interesting, I have been thinking about buying a 45 watt solar cell kit from harbour freight, hooking it up to a spare old marine battery (still tests good) that I have and hooking a inverter up to it. solar cell charges the battery during the day, inverter allows me to run xyz off of it. basically it would be my hurricane and winter storm alternative to a fuel generator. If it worked out well I might even start scrounging batteries to put in series and add another 45 watt kit next year etc etc etc

"The gun has been called the great equalizer, meaning that a small person with a gun is equal to a large person, but it is a great equalizer in another way, too. It insures that the people are the equal of their government whenever that government forgets that it is servant and not master of the governed." - 40th President of the United States Ronald Reagan 1911-2004
