DIY SOLAR ENERGY
Are You Ready To Convert Your Home To Solar Energy?
If you made up your mind and decided that you want to convert your home to be powered by solar energy using solar panels and solar heater, there are few things you need to look up and consider before you are going to make this step.
While it may look very simple and easy thing to do – just covering your roof with solar panels and moving on, it would be good to rethink many things that you use to do.Read on...
Basic Solar Starter Kits
Cheap DIY Solarwizzard has taken all the complications out of purchasing a fully functional solar power system for your home or office. We have used our extensive knowledge, expertise and experience within the solar power industry and created solar power kits made up of the essential components required to get solar power working in your home. Whether you live in a small one bedroom house or in a five bedroom mansion that requires solar powered energy to provide for a pool; one of the solar power kits below will suit your budget as well as your individual requirements.
Basic Starter kit = R650-00 (entry level)
With an average of more than 2,500 hours of sunshine every year, South Africa has the perfect climate for solar panels.
South Africa's solar radiation output is over twice that of Europe - making it one of the highest in the world - and is the most readily accessible resource available.
This immense energy resource lends itself to a number of potential uses and the country's solar-equipment industry is growing with a number of companies in South Africa selling solar panels and other related solar energy products.
Existing Problems
For many years, South Africa has suffered from poor energy efficient housing. Low-cost housing is particularly poor for saving energy, resulting in high levels of wasted energy especially in winter. The result is harmful levels of air pollution in townships, due mainly to coal burning.

Free Basic Solar Power Tips
When thinking of a basic solar power system, think of a small cabin in the woods that needs four 12 volt batteries as a simple example. The assumption being that you are planning to run a small mini-fridge, a few lights, and a small stove. Perhaps, you may plan on powering a few simple tools as well.
The most basic setup will include a 3 panel (45 watt) solar kit and perhaps a 300 watt inverter at the minimum. This actually is a good starting point for a basic solar power system and then an additional 60 watts can be added. Anywhere you can eliminate the use of an inverter will help cut back on cost and the amount of converted current needed.Continue...Continue...
