    Basically charge in the battery lasts in relationship to the input and usage, I use the lowest powered equipment and so I need less input. If I plan my energy usage I dont run out and I never pay a penny for it.

    nice how long does the battery last?

    The Inverter used …
    The Inverter used is 90% efficient, the manufacturer tells me that I lose 10% in heat due to transformation costs. But Manufactureres are manufacturers and I am probably losing more!

    but you forgot the …
    but you forgot the uneffecency of the power inverter if you pulling 11 watts off chances are you puttin 20 watts in 9 is wasted in heat

    The Solar panel is …
    The Solar panel is 13/w per hour but in strong direct sunlight in the UK I can get up to 17W out of it. To get ANY meaningful usage out of renewable it is important to use the most efficient machinery you can get or solar power will be a waste of time.

    Sky, if you had …
    Sky, if you had bothered to watch the video – you would have plainly seen the battery from which the light is powered. The Laptop is an IBM T-31 lowest powered per hour. Hydrogen will yield 25w for every 100w used in electrolysis besides white platinum in the fuel cell almost cancels out a marketable H system unless a breakthrough is found. So far my laptop, phone and light have not run dry, I think I got the maths about right, i might be wrong though, regards Eddie

    Hi Eddie
    An …

    Hi Eddie
    An addendum to my previous post , as a backup why not include a wind power unit made from a 12 v. alternator…a computer will kill a HD truck battery in 2 hours.. a 6 or 8 bank of batteries minimum.. I suggest you look at how campervans work to heat water using gas….or alternativly perhaps hydrogen??? perhaps using an old refridgerater pump to store your ‘H’ in a tank [lpg cylinder ]under pressure .. sorry for sounding negative but the maths don’t add up using an inverter

    Thanks Snapshot, I …
    Thanks Snapshot, I am working on converting my house, I should be able to get the bedrooms of for <$500, but it is the kitchen and boiler that is the problem – however I am using guerilla tactics for this – it is very doable for less than what most would expect. I will do more videos as time goes by. Eddie :-)

    Nicely done.
    You should be able to run a 12v car fan and a small tv as well.
