How It Works The methods are extremely simple, making the process possible for anyone, everyone, ANYWHERE. There is 1 project for The Beginner/Hobbyist ("How-to Convert your vehicle to Electric") facilitating different methods in converting:1. The Engine compartment2. The Engine3. The Drive System4. The Storage Spaces Typical tools, hardware & supplies are used, making access to parts available for all. Electric Conversions can be easily accomplished in ANY model vehicle, even tractors, Generators, types of machinery, etc. Project lengths range from 1 day to 1 month. The Process- The engine compartment is first cleaned out of any gasoline components.- Electric components are then installed in exchange.- A battery bank is built and incorporated.- Existing starter and driving systems are connected.- Turn the key, step on the gas pedal sending more energy to the electric motor, & thus more power to the drive system, which in return creates more speed, more acceleration.


- The system has normal automotive top speeds and acceleration, typical to the vehicle your modifying. If your top speed was 85 mph and your acceleration was 1 mile per min, then this will be what your left with after the conversion.

HOW TO MAKE ALTERNATIVE FUELS AT HOME SAFELY


I currently run Bio Fuel (straight vegetable) in a 1999 Dodge 3500 truck. But all Cummins engines were modified from the factory to run on BioD since around 1992 without any modification.


Biofuel is recognized by both the US Environmental Protection Agency and Department of Energy as an alternative fuel, and qualifies for mandated programs under the Clean Air Act Amendments and the Environmental Protection Act of 1992 (EPAct).


USDA Clears Air with Biofuel: Buses and other diesel-burning vehicles run cleaner if they mix biofuel with regular diesel fuel, said the US Department of Agriculture at a biofuel fuel seminar at a USDA research center.


Conversely most major automotive manufacturers (Chrysler, Ford, and General Motors, etc) recommend the use of bio fuels, and nearly every car manufacturer in the world approves ethanol blends in their warranty coverage.


In fact your probably even driving an ethanol car and didn't even know it.


The trick is finding fuel.


I've been producing biofuel for about 3 years now, it's not extremely difficult. Basically you need general household ingredients, a processor (or still for ethanol) and some used oil. Blend it, let separate, screen and use. I complied a guide a while back to help walk you threw the process step by step, just email me or check out..


http://www.agua-luna.com/




  • 1 liter of new vegetable oil, whatever the supermarket sells as cooking oil

  • 200 ml of methanol, 99+% pure

  • lye catalyst -- either potassium hydroxide (KOH) or sodium hydroxide (NaOH)

  • blender or mini-processor

  • scales accurate to 0.1 grams, preferably less -- 0.01 grams is best

  • measuring beakers for methanol and oil

  • half-liter translucent white HDPE (#2 plastic) container with bung and screw-on cap

  • 2 funnels to fit the HDPE container

  • 2-litre PET bottle (water or soft-drinks bottle) for settling

  • two 2-litre PET bottles for washing

  • duct tape

  • thermometer


Use the "Methoxide the easy way" method -- it's also the safe way. Here's how to do it.


Measure out 200 ml of methanol and pour it into the half-liter HDPE container via the funnel. Methanol also absorbs water from the atmosphere so do it quickly and replace the lid of the methanol container tightly. Don't be too frightened of methanol, if you're working at ordinary room temperature and you keep it at arm's length you won't be exposed to dangerous fumes.


Carefully add the lye to the HDPE container via the second funnel. Replace the bung and the screw on the cap tightly.


Shake the container a few times -- swirl it round rather than shaking it up and down. The mixture gets hot from the reaction. If you swirl it thoroughly for a minute or so five or six times over a period of time the lye will completely dissolve in the methanol, forming sodium methoxide or potassium methoxide. As soon as the liquid is clear with no undissolved particles you can begin the process.


The more you swirl the container the faster the lye will dissolve. With NaOH it can take from overnight to a few hours to as little as half-an-hour with lots of swirling (but don't be impatient, wait for ALL the lye to dissolve). Mixing KOH is much faster, it dissolves in the methanol more easily than NaOH and can be ready for use in 10 minutes.


Using a blender. Use a spare blender you don't need or get a cheap secondhand one -- cheap because it might not last very long, but it will get you going until you build something better.


Check that the blender seals are in good order. Make sure all parts of the blender are clean and dry and that the blender components are tightly fitted.


Pre-heat the oil to 55 deg C (130 deg F) and pour it into the blender.


With the blender still switched off, carefully pour the prepared methoxide from the HDPE container into the oil.


