life off the grid when the poo hits the fan
I was wondering if anybody lives life off the electicity grid with turbines and batteries an stuff as i am thinking if the sun gets any more strange and starts zapping up and we all start dropping like flies with the lecy grid failing in solar storms would a baterry and inverter be immune from solar storms
we are all doomed to a burning hell

the batteries really suck and are the weak link in alternative energy.

batteries would probably be ok, but inverters and chargers would probably be toast after an EMP.

Inverted power to run fridge and freezers will trash out a bank of batteries pretty quickly. You have to have deep pockets to get the batteries designed to the job and last.

Solar or wind turbine to keep a bank of batteries up for lights (led), charging devices, running radios etc. is easier to do. Youtube it, there's a lot out there.

cruise through this site, a decent amount of info there.

Also in the rocket mass heaters could build walls for benches beds and have sand as the internal mass with a brick cap

Get a flywheel. Better and cheaper in the long term than batteries:

Re: life off the grid when the poo hits the fan
It's a lot more straightforward to learn the ways to live without freezers or refrigerators. I could have one or the other, but I don't, kind of like how I choose not to have a TV.

I do have a microwave oven though because it is occasionally useful and I am not concerned about that spectrum of radiation used in that way.
