Foundation is being dug!

21 07 2008

Ok the guys came out last week and got going on the Garage!!!!

YE Hawww.

They have put the boards on the outside of the foundation and are now digging the trenches. Won’t be a huge garage, 16X28 =448 Sq Ft

So it is decent area, but not too large.

Working on battery bank now. Have had about 5 calls for people to check out the solar install once we get going….





Oh Yeah Should Start Monday

Hopefully we can break ground on Tuesday….

Picking up my solar panels now to bring to my house…





Building my Solar Wind Inverter Powered Garage

12 07 2008

Heck its been coming for some time. Lots of put offs and reason why not, but we hired a contractor to build our/MY garage.

Well it won’t be too big, looks like 28X16 with 10 Ft ceilings.

Costing about $15,000.00

i really want to go solar/ wind on this garage so I have started gathering my stuff.

Here’s what I got so far

Qty 2 80 Watt Solar Panels

Qty 1 100 Watt Solar Panel

Qty 1 400 Watt Air X wind turbine

Qty 1 Go Power 2000 Watt Sine Wave Inverter

Qty 1 25 Amp Digital Regulator

Qty 1 30 Amp Transfer Switch

 

I am going to make it off grid/ with Grid Backup. Usually I think it is kinda done the other way.

In other words I want to run on solar/wind/battery/inverter power until there is none left. Then I want to be able to switch back over to grid power.

This way I can benefit as much as possible from my alternative energy as possible without being unable to run devices.
