Alternative Power Options

Does anybody know cheap temporary alternative power source options when KPLC disappoints? A generator is out of the question due to obvious reasons.
Although if I can find a small portable generator that doesn’t make a lot of noise, that would be perfect.

What happened to the old cholride exide batteries that used to come with sockets?
I’m also thinking of solar options but that is inconvenient sometimes.

I saw some solar okoa or M-solar cant remember the name— a few months ago being aggressively sold. It has like a few bulbs and what not. umejaribu hio?:oops:

solar system that can run lighting and tv

nunua a cheap one ,tafuta msee aiconvert ichukue biogas…[SIZE=1]sounds too farfetched methinks[/SIZE]

Invest in a powerful solar panel, a large capacity battery and an Inverter

Too complicated and I don’t like dealing with shit.

Solar is the best option. Just get a good Lithium storage batt and your good to go

Where to get cheap lithium ion battery??

First step is to buy a solar water heating system. … on the lighting bit solar is not necessarily reliable/cheap .
For cooking the amiran biogas is system is a good option.

Invest in this set up which includes two 125W panels wired in series. Runs all my lighting, TV, home theatre without any issues at all. Monitor the system remotely from your smart phone through Bluetooth.

No lithium batteries here,i get them from Germany though.

Pretty ugly installation here.

What do you mean 'not reliable '?

Iyo charge controller joh, sio digital

Very good mppt charger the screen is in your phone.

That charger communicates with your smartphone through an app and gives lots of info and allows change of settings

How much is everything? Bare minimum I mean. I can get this for my village farm

Works for me and again, it’s in my bedroom so not for display
