Over the past year a lot of diy energy guides have appeared on the internet, promising to teach even a complete technical newbie how to make their own home solar and wind power, and reduce their energy bills by up to 80%. One those guides happens to be Make Natural Power. But does it deliver what is promises? And is how does it stack up to the other guides?

Make Natural Power is a useless guide with a great cover. Though it had the same claims as the other guides, the content was disappointing, the instructions rather confusing, and it was not an enjoyable experience for me.

What I Liked about it:

I have that the one positive I got out this guide is that it is possible to build a home solar power and wind turbine system, but only if you have previous diy experience and know a lot about things such as wiring, using various tools and material, and fixing things properly to your roof.

The Cons about getting the guide:

* Confusing illustrations

The drawings were very poor. They were dull, incorrectly labeled, and not even scaled down properly.

* Rubbish Solar Panels

Since the diagrams and instructions were difficult to follow, the reader has to make too many assumptions resulting in a low-quality solar panel, if any at all.

* Poor maintenance advice

While I eventually got my wind generator to work, it ended up breaking after 2 months. This could have been prevented if I was given correct advice on how to effectively maintain the wind turbine.

* Customer support is really slow

On many occasions we required customer support to help us fill in the blanks. However, by the time we received a response we had forgotten what we had asked them for in the first place. By our experience, you can expect to wait on average 5 days for support.

Conclusion

Make Natural Power is like a cheap replica of Earth4Energy. It was poorly put together, lacked critical advice, and did nothing but frustrate me.

Tim McDonald recommends you rather try Earth4Energy for FREE, if you want to build a quality DIY Renewable Energy system and actually reduce your electricity bill.

As you will soon find out there are plenty of advertisements both online, and in magazines and newspapers offering wind generators for sale. However, before you rush out and invest in this new alternative energy supply for your home there are a number of things that need to be taken into consideration beforehand. Below we take a look at just what some of these are.

Factor 1 – Quality

Before you go out spending money on wind generators for sale you should look at the standard of finish. A good quality one may cost more initially, but will save you money in the long run as you won’t have to get it repaired so often because the blades have either jammed or malfunctioned. Go for those models where the manufacturer offers a warranty of 5 years or more on their products as this shows that they have confidence in what they produce and are willing to ensure that their profits remain high because they don’t use substandard materials.

Factor 2 – Determine How Much Electricity You Will Need Each Year

The quickest and easiest way to calculate this figure is by contacting your utility company and asking them provide you with a summary of your annual kilowatt usage. After obtaining this figure you are then in a better position to work out exactly what size wind generator you will need in order to provide ample amounts of energy annually to power your home.

After working out how much energy you will be using then you can choose what sort of generator to install. Ideally, look for those that offer a way of storing energy simply using a direct DC supply. Make sure you also purchase a separate inverter so that this stored DC energy can be transitioned over to an AC supply and power the appliances in your home. Avoid buying models which have a built-in inverter because if it becomes damaged it will cost quite a bit to replace as opposed to a stand alone inverter.

Factor 3 – What Planning Permissions Do You Need?

If you are intending to install a free standing wind generator then you will need to seek planning permission before you do. So before you make your purchase contact the local planning authority to determine exactly what criteria’s need to be met. However, if you are intending to install a small roof top wind generator then you may discover that permission to install is not needed.

Factor 4 – Cost

Of all the factors we look at in this article this is certainly one that should be on your mind at all times when thinking of buying one of the many wind generators for sale. The price that the seller is offering may look great, but have they provided a breakdown of costs for installation. Of course, you don’t have to consider these fees if you plan on installing the system yourself. However, there are other costs on top of the purchase price that you will need to include within your budget. You may need to have concrete foundations laid on which the free standing models can be placed. Plus, you will also need to take into consideration the cost of having the correct wiring installed so that the energy generated by your system doesn’t damage the appliances in your home when it uses your generator to power them.
