Harbor Freight usually has 45 watt arrays cheaper than anything else in that
power range. They put 3 15 watt panels together to do it. I use 60 watt
panels for alamr power on remote sites and new construction sites where AC
power has not been brought in yet, but they cost 5-600 with a charge
controller.

They grow in the ocean. You can recognize the plant as it has a very
thick trunk, about 12" in diameter with no bark and they grow on the
side of the ICW. Apparently preferring water with a depth of about 6
to 8 feet. They have either green or red flowers that are either
square or triangular in shape and often numbered. The fruit are
usually about 16" square with a 12 watt capability. Occasionally you
don't have to pick them as after a storm they will wash up on shore,
trunk and all. In Alabama you may have to fight off the Eagles to get
to them. |

If you don't want to expose yourself to who knows what fuel additives,
use charcoal lighter fluid. The is no reason to believe there is
anything in it but hydrocarbons.[give or take a bit of red dye.] Those
gas pumps have always been labeled 'for use as motor fuel only'., and
back when the stuff was leaded, it really was bad news.

No real surprise, they still use castor oil for lube, because it is
better in some ways [and not because it's cheap: it's not]

It won't come as a surprise to you, I don't suppose: Castrol is called
Castrol because they SOLD Castor oil. Still available - years ago, I
would fill up an MGA just for the lovely smell.
Though WWI pilots sitting behing castor lubricated rotaries, would
throw up at times - it has an emetic effect apparently.
