Your Questions About Solar Generators Hawaii

admin answers:

I’m currently building a windmill, and just finished a solar setup for my garage. It’s really a practice run. We have some property in Hawaii that is off-grid and I’m planning to build there next year. The solar cell for the garage charges a deep cycle battery that I got from the local golf course (its out of a golf cart). And it holds enough juice to keep the lights going. I’m currently trying to add some load to it to see how much drain I can put on it.

The nice thing about the windmill, is that when the sun isn’t out, the wind is still blowing so the battery will charge 24 hours a day when I finish. You can build the generator from a car alternator, but I just bought it from eBay for 80 bucks. I do want to try to make my own, but I was feeling lazy,,,lol.

I got the instructions from

Because Hawaii has a lot of sun, our solar powered phones are located on the side of roads in case someone has car trouble.

We also have combination solar/wind generator lights installed at the Hanauma Bay parking lot.
