              Then when no wind use the cow farts to create heat/boil water to work a steam turbine to make electrcity.

              The farts from a herd of cows in one day is enough gas to power a town for a month, the EEC did SERIOUSLY decided to collect cow farts to create power, but fo whatever reason they didn't bother.

              That wind turbine would be approx 6KW THREE PHASE and an output of 20HZ, costing about a lot of money, and a HUGH ass winch to lift it up, then annoying the naybours with it's CHOP CHOP noise.

              Becasue you would need a MINIMUM of 750 RPM just to jut the warning light out, and would need to leave the regualtor powered all the time.

              If your hell bent on the idea then get a later 200 ONward FORD SMART CHARGE alternaotr, they would be good for that, but not brillianr, just pos and neg and turn

              If you get a 'i love you liong time' one off ebay there like ?300 give or take

                  How long you spending in their?

                  You with 3 leds strips MITE get away with a 12volt niMH pack, stick in pocket and take home

                  or even january sales, buy a 12 volt drill from B&Q for ?7 get two use one as a charger only, cut other drill up for a battery connector, swap batterys every few days, drill holes when at home with the othe tr one

                      Found his garage. If you can afford a helicopter to get there surely you can just get a generator?

                            There is a "real" photo of a shorter island with a car on it and a house, no turning space.

                            ON TOPIC:-

                            8 hours that a LONG time.

                            See if you can dowwnload off ebay a new ?10 electric meter, see if there a naybour nearby who will let you plug in and give them some DK rep points.
