Baby Steps are the way to start

I have noticed on Craig's List for a few weeks the link to this website:

Then this morning I went to KCRA's web site that had this link:

The first time I looked at the Earth For Energy link I was skeptical to say the least sounded like a scam to get my fifty bucks. But after finding a review of it on Green Tool Man I am considering ordring and looking it over. Especially with a sixty day money back guarantee. The only real thing stopping me is that I live in a apartment and doubt I could set up a windmill off my roof since I don't have aback yard. I am considering ordering the package to just have it on hand when we do get a house. It would be a start at reducing my dependence on the utility company that I dislike almost as much as I dislike government.

I realize it would be a hodgepodge set of systems to produce the power we need as a family but if I can just power th lights in the house that would be a savings, and a way to start.

Good Morning All

Hey Ottar,
The trick is to feed it into the meter so that it decreases the amount of energy you draw from the grid, (there are boxes for this)or ONLY run it to systems that don't need a steady supply of current to survive. It would kill your refrigerator for example. That being said, the price is lo9w enough to be worth it...especially if you enjoy building stuff anyhow.

Setting it up on the roof would be a real conversation starter though. ;)
