Here you can see online data from my testing 880Wp solar array and 600W wind turbine. On the final earthship greenhouse are going to be 1320Wp solar array and one 600W wind turbine and some thermocells. Those I still have to build and test.

It can take 10s befour any graph will show up. In case that graph will not show up, please try again in a few minutes.

This is example. Just a picture. If you want to see real online data wait till the frame above will load.

I installed new device for measuring wind speed and wind velocity. This will help me to determine how strong is wind in my area and what kind of wind turbine should I get.

The GIOM 3000 is capable of measuring wind speed, direction, humidity, temperature, pressure.

The only thing I will use is wind speed end direction. That is important for deciding in future where exactly I will place a wind tower and how high will the wind turbine go.

Graff that will show how much potential wind will generate with 600W wind turbine will come soon.

In summer i started testing my Aquaphonics system, that will be installed in greenhouse in future. I got several barrels nearly for free and I maked a siphon system. Than I bouth 12V pumps. Because I expected to have a source of electricity from solar panels.
I did set it up and start circulating water. I purchased 20 fishes and everything looked good.

And than problems started. My pump died. Luckily I had a backup pump installed. So I fishes were secure. I run to get a new pump and installed it. After several days new one died as well. This did repeat several times. After while I decided to go fro 220V pump and my problem disappeared.

In future green house I have to get really proper pups for 24V. My solar system is now 24V, but that is different story. And the pumps have to be really durable and high quality.

And Aquaphonics system has to be so setup, that when pumps stops pumping fishes will not die and flower will by flooded well.

Thanks good I did this experiment. :-)
