truly belongs to us all. We must not let it
happen again." -Carl Sagan

Welcome to Backyard Power! Here you will
find some great backyard projects.
We've been working hard over the past couple
years coming up with some easy to build projects
to help save money on your utility bills.

| Our finished prototype of the Solar
Heater. Unit is 2' x 4' and puts out about
1000-2000 btu. Can reach temperatures of 168
degrees. Visit the gallery
for more details. |
We started on a solar concentrator
back in September and have had some really
interesting success with it. I'll post the details
here soon. Great for cooking food or heating
water. |
This little project will show you
how to build your own wind powered
generator. Our aim is to shoot for something
similar to the popular Air X 400 wind
turbine. |
