We're trying not to use too much leccie so it's not hat at the moment.
It started snowing yesterday, so I was sorting out the candles to make sure we had enough and knew where they were, can never find them once the power has gone out which it tend to do here when we get a lot of snow.
Whilst doing so we were talking about what a pain it is trying to do anything by candle light and about the chap who ran all his lights off of car batteries and car lights. I thought that sounds simple and too good to be true I'll ask on the forum to see if it's possible or not.
I was going to buy a solar pump for the polytunnel to set up a sprinkler system, and noticed that the solar part can also be used to charge batteries with, so it would also make buying the pump and solar panel more cost effective.
Many thanks everyone, I've got lots of links to look at on this thread now, no doubt I'll be back with more questions in due course.
I hope you're all warm and toasty where you are, have a lovely Sunday.
