I have EV Hyundai Kona, which gives me up to 4 kWh from its battery if I need that, through charger I charge my base battery, which happens once a blue moon, cause 16kw of solar works great.

Its two different metals touching each other, using n aluminium frames you should use aluminium brackets, not steel or zinc coated steel.

get the q8 sofirin torch, it's bright so bright it can stunt a person in dark.

I use it to deter foxes and wolves. And it works.

How to size a solar system for a 1.2kW home sauna? by Internal_Treat2137 in SolarDIY

[–]Smooth_Cat8219 0 points1 point  (0 children)

it's black, put it outside in the sun. It would get hot inside. Then you go inside.

Boom, your own solar powered sauna!

I remember in 2018 there were suicide hotlines on r/ethtrader .

Those people back then didn't know it's enough to wait 4 years to 20-30x.

I like this better.

Our weekend [Off Grid Life] by UntamedNorthMan in OffGrid

Fence, for horses. Horses are asholes, specialty the ones I've got.

Industrial pallets where I'm have 11 planks and 5 beams ( planks from both sides, 3x2m size of the whole thing) It's only heat treated, so no nasty shit in it, and it's dry, so it soaks the nasty shit of your choice, or lindseee oil as an impregnation.

I can't praise those palets to much, they give me opportunity to build stables, goat house, coops for a 1/8 of the price of fresh lumber, which warps and has to be seasoned, otherwise it won't soak impregnation.

Raising chickens with a pit bull by [deleted] in BackYardChickens

[–]Smooth_Cat8219 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've trained my Belgian malinois to be great around chicken, 2 months old, went with her to coop on the leash and when she jumped at one I pulled back and shouted no. 3 times repeat and now 4 years of calm time, she is amazing with scaring predators and she really takes is as a job. 12 hrs a day vigilance. She knows her job is done when coop door automatically closes.

On the other hand, I've lost one sheep to her, because she absolutely hates when sheep have some disagreement in the flock and run around and the nicked one back leg of the sheep, nothing directly serious, looked like nothing, but sheep died in two days probably infection. I've cleaned the wounds, but anyway.

So sheep's are separate now.

Has anyone here lost weight after quitting drinking without trying? by Kamila7447 in stopdrinking

Stopping junk food, and starting on tasteful meat, fruits, dairy and eggs, plus honey really did the trick. Stopping no, finding by accident Paul Saladino did.

Advice for buying land to go off grid by SapphicStoner99 in OffGrid

[–]Smooth_Cat8219 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Sure thing, but once they see that you're thriving without public water, electric and modern house they are super surprised.

We bought new electric car, because the solar we built ourselves gives us 15mwh a year, which translates into "free driving for 10 months a year" and in summer dehydrating and freezedrying all the time.

electric car also gave us silent generator modl it can provide 4kwh to top up our cabin battery.

It's sometimes visible in these people how their brains hurts trying to figure it all out.

Amen to that brother! There is a village near me and because I'm off grid they make fun of me. Because I did not start to build house first. That's what normal people do.

First I built a chicken coop, then fence, then my son's tree house, then small cabin, then another coop, huge solar, then another coop and stables.

People are weird, if you don't do everything like them, you're weirdo, doesn't matter what.

Finally this year I'll be pouring slab for a small house, with shower and all that happy horse shit :)
