Video Tutorial: Make Your Own Solar Panel. Photo – http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kkAJW5H2K1M
Did you ever wonder how a solar panel is made? It’s actually easier than you think to build one at home – though you do need the individual cells! This instructional video will guide you through the process of connecting polycrystalline solar cells together, the first step in constructing your very own panel. The beauty of this system is that you can make any size you want and if you love DIY and have some spare time, you can save on the cost of buying a ready made panel.
If you live in a remote place or you simply want to reduce your environmental footprint or utility bills, a small solar generator can provide enough power for basic lighting and small appliances. Once it’s up and running, the maintenance required is minimal and the electricity is free! A larger system can be connected to the grid and could be earning you money every day!
Small solar panels are ideal for charging low voltage batteries (between 12 and 24 volts). Car batteries can store a good amount of electricity but often suffer damage when drained even for a short length of time. It’s better to use leisure batteries – these are designed for use in caravans and motor homes – they have a much longer life on a cycle of slow repeated charging and discharging. Deep cycle (or “solar”) batteries are the best, although more expensive, and are now more commonly available.
Positioning your solar panel is crucial! – the output is greatly reduced when the panel is not facing directly towards the sun. We found a great design to build your own tracking device that moves the panel to keep it constantly at the right angle for maximum power.

The solar cells used in this video tutorial have to be soldered – as you will see, this is quite a labour intensive process! “Tabbed” cells cost a bit more but will save you half of the work with the soldering iron.
To put a complete solar electricity generation system in place takes a bit more knowledge – fortunately there is a wealth of information on the internet from people who have the experience! Please be sure to do your research and find out all you need to know before you start so you buy the correct materials and learn how to work safely.

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.
One of the smartest guys I ever had the pleasure of meeting, Claude set-up a unique prepping system that changed his life forever.
I already tried it myself and let me tell... you I was completely blown away... His surprising tactics could make your life easier and give you the peace of mind you deserve.
Don't just take my word for it... watch his short video and decide for yourself.
