Off grid solar powered chargers have many benefits – if you’re regularly on the move it’s common to find your phone battery running low while the mains charger is sitting quietly at home! Now it’s possible to construct a simple device that is about the same size as a smart phone and can be set up to keep your phone topped up wherever you are!

This idea is perfect for camping or hiking trips – a charged phone could make all the difference in an emergency situation! It could also save the day if you work outdoors or away from home a lot.

It’s now possible to buy a very cheap interchangeable USB charger with a range of adapters for all sorts of devices so one charger could be used for any type of phone. It will even work with your iPod as well! 😉

The tutorial has useful links that will tell you where to find your materials – you don’t have to be an expert in electronics or highly skilled with your hands to make a simple solar charger like this one. The tools required are a soldering iron, a glue gun and a multitool – or if you have some pliers that can cut and strip small electrical wires, that would do the job! If you’re still not up for the challenge, there are many solar chargers now available to buy.

A charging device that has no built-in battery will only be useful during the day but it is a more eco-friendly option because the chemicals used in batteries can be a cause of environmental pollution both during production and then disposal at the end of their life. Please do your bit when disposing of used batteries by taking them to a local recycling centre where the component parts and materials can be reused or recycled.

Solar technology is finding its feet now due to more widespread recognition of the finite nature of current resources that are used to generate electricity. If you think about it, solar really is the ultimate form of power because the sun donates freely vastly more than we can use every day. We just have to harness it! Every off-grid option, however small, will help to reduce the burden on national grid systems – many countries are still dragging their heels when it comes to sustainable power generation and renewables account for around 20% of the world total energy supply – so we have to find ways to take more responsibility. Another key is to improve the energy efficiency of our homes and businesses.

The growing interest from governments in the use of “fracking” for natural gas to produce cheaper electricity is extremely threatening for the environment and the future health of the planet. Supporting sustainable energy is the way to go!

This Crazy Off Grid Device Literally Makes Drinkable Water From Fresh Air:

According to NASA, the U.S. is expecting a 100-YEAR LONG MEGADROUGHT.

It's already begun. Ask the farmers in California. They know.

Every survivalist knows that water is of critical importance. You NEED an independent water source that you can count on!

As an interesting "survival rehearsal" - imagine that you turned the tap on right now and nothing came out. How long would you last?

But what if there was another water source literally hidden in plain sight. That's right, I'm talking about the atmosphere!

The amazing thing about getting water from the natural moisture in the air... is that it is ALWAYS available.

This gives you real water security!

� What Tinnitus Does To Your Brain Cells (And How To Stop It)

After 47 years of studies and countless brain scans done on more than 2,400 tinnitus patients, scientists at the MIT Institute found that in a shocking 96% of cases, tinnitus was actually shrinking their brain cells.

As it turns out, tinnitus and brain health are strongly linked.

Even more interesting: The reason why top army officials are not deaf after decades of hearing machine guns, bombs going off and helicopter noises...

Is because they are using something called "the wire method", a simple protocol inspired by a classified surgery on deaf people from the 1950s...

Most People Don't Have The Guts To Try This:

An amazing discovery in an abandoned house in Austin, Texas: A lost book of amazing survival knowledge, believed to have been long vanished to history, has been found in a dusty drawer in the house which belonged to a guy named Claude Davis.

Remember... back in those days, there was no electricity... no refrigerators... no law enforcement... and certainly no grocery store or supermarkets... Some of these exceptional skills are hundreds of years of old and they were learned the hard way by the early pioneers.

We've lost to history so much survival knowledge that we've become clueless compared to what our great grandfathers did or built on a daily basis to sustain their families.

Neighbors said that for the last couple of years Claude has tried to unearth and learn the forgotten ways of our great-grandparents and claimed to have found a secret of gargantuan proportions. A secret that he is about to reveal together with 3 old teachings that will change everything you think you know about preparedness:

What REALLY Happens When You Bury a Shipping Container? (Hint: It's A Bit Crazy...)

Shipping containers are all the rage - but if you are thinking about buying one, you MUST watch this video first:

Do not, I repeat do NOT do what these lunatics did! Can you spot the "fatal mistake" they made?

There's a general belief that if you bury a shipping container you can create an awesome root cellar / storm shelter / survival bunker.

But is a shipping container strong enough to handle the pressure?

I Can't Help Showing This Off:

If you haven't heard of Claude Davis yet do yourself a huge favor and watch this video.
