DIY solar projects are becoming increasingly popular. You can get some basic supplies for any solar DIY project you may have in mind in your local community. Solar kits can be found at home improvement stores and at RV and marine stores.
Here are some typical supplies you may need. Be sure to make your list and get the parts you need so that you can do the solar project that you have in mind with ease and enjoy your new found ability to harness the sun for your own needs in no time.
Of course you will need the basics like a screw driver, a pair of pliers, a wire cutter and some screws and wire connectors. You might want some alligator clips as well. Most solar projects will require a micro-ammeter too.
Now we have to reach out and grab some of that wonderful energy of the sun and store it for our needs. So first off we need solar panels. You can purchase these panels in kits now from the marine or hardware store or a RV store. You can get great deals on them and find them used online as well. Many larger cities have solar supply stores as well. Just search online for solar supplies and your larger local city name to find them.
The nice thing is these days you can get solar panels that come in kits that can be connected together to grow to the number of panels you need for your project. You take the power you need and select enough panels to output that power based on the ratings provided by the manufacturer. It will say right on the kit how much power to expect from the panels in maximum sunlight.
Now you will need a place to store the energy you harness. So you will need one or several batteries depending on the power you are going to need. Get deep cycle batteries as these are better for long term use and continuous use. You can get good deep cycle batteries at your RV store or marine store. You can also find deals on these batteries online.
Now you need a power inverter. Since these panels are often used in RV or on boats they produce power in DC and you will need to convert the power to AC to use for home or shop use or whatever you may need it for. You can get inverters at many different places. You can purchase them at any place that provides RV or auto supplies for sure. Now you will need to connect the system together. So make sure you check the kits and see if there are any special items needed for the solar panels that do not come in the kit. Usually you will have all you need but not always if you purchase used cells.
Now you may also need a battery box depending on the application. Since batteries can leak when they go bad you may want to put them in a special box to protect people and your environment from them. You can build a box or buy ones specially made for batteries. If you build it make sure that you use materials that won’t break down quickly from battery acid should they leak.
Ok you should be ready to head out and get the supplies you need for your solar project. Have fun! Solar projects are a great way to spend time with family and friends too. People seem to have an immediate understanding of the value of harnessing sun power and are often keen to help. So ask around and you may be surprised at how many people are interested in your project and would like to assist you.
