I think chain link is too big, think smaller holes like that on the door of a microwave oven, which is itself a faraday cage.
Can you tell me the efficiency of solar power? I am not sure this can be answered or can it. ROI compared to just buying the electricity. I guess most of your customers are doing this to be independent from the grid and see it as a way of life.
i have a kinda dumb question, can you make a pole barn a faraday cage from what i have read need to have area completely enclosed well a pole barn is . the photo i seen was a room made with 2×4;s and chainlink fence dose that work ??? and if you have a lighting rod in ground would that stop emp from frying your car/truck when they are hooked up to it like a main lead to rod ???
Very cool!
Definitely! See ya soon!
Extra blades! 🙂
Ryobi also makes cordless chainsaws, 18v.
Missouri wind and solar has some educational videos on the subject . channel/UCnaa_80Xxuoq0jNA68uddaw
I picked up a 24vdc chainsaw that will cut a cord of wood on one battery. I haven’t had any problems cutting anything with it and it just so happens I have a 24vdc 140 watt solar panel. Chainsaw is quiet and I can run it for free. Solar panel puts out 6 amps on a sunny day and and 3 to 4 amps when it is cloudy. Cut down a 6 inch diameter tree they other day and cut it up for firewood and still had over half the battery.
Good point thanks.
Yes, not an efficient way to go but a a cool idea non the less!
nice tip! I will use this to vibrate the gasifier when the fuel starts to bridge!
We have two vehicles that we drive daily for 60 miles each. One is a ’12 Suburban and the other a ’10 Silverado. Average MPG 18-19. Since we use them daily anyway I have considered constructing slide in battery banks that I could use in the evening to offset the energy consumption of my house through a grid tie system and charge them during my trips to and from work. I have been poo poo’ed on my idea because of added fuel consumption from electrical and weight drag but I drive everyday anyway.
Small, flexible branches will whip you in the side of the head, Manzanita in particular (He says, rubbing his ear…)
Anyone know where I can find a good breakdown of solar power? Would like to study up on this. Want to build a solar power supply for my house.
Cool…
Another thing about a sawzall : remove the blade and use the reciprocating foot against the outside of small concrete forms to help vibrate the air out.
you can run anything using up to 45 watts of power directly off the panel. you can charge as many batteries as you like, but it’ll take a a near eternity to charge a large battery bank, but should easily charge two car batteries or similar batteries for the day. the idea with solar is that you accumulate the electricity from the solar panels over time in a battery bank and run anything you need on those batteries, even charging other batteries.
Appreciate it
the problem with reciprocating saws is the blades dull out in no time.
Thank you sir! 
It they are 12 volt batteries you could charge right off your existing battery/alternator and skip the inverter step.
In a couple of hours you could fully charge one of those batteries I show in the vid.
Thank you sir! That is much appreciated! Of course I don’t know about the “most” are uneducated apes part? I would have to argue we have some pretty good schools and some very sharp people! Anyway, thanks for watching!
