Home Made Solar Power In Action

Home Made Solar Power In Action

If you think you’re doing your best to help the environment take a look at this guy. Mike Davis of Arizona (that’s right, no city of residence) moved away from city living to his own remote patch of land in the country. To make up for the lack of electricity to his home, Mike created his own solar panels on some materials you could get at the local home improvement store (and of course some savvy eBay shopping)!

Does this sound like a home project for you? Or do you have something else planned to “Greenify” your home? With all the talk about hybrids and carbon footprints we’re all doing our part to conserve energy. While necessity was the primary cause of Mike’s solar panels, it offers a solid energy alternative for households struggling with skyrocketing energy costs.

What’s more is that this proves you can do it on a buget. This project cost only $104.85 thanks to some resourcefulness and creativity. Read more about Mike Davis’s home project at his website.
