Do It Yourself Solar Panels – DIY Solar Panels Et si vous construisiez votre éolienne (en bois) ? Rien n'échappe à la mode du Do it Yourself (faîtes-le vous-même), pas même l'énergie. Une association propose en effet à Mr et Me tout le monde d'apprendre à construire eux-mêmes leur propre éolienne. Ainsi, tout un chacun peut être acteur de la transition énergétique. La dépendance française à l’énergie nucléaire n’est pas une fatalité. C’est ce que démontre l’association Tripalium en organisant des stages d’autoconstruction d’éolienne en bois. L’éolienne que les candidats à l’émancipation énergétique apprennent à construire est un modèle conçu par l’écossais Hugh Piggott, vivant sur une île isolée non raccordée au réseau électrique. « Le mécanisme est simplifié au maximum pour que ce soit robuste, facile à fabriquer et reproductible avec un minimum d’outillage. « Je peux être autonome » Olivier, qui a participé à un des stages il y a deux mois a décidé d’acquérir, moyennant 8 000 €, l’éolienne fabriquée pendant la formation. La poésie de l’éolienne
How I built an electricity producing Solar Panel Several years ago I bought some remote property in Arizona. I am an astronomer and wanted a place to practice my hobby far away from the sky-wrecking light pollution found near cities of any real size. In my attempt to escape city slicker yuppies (you know the kind, the ones that like to blab loudly on their cell phone while they work on some business administration degree in a cyber cafe somewhere in Trendyland.) and their light pollution, I found a great piece of remote property. I built a wind turbine to provide some power on the remote property. Here is a video of the solar panel set up and in use on my remote, off-grid property. Let me state up front that I probably won't be able to help you out much if you decide to build your own solar panel(s). So what is a solar panel anyway? I started out the way I start every project, by Googling for information on home-built solar panels. After a while, I came to some conclusions: <a href='
Our Simple DIY Home Solar Power System Bringing some of the benefits of electrical power to our off-grid home has been a hit-or-miss affair. Over the years we’ve tried some very simple approaches to lighting and small battery recharging for our flashlights, such as hauling a 12 volt car battery to a small rural school about a half mile away every time it needed to be topped up. This was time consuming and inefficient. …developing Eartheasy.com using a dialup internet connection on a phone line strung through the woods was challenging… For many years we managed to get along without the conveniences which electricity can provide, but developing Eartheasy.com using a dialup internet connection on a phone line strung through the woods was challenging, and charging my laptop became a regular necessity. Today, with the help of a local expert on off grid home solar power and alternative energy systems, we have the best of both worlds. We have already enjoyed about three years of trouble-free use from this system. 1. 2. 3. 4.
Machine à laver à pédale - LES ADVENTICES Par ogodei dans Autonomie électricité le 13 Octobre 2012 à 12:31 C'est bon. Elle fonctionne. Nous avons dépensé en tout 20 euros pour la faire, le prix d'un pignon de vélo. Pour l'instant, nous faisons des cycle de lavage comme suit : on lave pendant 15 minutes à l'eau chaude, on fait évacuer l'eau, on rince pendant 10 minutes à l'eau froide, puis on essore pendant cinq minutes à fond les ballons. A part l'essorage qui est sportif, (nous allons apporter certaines améliorations) c'est trés tranquille. Lessive à la cendre ou au bicarbonate, cristaux de soude et savon de marseille. Nous venons de rajouter un pignon plus petit que nous avons récupéré sur l'autre vélo, pour faire l'essorage sans pédaler comme un bourrin. je ( le papa) fais mes tournées de linges le soir lorsque tout le monde est couché... c'est bon pour la digestion et ça ne décale en rien mon emploi du temps de la journée. lecteur Mp3 sur les oreilles à fond les ballons et en avant simone. petit rappel:
Survival Food 101: Hardtack - Survival Life Pilot bread, ship’s biscuit, shipbiscuit, sea biscuit, sea bread , “dog biscuits”, “tooth dullers”, “sheet iron”, “worm castles” or “molar breakers”. Hardtack has had many different names throughout the years but its importance has never changed. Hardtack has actually been around since the time of Egyptian Pharaohs, but if you have heard of it, you probably know it better from the Civil War period. During the war, squares of hardtack were shipped to both the Union and Confederate armies, making a staple part of a soldier’s rations. Typically made 6 months beforehand, it was as hard as a rock when it actually got to the troops. To soften it, they usually soaked it in water or coffee. Soldiers and sailors the world over have used hardtack as a way to stave off hunger. It is such a basic item that I am amazed that no one I know under the age of 50 understands its importance, let alone how to make it. This is one of the most cost effective long term survival foods that you can make.
