    Default Solar Power?

    Does anyone know any good webpages, books, or resources for setting up your home for solar power? Even if it didn't totally replace electric it would be nice to at least not have to worry about a power outage... Our electricity bills keep going up and up...even thought I keep turning everything off!!

    Any info would be appreciated!!

    Mother Earth News has some great articles in the past, try their website. Also I have a copy of "The Soloar Age Resource Book" By Solar Age Magazine. If you don't have a copy send me a mailing address and I'll ship it to you.

    Countryside and Small Stock journal magazine always has great articles on this and many related subjects as well. It's the one magazine that I subscribe to and read it cover to cover when it comes.
