OUR CONTAINER HOME.We wanted to build our own home, but do something different. After lots of research we have built a home from shipping containers.The blog goes back to before we started to present. Now we are close to done but it's been such fun sharing with are followers, we blog everyday things.I have lots of experience in the construction field so i was confident in our ventures. We love what we have done and love sharing it with you. Enjoy!

They fianally did it !
We have been looking for awhile for a stationary backup generator. So when it a cloudy day and we aren't making enough energy from the solar panels, the generator will charge the batteries. I know when looking for a really good , quite generator , your looking for a "Generac"! So i called and told them our cituation and they said none of their backup generators were made to run for long periods of time. They also said "we void the 3 year warrenty as soon as they know your using alternet power source". Because the larger ones are made to run a whole house with everything running at the same time for 2 hours , while the powers out. Not for hours at a time to charge low batteries when the suns not shining ! Were thinking , ' Oh Great , this is going to be a task, just to live comfortably, no warrenty !" UNTIL....GENERAC COMES THRU , JUST IN TIME ! They came out with the first generator to run at lower rpm , which allows the motor to run longer. See , the lower the rpm , the slower the motor runs, the less wear on it. The big ones are screaming to produce all that power for an hour. Here they honor the 3 year warrenty because its made to do just that. Run slower , longer and charge your battieries till there full. YAHOO!!! If your thinking of going solar and wind power , this generator is exactly what you need. Its made to connect right to an inverter to change from dc to ac ! I found a link i'm going to try to post. Give me a a shout if any of what were doing interest you !
