Using the Sun to Power Your RV
by: Rick Chapo

Jumping in your RV and leaving the rat race for the weekend is an American tradition. Did you know you can provide power to your RV with the sun while getting away from it all?

The Sun is Everywhere!

One of the biggest misconceptions regarding solar power is that it is limited to large panel systems on roofs. Au contraire! With new nanotechnology, solar power systems will soon be applied with the paint you use to improve your home. That’s still two or three years away, so what about now?

If you enjoy taking the RV out for an excursion, you can use solar power to provide your electrical needs. Whether you are going camping or to a NASCAR race, it is an exceedingly simple process.

Unlike homes, RVs run on direct current electricity. This makes them perfect for solar electricity since solar systems produce direct current electricity instead of alternating current. Put another way, there is no need for bulky converters to flip the electricity from direct to alternating. Instead, you can use the sun to power up your batteries directly.

Portable solar systems consist of pop-up solar modules with four or five panels. Essentially, they look like small ladders with solar panels instead of steps. You just pop them up on the roof of the RV or in an area where the sun hits them. The systems tie directly into your batteries and power them up during the day. Super easy and super clean.

The real advantage to solar RV systems has to do with noise. The traditional method for recharging your RV batteries is to turn on a generator and generators can be very loud. Even the quietest generator makes enough noise to make you feel like you live next to a construction site. Solar systems make no noise at all. There are no moving parts, just the sun beating down on the panels. You’ll never know they are even there.

If RVing is your thing, portable solar modules are worth taking a look at. With high fuel prices, you need to save a buck wherever you can.

Energy Saving Tips – 6 Home Conservation Ideas – Kitchen by Ibrahim Saeed

admin — Tue, 08 Sep 2009 23:39:04 +0000

Consider these 6 no cost home energy saving tips and conservation ideas for your kitchen. I think we all can agree that the kitchen is one of the most visited rooms through out any home. Whether it’s the task of preparing food, grabbing a quick snack or the inviting smells from a delicious dish or roast; the kitchen is unavoidable.

There’s no wonder most of the activities performed in the kitchen are also some of the biggest sources of household energy. Wow just thinking about the kitchen is working my appetite, here are 6 cost free energy saving tips and conservation ideas for your kitchen.

1: Check your refrigerators temperature settings. The recommended temperature setting for fresh foods is about 38 degrees and for frozen foods it’s about 0 degrees.

2: Check the door latch and seals on your refrigerator. If the latch needs adjusting then grab a wrench and get to work. Replacing old adhesive seals will also provide the original air tight fit and seal.

3: Don’t forget to defrost your freezer. Frost build up is not only unsightly, it’s inefficient. Don’t allow the freezers frost to build up more than one quarter of an inch.

4: Use a microwave or a pressure cooker or an electric plug in grill when possible. A conventional oven uses considerably more natural gas or electricity than electric grills, pressure cooker and microwaves.

5: Turn off the oven about 5 to 10 minutes before the recommended cooking time. If the temperature setting is 325 degrees or even higher, the left over heat will be sufficient enough to last the remainder 5 to 10 minutes and finish off your roast. I’m getting hungry again.

6: Periodically clean your oven range tops and reflectors. This ensures that the range heat will be reflected more effectively and efficiently.