Secure the blender lid tightly and switch on. Lower speeds should be enough. Blend for at least 20 minutes.


Using a mini-processor. Follow the instructions below and improvise where necessary -- there are many ways of building a processor like this.


Proceed with processing as above, maintain temperature at 55 deg C (130 deg F), process for one hour.

How to DIY Alternative (Green / Renewable) Energy Guides


Ideas TO live off the grid Moving off the grid...Let me start off by saying we (my family and I) live completely, 100% "off of the grid and are completely self sufficient" using alternative fuels / energy. I was in the exact same situation as you few years ago.


We do not leave our ranch except about once or twice a year, mainly for travel and vacations.


We raise meat and milk goats, chickens for meat and eggs, ducks for meat and eggs, trap javalina (wild boar pig), rabbit, quail. Brew our own beer from home grown products, preserve our fruits, vegetables, etc. smoke and jerky the meat, make our own soap, cheese.


There are no utility lines, no water lines, no roads, tv, cell service, etc. on our ranch. EVERYTHING needed is produced here. All electricity comes from 27 solar panels, 2 main wind gens and a back hydrogen generator if needed (typically we can last 9 days with all luxuries of sunless windless weather, hasn't happened yet). Water is caught and storied from the rain. Hot water is made with solar batch water heaters with an on-demand hydrogen hot water heater as backup. Even our vehicles use alternative energy (2 hydrogen trucks, 1 EV electric vehicle converted).


We've lived self sufficiently off the grid for over 5 years now. In 2003 I left an Engineering position with Boeing, sold 2 houses and most of our positions, purchased a small ranch in West Texas near the Mexican border, built a completely green home using 100% recycled and local (rocks, lumber, sand from the ranch) materials, built a wind generator and some solar panels, built a hydrogen generator and converted the vehicles to run on alternative energy, purchased some goats, chickens, ducks, lamas, etc, a composting toilet, water storage tanks, planted crops and fruit trees and settled down for the long run. We typically don't leave the ranch for 6-8 months at a time, and only then to visit family.


The house is built utilizing natures natural materials, Woodburning stoves, solar chimney, solar AC, solar heating, solar water heating (pool and home), solar stove, solar power, wind power, hydrogen powered back up generator, hydrogen back up water heater, hydrogen stove, 2 hydrogen powered trucks, 1 EV (electric vehicle) and satellite internet.


To see some pics of the ranch you can check out my photo gallery below, navigate with the tabs on the left (hacienda, misc, guest house, etc), we're adding every day so be patient and don't laugh at my scraggly winter beard..


http://www.agua-luna.com


We also built many small cabins on the ranch that we offer to family, friends and our on-site off-grid workshop guests, including one straw bale, one papercrete, earth bag and adobe, one cob and cordwood, one underground and rammed earth, one log and post and beam and one rock.


I later wrote a several guides on how to build with alternative materials, alternative energy / fuels using alternative methods for next to nothing. Anyone interested can check it out at..


http://www.agua-luna.com/


As we have no bills, no mortgage and do not pay taxes (buahaha don't tell anyone) we have little use for money (any extra money saved up usually goes towards vacations as we enjoy traveling to Mexico).


If you'd like more info on how you can make the transition easily, let me know. The steps above are complete, but if you have ANY questions or would like a more detailed copy with pics, feel free to contact me personally if you have any questions,

FREE OFF THE GRID PROJECTS



How to DIY Alternative (Green / Renewable) Energy Guides



Let me start off by saying we (my family and I) live
completely, 100% "off of the grid and are completely self sufficient"



The house is built utilizing natures natural elements, in the
shape of an octagon with 8ft wide arch doors on every wall to catch every angle
of wind (typical 4 sided homes have half the chance as one with 8 sides. A
circle being the most efficient design). Woodburning stoves, solar chimney,
solar AC, solar heating, solar water heating (pool and home), solar stove, solar
power, wind power, hydrogen powered back up generator, hydrogen back up water
heater, hydrogen stove, 2 hydrogen powered trucks, 1 EV (electric vehicle) and
satellite internet.



There are no utility lines, no water lines, no roads, tv, cell
service, etc. on our ranch. EVERYTHING needed is produced here. All electricity
comes from 27 solar panels, 2 main wind gens and a back hydrogen generator if
needed (typically we can last 9 days with all luxuries of sunless windless
weather, hasn't happened yet). Water is caught and storied from the rain. Hot
water is made with solar batch water heaters with an on-demand hydrogen hot
water heater as backup. Even our vehicles use alternative energy (2 hydrogen
trucks, 1 EV electric vehicle converted). Because of this we have no bills, no
debt and no mortgage.



