new ones have 2 one on DC and one on AC or both on AC. Most if not all have a AC main blower you can find a DC motor online to replace it. That's not all that hard to get things working on DC what's left in your house what a ceiling fan a few odds and ends. Some things you can find them in 12 or 24v DC and find them where one place is an RV dealer. You also have another place to find some other DC powered items one that most never think of a truck stop they carry stuff for truckers to make meals in there semi working on DC 12v.

Now that i have your attention most must be thinking how do i really get all done that's where it all depends on a few things you have to ask your self. First do you have the extra money to pay someone to do most of the work if no. Then ask your self how much do you have to spend and or how much of this could you do your self. Once you have those answers next ask could i make most of the circuit board my self most can. Just takes some minor reading and learning to put a simple circuit board together and do a few wire hook ups.

Now some are thinking too what does this all have to do with making power easy you don't want to make power b4 you have ways to use it. So ways to make power easy visit in my site list on the side bar for Missouri wind and turbine site they have the best PMA wind turbines and they also have some of the best controller boards and prices around with some of the best other things. One thing i like they have is DC water heating elements so you can make hot water with your extra power. They also have solar and many other things like videos on how to set up there products and more. One thing they sell is PMA generators at a nice price compared to other places. Now i know some of you think what's so special about a PMA well they make more power at lower RPM's then other things due to they are a permanent magnets in them making them easy to turn and spin meaning less hp to turn making lots more power. There are many uses for these PMA's like take a bike and make a pedal power station, or take a small moped motor and make a charging station that will use very little fuel to run and charge batteries. Now there are many things like take a lawn mower motor and make a charge station now if you build a wood gasification unit that unit could work on wood gas not gasoline making very cheap power best bang for the buck.

Now as you can see if you start to combine things you really can be off grid and using power you make with out spending thousands of dollars. Now i will give you some examples of price if you take $1400 for a wind turbine and add in some solar for $2000 wow that's only $3400 and all you need is a few parts better controller and wire and now you could have a bunch of stuff off yr AC grid power and working on DC add in some parts and goods and say $2000 and wow $5400 got allot done and its not tens of thousands of dollars. It would really shock most people on how many lights that are LED can work on just one solar panel and if you add in a small wind turbine and it really is allot if you use the power they make. I have seen people put up 2 solar panels and one mid size wind turbine and they could run all there lights and a 3 way frig. Now if you take $10k and add in 5 or 6 solar panels 2 wind turbines one bigger power maker one and one smaller one i say this due to the smaller one will make power at a slower RPM but when the wind is stronger the bigger one will really kick out the amps this gives the best over all set up. here is why if you only have say 2 bigger turbines on slow wind speed days you could miss out on making power but on the other side on a strong wind day 2 small ones wont make the big power so by have a mix you cover more options. Then if you add in a moped motor and a PMA to charge up on those bad days using a wood gasifier then you have most things covered. And you wont go with out power and also save allot on your power bill. Most think oh but $5k or $10k very costly for what you get not really say you knock off even 50% of yr bill do the math write down what your bill is each month then cut in half add up half say you pay $100 to $200 average summer more for cooling. Now if 6 months is you save 100 and 6 months you save 50 that's a total of $900 /yr not bad and if you spent $5k to do that in 5.5yrs its paid for its self. Now that may not sound good but as electric keeps going up that number of yrs will get shorter and shorter. Now say you did or are planning on spending $50k on a set up that a company talked you into but they make it into AC and put it back in the grid. And lets say that $50k off sets yr bill by 50% so same thing as b4 half yr bill but this time you spent $50k it will take 55.5555 yrs to pay it off. One thing they never tell is that solar panels loose a percentage of power production each yr. So most in 7 to 10yrs are at a very poor production and need to be replaced. With that said now what way looks better my way in just over 5 yrs its payed for and until half yr setup starts to get weak yr solar panes easy to replace just a few thousand not tens of thousand and at that point you will also know what makes most turbines or solar and you can adjust so you make the most.

So i hope this makes some of you think more about what can you do to be better at being green and saving money too. Please leave your ?'s and comments as i will post more and more stuff on this subject. Also look at my other pages on other things like wood gasification, gold prospecting, living off grid and more.