Survival Food Preparation and Food Storage List Don’t Forget The Kettles! When thinking ahead of survival food preparation, make sure you have several big kettles and 55 gallon water barrels on hand. Remember, you will likely be heating your own water for everything from cooking and canning to bathing and laundry. When you are looking at all the water heating, water CARRYING and cooking that you will be doing, not to mention possibly making soap, cooking huge pots of stew for your neighbors that weren’t as wise as you were, and canning your own veggies, you can never have too many kettles and 5 gallon buckets! Same way with knives, canning jars and utensils. There are several ways to prepare foods in emergencies, when there is no power for the stove or when you are stuck with NO STOVE to cook on. Build a Fire … and cook over a fire outdoors.Use a flat top wood stove… this actually works quite well indoors or out. Course if you have freeze dried foods, some of those are made to eat without heating them. Storing Home Canned Foods Tip:
Panneau Solaire - Panneau de chauffage solaire fait en canettes Il est en réalité incroyablement simple et économique de construire un chauffage solaire d'appoint pour sa maison. Le plus intéressant est que le système d'accumulation de la chaleur est construit a partir de canettes en aluminium vides! Plusieurs facteurs font qu'entre les énergies renouvelables (et écologiques), et les énergies conventionnelles (non renouvelables et non écologiques), le choix qui s'impose est d'abord celui de l'énergie conventionnelle avec pour argument principal le prix. Par exemple, les gigantesques profits générés par les monopoles sur les réserves stratégiques de pétrole. Lisez ce document pour voir qu'une simple personne peut faire la différence en construisant un panneau solaire à l'aide de pièces recyclées. Donc vive le recyclage! Le chauffage solaire est construit a l'intérieur d'un cadre en bois (contre-plaqué 15mm), d'une plaque de Plexiglas / polycarbonate de 3mm. Pour commencer, il faut récupérer des canettes vides qui seront le coeur de notre système.
Survival Food Series: 25 Survival Seeds You Need For Your Garden Living off the land sounds as inviting as Christmas dinner. But many have hardly had adequate experience being “farmers.” In fact, many have had no experience at all when it comes to planting anything. That being said, the day is slowly approaching where each of us may have to trade in our company identification badges for a shovel and a pair of overalls. Educating yourself on farming topics such as mirco farming, planting for the seasons, natural insect repellents, seed collection and seed storage could help prepare for an upcoming economic crisis. Start Practicing The only way to be fully prepared as far as growing plants is concerned is to practice, practice, practice. With each gardening experience will come more wisdom on how to handle a larger garden. Survival Seeds These seeds that were chosen were based upon their yield quantities, *ease in growing, nutritional content and for the season they are planted in. Sources: Google+
Survival Gardening Survival gardening can provide fresh food for you and your family in the aftermath of a disaster. Disasters can occur at anytime and anywhere, and take many forms. Not all disasters are dramatic and natural. For some people a severe economic downturn can be a disaster. Having garden seeds on hand before a disaster strikes is like having homeowners or rental insurance. You hope you will never need it but should the need arise you will be thankful that you have it. There are many types of garden seeds available. No-Till Garden Method Most garden plots are tilled. Plant in Buckets Above ground vegetables like tomatoes require loose soil that is about 10 inches deep. Plant in Tires Root crops provide valuable nutrients but require 12 to 14 inches of loose soil in which to grow. Grow Up Vegetables that grow on a vine like cucumbers and squash only need a small spot of broken dirt. Beans Beans are easy to grow.
