We all know how frustrating it is to get to the end of the month and still have to pay that huge power bill, which unlike any other expense, there's no getting out of it. If you enjoy being warm (or cool), and you prefer NOT to eat raw food, you're at the mercy of the power companies.
They, on the other side, have the government to bail them out if they need some more money, and then raise our prices to cover it.
And we've all had that talk with the family:
Does it work? Of course not...
It only makes you feel bad for being the "cheap Dad" or the "AT&T Mom" (with the rollover minutes).
So what can you do about it?
Take measures into your own hand and produce your own RENEWABLE energy!
Screw the power company - you're your own generator!
For starters, a small wind generator can produce enough kW to keep a 3 bedroom house completely off-grid (depending on how windy it is where you live). There are companies that specialize in installing this for you.
Or, you can watch our friends' free video on building a wind turbine and begin your revenge against years of abuse in the hands of the power companies.
Or even better, you can try this very detailed DIY guide that gives you easy-to-follow instructions, so you can build a windmill powerful enough to slash your utility bill by at least 60%.
This is an example of what you're going to be building:
Pretty neat, huh?
