Solar Space Heaters

In my efforts to make sure we are comfortable while I build the house i have been checking a a more efficient way to heat our camper and wouldn't ya know it I found one so simple I can't believe I didn't think of it. Soda can space heater mounted on south wall. These unit are being professionally build in some places however most are build by those who use them. Simply by building multiple chimneys out of stacked soda cans and painting them black you create a natural heat collector. Place a low watt fan at the intake and you got a forced air solar heater. There are a lot of pages on this "Technology" so if you want to check it I recommend doing a search on passive solar heating for RV's or soda can heater. Its really cool and can make a big difference in heating smaller spaces. I will begin building our within the next week or two.

Good News

Testing on the campers abilities continue; we now have lighting cooling heating and cooking taken care of. Currently we have 4 12v batteries hooked up with two inverters for different power needs. We can now run a small electric heater, an electric cook top, mini fridge, our microwave oven and any other item we may need. Keeping in mind that we have gas backups for all items except the microwave of course, I think our power needs are met. I would like a few more batteries in our bank and another set of solar panels but for now we are good. I would also like to get a wind generator down the road. The battery bank can be hooked up to a generator or even my truck in case of an emergency ( say long term cloud cover ). I need a new sky light, really i would rather plug the hole up but miss michael wants another vent so I will probably order one next week.
Bright Blessings to all

Congregation

I am considering starting a worship group open to all faiths from christian sects to pagan sects. Once in Nevada I will post flyer's and newspaper ads when I am ready. I believe there is someone watching over us but I also feel we all should be able to worship in our own ways without fear or prejudice.

Jack and Kolby

Say hello to Hollarbacks first feathered residents. The Pekin, Jack ( who I think is a girl ) and Kolby the mallard. These guys will be used as personal layers or just pets if I am wrong about the sexing.

Almost ready

Well tomorrow we go to hopefully get solar panels. The large inverter is on the way and several smaller ones we already have. Lights are hooked up and a small fan and forced air heater have been installed. All gas appliances are packed and set aside for emergency back up. Food is being purchased a little at a time right now we have two paper sacks full of food. Aug 1 is fast approaching and we will be ready.
