solar emergency backup power

Posted on November 4, 2012

with recent NE super storm it would be a good idea to build a backup power system custom build your own solar power backup system with these parts and it is expandable as money permits

i recommend 2-3 of these sets $189 ea. you want 120 watts

2 of these batteries… 75.00 ea. you want about 70 ah @ 12v DC

750 watt inverter $50.00 ea. 750-1000 continuous watts is a good power range for emergencies

for about 800-1000 dollars you can build a nice little backup station for yourself to keep laptops, small radios, and cell phones charged and/or keep LED lighting going for the night.

i would recommend a gas generator but the gas shortage in nj presently has shown this to not be a viable emergency option.
