I found a Solar Panel Store just off of Utica ave. Go east on 11th to Utica and hang a left. I think its called Harveys. Now I can finish my mini generator with good Solar Panels and even run most of my electric off of it. That'll help pay the bills.

man, can you send like directions on how to build one of those and what parts I need.  I'm not mechanical but I'm very good at following directions.  I'd love to have something like that.

Last check before I leave. I will send you instructions when I see exactly what he has. Germany has the best solar panels and I hear there cheap.

The next main thing is getting a good invertor. I have 3 back in NY that I plan on bringing back as there high end and you can power more stuff with it. But hey, I am now officially out of here. I'll be back on the 1st barring any problems like the bus breaking down and there's an 18% chance of that!

yea, if you can put down all parts and instructions on how to build one that would be awesome.  With 5 kids, I could use some help with electricity.

The internet has some good sites for solar energy stuff, lots of good information. Maybe we could form a co-operative and all help one person in our group convert to solar energy (labor wise, we would of course have to buy our own equipment) then as soon as one person is done, we all move to the next members home and work until that one is done.We could decide who got the next one by drawing lots, if that person didn't have all their stuff when their number came up, we go to the next and so on. What do you all think? Anyone game? 'Would take a lot of committment and work, but heck maybe others see what we were doing and they  would start helping each other like that too and before long we would all become neighbors again and things could get a lot friendlier around here. ( and yes, I was a Hippie, still am I guess.) Anyone want to do some tie-dying? LOL

LOL, read "Kid Safe Sites".

I will help as I have built a few of these babies. As patriot said, the internet has some good sites. With Solar panels you have to be careful so you can get as much bang for your buck. Not to mention you need to know how much juice you need so you don't over or under kill. But I will post up when I get home as Roxanne doesn't have a scanner and I am not going back into town as I am going horseback riding in an hour.

I'd be for it if my schedule wasn't so wacked.  I'd volunteer to be dead last since I won't have the money for awhile.  Anyone hear of the broken arrow mechanic that is putting devices on vehicles that help boosts gas mpg's by at least 50%?  He's in Broken Arrow and swears by them.  It's not his invention.  30 years experience and has been to 12 of those car classes.
