Contact!

Just met with a fellow renewable energy DIYer, a local man who provides power for his family with a 16W solar array. He uses the power for charging his mobile phone, lighting his home and playing the radio. He also has ambitions to use it to pump water! This local man shares our enthusiasm for renewables and has been into it since 1998-longer than us! We will take a trip over tomorrow with the Asus Eee PC in the hope of using his solar set-up to power it.

Wish us luck! We are thinking we may have found a local Champion!
