    Default Where's our off the grid guru?

    I know someone here was really facinating in his description of energy conservation *and I believe* he did some off the grid living. I wanted to pick brain about how one went about getting more solar powered electricity vs city power. Anyone else here who uses solar, i'd love to hear from too. How do you start??

    We are in the same boat you are Missy. Really interested in the pros and cons of solar or even wind power. gotta get off the grid.

    I was looking for him to answer on my other thread as well - I finally done a search on energy boomer and found his site. He knows his stuff! I was able to find my answer from his site.
