Which kit should I get? How many watts?

MOST electric space heaters are a MINIMUM of 1000 watts of 120v power.
You would need at least 1500 watts of solar + a charge controller + batteries + an inverter. (THIS allows for the inefficiency of the conversion/storage units.)

Might I suggest a propane, kerosene, or diesel space heater instead.

The 6-in-1 Educational Solar Robotic Kit is an excellent beginner building kit designed to teach how solar power is used to drive a small motor. An easy to D.I.Y kit that’s for everyone with an interest in robots, or someone that wants 6 Solar Toys for the price of one! You use the 21 snap together parts (no tools required) to build six different working models – once you build one robot, you can take it apart and turn it into an alternative robot instead. The kit gives you the ability to show off your robot building skills to create a Solar Airboat, Solar Revolving Plane, Solar Car, Solar Windmill, Solar Puppy, and a Solar Aircraft.

Solar building kits teach children the benefits of solar energy, while they create a toy that is both fun to play with and best of all – never requires batteries! And do not fear if you’re worried about the nights drawing in and the sunlit days getting shorter… You can not only draw your Robot’s power from the sun, but a 50 watt halogen lightbulb and home will also give you some juice – so you can still play in the middle of winter or on dark dreary days. Eco-conscious folks, Educators, Science Museums, and Hobbyists will surely appreciate the durability, educational value, and endless hours of amusement for children and adults too! This is a beginner kit recommended for ages 10 and up. Small parts, not for children under 3 years.

Features:

This product contains 21 parts to assemble 6 completely different styles of fun solar toys including:
- Solar Car
- Solar Puppy
- Solar Airboat
- Solar Plane
- Solar Windmill
- Solar Revolving Plane
The toy can give full play and train children’s imagination, creativity.
Easy to follow instructions
Parts just snap together – no screws!
Solar battery life: 3-5 years
Generator: 12000 prm (rpm / sec) / DC 1.2V.

NOTE:

This circuit converts 12V DC from solar panel and battery storage system and produces 48V DC (60V) to charger the battery pack in my DAYMAK Austin electric bike. Faster charge than OEM charger. Great for someone driving an RV from campground to campground with an e bike on the back for short trips once they get to their destination. This circuit will keep the batteries fully charged and ready to go. You can also use this with a 12V battery charger charger if you original charger has given up the ghost. Or you could have a solar panel charge a battery during the day and use the energy stored to charge your electric bicycle or EV for “free” at night. Automatic circuit switches to trickle charging after battery is completely fast charged.

“http://www.WindEnergyGuide.net – A growing trend among homeowners that is growing fast is moving towards renewable wind energy. Learning how to build wind turbines is a growing trend that does seem to be going away anytime soon. The wind that blows by our home every day and night could be the very thing that drastically lowers our monthly energy bills. Homeowners are learning the simplicity of building a wind turbine that is both affordable and something they can build themselves. As many continue to see monthly bills going up several homeowners are taking energy matters into their own hands.

How To Build a Wind Turbine #1 – The Parts

There are four basic parts that go into the design of a self made wind turbine. The four basic parts involved are the turbines, the batteries, the towers, an the tail also called the propeller. These four simple parts are all put together with simple tools. To put your wind turbine together you will simply need three parts: a wrench, a drill, and a saw. Those are all the tools needed to assemble the turbine together.

How To Build a Wind Turbine #2 – The Motor

The only part that requires some looking into is the best motor that you want for your wind turbine. Most do not recommend building your own motor but just ordering one from your local hardware store. Just like any other motor the motors on wind turbines will require regular maintenance and repair at times. But a small price to pay when it comes to generating your own electricity. While you are assembling your wind turbine make sure you have plenty of space to build as well. Installing the motor and attaching the blades requires a space that is open and allows you to move as you need for safety concerns.

It takes a little work to learn How To Build Wind Turbine but nothing overly complicated about the process and generally the process can be fairly inexpensive once you are operational and your electric bills are dropping each month. Building wind turbines is also a fast growing occupation worldwide as technicians are tough to find.

So learn How To Build Wind Turbine for yourself and take advantage of the opportunities free electricity and know how can provide.
