CHEAP and EASY DIY off-grid well house (for less than $500) with Goldenmate 12v LiFePo4 battery
Переглядів 3 тис.3 місяці тому
This is how I made my house "off grid capable" for less than $500. To be clear, my entire house isn't solar powered, my goal here was just to get water from my well storage tank to my house in the case of a power outage. To be more clear, my well isn't off grid either. The well pump would draw too much power to go off grid without a massive setup. So basically this set up is just powering the b...
DIY Solar | How to go OFF-GRID for CHEAP!
Переглядів 4,1 тис.6 місяців тому
Sharing a single 20a circuit running from my house has not been ideal. A grid tied sub panel would cost me over $2,000. However, using some tricks and the best value solar battery and inverter products, I was able to generate enough power to run my highest drawing guitar building tools, for LESS THAN HALF of that price. If this can run my CNC router, dust collector and keep the lights on withou...

    Great video. I live in Illinois 😢. My wonderful communist state does not allow AR-15s as of 2023, unless you get a bolt action conversion kit...and I will be damned before I desecrate an AR with bolt action... Dedicated lever or bolt action is my only alternative and I think I just found my solution 🙂

I have got a kit P bass with everything pretty much done i.e bass head has been finished, soldered pots, I've glued the neck to body pretty easily as it was pretty flush... Only thing is that there is no hole from cavity to the bridge like yours. How do you attach the ground wire to the bridge, do you need to solder it? Thanks