Here's a DIY step by step process to build a small solar panel
that really works, taken from a guide I offer at www.agua-luna.com it's complete
but if you'd like the more specific process or the pics and images go to
www.agua-luna.com. It's pretty simple but if you have any problems feel free to
contact me directly I can walk you threw the process.


Materials you will need



A sheet of copper flashing from the hardware store. This normally costs about
$5.00 per square foot. We will need about half a square foot.

Two alligator clip leads.

A sensitive micro-ammeter that can read currents between 10 and 50 microamperes.
Radio Shack sells small LCD multimeters that will do, but I used a small surplus
meter with a needle.

An electric stove. My kitchen stove is gas, so I bought a small one-burner
electric hotplate for about $25. The little 700 watt burners probably won't work
-- mine is 1100 watts, so the burner gets red hot.

A large clear plastic bottle off of which you can cut the top. I used a 2 liter
spring water bottle. A large mouth glass jar will also work.

Table salt. We will want a couple tablespoons of salt.

Tap water.

Sand paper or a wire brush on an electric drill.

Sheet metal shears for cutting the copper sheet.


The first step is to cut a piece of the copper sheeting that
is about the size of the burner on the stove. Wash your hands so they don't have
any grease or oil on them. Then wash the copper sheet with soap or cleanser to
get any oil or grease off of it. Use the sandpaper or wire brush to thoroughly
clean the copper sheeting, so that any sulfide or other light corrosion is
removed.



Next, place the cleaned and dried copper sheet on the burner and turn the burner
to its highest setting.


As the copper starts to heat up, you will see beautiful oxidation patterns begin
to form. Oranges, purples, and reds will cover the copper.


As the copper gets hotter, the colors are replaced with a black coating of
cupric oxide. This is not the oxide we want, but it will flake off later,
showing the reds, oranges, pinks, and purples of the cuprous oxide layer
underneath.


The last bits of color disappear as the burner starts to glow red.

When the burner is glowing red-hot, the sheet of copper will be coated with a
black cupric oxide coat. Let it cook for a half an hour, so the black coating
will be thick. This is important, since a thick coating will flake off nicely,
while a thin coat will stay stuck to the copper.


After the half hour of cooking, turn off the burner. Leave the hot copper on the
burner to cool slowly. If you cool it too quickly, the black oxide will stay
stuck to the copper.


As the copper cools, it shrinks. The black cupric oxide also shrinks. But they
shrink at different rates, which makes the black cupric oxide flake off.


The little black flakes pop off the copper with enough force to make them fly a
few inches. This means a little more cleaning effort around the stove, but it is
fun to watch.


When the copper has cooled to room temperature (this takes about 20 minutes),
most of the black oxide will be gone. A light scrubbing with your hands under
running water will remove most of the small bits. Resist the temptation to
remove all of the black spots by hard scrubbing or by flexing the soft copper.
This might damage the delicate red cuprous oxide layer we need to make to solar
cell work.


Cut another sheet of copper about the same size as the first one. Bend both
pieces gently, so they will fit into the plastic bottle or jar without touching
one another. The cuprous oxide coating that was facing up on the burner is
usually the best side to face outwards in the jar, because it has the smoothest,
cleanest surface.


Attach the two alligator clip leads, one to the new copper plate, and one to the
cuprous oxide coated plate. Connect the lead from the clean copper plate to the
positive terminal of the meter. Connect the lead from the cuprous oxide plate to
the negative terminal of the meter.


Now mix a couple tablespoons of salt into some hot tap water. Stir the saltwater
until all the salt is dissolved. Then carefully pour the saltwater into the jar,
being careful not to get the clip leads wet. The saltwater should not completely
cover the plates -- you should leave about an inch of plate above the water, so
you can move the solar cell around without getting the clip leads wet.

Now place in the sun with the magnified glass on top.



The solar cell is a battery, even in the dark, and will usually show a few
microamps of current.


That's it it's that simple. If you'd a more detailed process and some pics
(couldn't put them here) it's available along with some other DIY alternative
energy projects at

http://www.agua-luna.com/

The steps above are complete, but if you have ANY questions or
would like a more detailed copy with pics, feel free to contact me.


Hope this helped, feel free to contact

first self sufficient steps, I'm willing to walk you step by step threw the
process. I've written several how-to DIY guides available at
