A few years ago, I started looking into solar energy. Just like you, I started with an online search exploring on how I could save money with solar electricity.
I was shocked to see how much it cost to have solar panels installed at my house! The estimate I received was over $35,000 and the payback time for that was just way too long. I certainly didn’t have that kind of money, not even close.
I was resigned to the idea of paying the electric company each and every month until I met a friend who had a solution. My friend explained that he was building his own solar panels for just a fraction of the cost of new retail solar panels. For more info on Green DIY Energy, click on the images above and below.
STIRLING BUILD PART 11 HELLO, I AM GLAD TO BE ABLE TO ADVANCE TO THE NEXT STEP IN BUILDING THESE ENGINES. I HAD A DELAY IN THE SERIES DUE TO HAVING TO BUY MORE OF THE RIGHT SIZED CANS. (WITH FOOD IN THEM, YES I ATE THE FOOD.). ANYWAYS, I TOOK THE OLD STIRLING FAN APART TO SHOW THE NEXT STEPS AND HOW IT ALL FITS TOGETHER. ALSO WE WILL DO A DIAPHRAGM FOR THE SHORTER ONE. THIS WILL GIVE YOU A CHOICE. ALSO I WILL BE MAKING A PISTOM FROM AN OLD VALVE BODY FROM A TRANSMISSION. A MUST SEE. THIS IS A MACHINED PISTON THAT I WILL JUST CUT OFF THE VALVE BODY WITH A METAL BLADE ON A SKILL SAW. lol LOT’S OF FUN. BETTER THAN COFFEE. MUDDy
www.Regenedyne.com Demo CGI for proposed 2GW Magnetic Leviatated wind Turbine. *Efficient Frictionless Power Generation with less maintenance, compared to HAWT. No oil change or replacement of the bearings, gears. Since, MAGLEV does NOT require such. ** Current bearing technology has forced wind turbine designers into horizontal spindle three bladed wind turbines. In this design the huge blades are connected to a spindle in the center. The bearings that support the spindle and control the pitch of the blades (which can be hundreds of feet long) see huge pitch-moment loading, some of which is manifest as torque energy that is focused through the center spindle. The target speed for the spindle is 18 or 20 rpm and the bearings holding the spindle are mounted in a huge casting which also contains a large gearbox stepping the speed up to 1800 to 2000 RPMs which allows for the proper surface speed relationship between the coils and magnets. It is necessary to invert or condition the current, which is expensive. This gearbox is full of many large bearings, gears and castings; for a 2 MW turbine the gearbox can easily weigh 30 tons. This gearbox needs to be mounted on the top of a pole more than 150 feet in the air and be able to support the turbine blades under full-force wind conditions. ***MAGLEV Power Generation, the pitch moment ratio is closer to 1-to-1 then the 100-to-1 as with a horizontal spindle design.

www.ted.com Less than 10% of plastic trash is recycled — compared to almost 90% of metals — because of the massively complicated problem of finding and sorting the different kinds. Frustrated by this waste, Mike Biddle has developed a cheap and incredibly energy efficient plant that can, and does, recycle any kind of plastic.TEDTalks is a daily video podcast of the best talks and performances from the TED Conference, where the world’s leading thinkers and doers give the talk of their lives in 18 minutes.

FREE ENERGY # 35 BI-TOROID TRANSFORMER – 377 % OVER UNITY This idea developed by Thane C. Heins. Thane has developed, tested and patented a transformer arrangement where the output power of his prototype is thirty times greater than the input power. He achieves this by using a figure-of-eight double toroid transformer core. His Canadian patent CA2594905 is titled “Bi-Toroid Transformer” and dated 18th January 2009. The abstract says: The invention provides a means of increasing transformer efficiency above 100%. The transformer consists of a single primary coil and two secondary coils. The two secondary coils are set on a secondary toroidal core which is designed to be maintained at a lower magnetic resistance than the primary toroidal core throughout the entire operating range of the transformer. Thus, when the transformer secondary delivers current to a load, the resulting Back-EMF is not allowed to flow back to the primary due to the higher magnetic resistance of that flux path, instead, the secondary coil’s Back-EMF follows the path of least magnetic resistance into the adjacent secondary coil. This prototype, as you can see, is fairly simple construction, and yet given an input power of 106.9 milliwatts, it produces an output power of 403.3 milliwatts, which is 3.77 times greater.(377 % over unity by the prototype test) This is something which needs to be considered carefully. Conventional science say that “there is no such thing as a free meal” and with any …
