Off-grid living anyone ?

lamar5292 · 10-28-2009, 08:06 PM

Is anyone living off-grid or using solar/wind power or want to learn how ?

I live in a solar and wind cabin I designed myself and built for under $2000.

It would make a great hunting cabin, guest house, or survival retreat.

Heres a video of my cabin:

Please ask questions or share ideas if interested.

That is really cool! Makes me want to have a cabin like this on a small piece of land where I can hunt. It's hard enough finding cheap housig where I live, let alone area with hunting land around it. I subscribed to your channel and look forward to some of your other videos.

Nice cabin. Welcome to the G&G.

Thanks a lot for sharing with us. That is an awesome setup, welcome to G&G. It was great the way you explained everything you did, guess now all I need to do is find a piece of land. Again thanks a lot for sharing.

That's a great video, It's also my dream to live off the grid. the big sticking point for me with living somewhere rural is what i'd do for work. work wise i'm pretty much trapped in the urban jungle.

Yup, working gets in the way a little bit with all the things I'd like to do also.

Welcome to G&G and thanks for sharing your video I would like to get a piece of property off of the grid in the future and build a similar setup as a hunting cabin and vacation place to get away from things for a while for those times when life sucks.
