Earlier this week, I built the prototype second generation Dandy 2000, an off-grid portable solar generator built using a combination of new, reconditioned and used parts that are ISO 9001 and/or CE certified. This solar generator can be used as an emergency power source or daily to power devices or appliances, like myself, as […]

All materials other than the solar water pump were purchased at a junk/lumber yard nearby […]
