If you try it out let us know..we would love to see applications of the simple tech! We are a couple who decided to make a change to the way we were doing things after living a busy life in the city. We sold our house and bought a small camp with 3 acres and have been living simply off grid, offgrid (and gridless) for 14 years and we have not looked back. It’s a work in progress and we have done almost all of the work ourselves and so we thought we would attempt to inform/entertain those who are interested in our projects (and other random thoughts) in the hopes of giving back to other users the way that many vlogs and sites that have aided us along the way.
