Thіѕ іѕ οn οf ουr nеw 55.7″ Paraboloids thаt produces аlmοѕt 2K οf solar power. Thеу аrе beasts whеn іt comes tο solar heating. I hope tο dο videos wіth Steam аnd Stirling Engines tο provide a working model thаt actually саn bе used tο produce ѕοmе power. Thеѕе boil 12 oz οf water іn under a minute. Still testing аnd wіll hаνе videos οn thаt soon. Please Rate thіѕ video аnd subscribe tο ουr channel.
I saw a similar … I saw a similar setup on a solar cooking website. The solar oven was rotated by a motor powered by solar cells. That setup also used photoreistors. Although if I remember right, it didn’t use a comparator. It just had a thing to shade the photoresistor when the oven was pointing at the sun. Sun moves, light hits photocell, resistance on photocell goes down, motor fires up, oven turns to face sun, photocell is shaded, motor stops. Very cool idea.

Google “Red Rock Energy Heliostats” and click on “LED3X Solar Tracker” to find diagram to build cheap solar tracker that controls satellite dish actuators to point dish to sun. You might even be able use the hot water from the solar dish to power an absorption chiller pulled from a propane fridge for air conditioning etc.

you may have heard that you shouldn’t look at the sun through binoculars and that’s a golf ball size area of light gathering. that dish is around 650 times bigger. you wont know what hit you

http://www.livingonsolar.com We use solar electric panels, a charge controller, batteries and an inverter to generate electricty for our home. See our hands on approach to how solar electricity works. Moreover, we tie our panels into our electric companies grid. When we produce too much energy our electric company actually pays us cash back. Not only...
FACT: There aren't enough resources on this planet to sustain continued human growth and increasing quality of life.
FACT: If we want to avoid catastrophic war, suffering, and global shortages of energy, we need to start looking to space seriously for solutions.
